Continuing Outrage...

I'm receiving mail from women who continue to express their anger over the words and actions of leaders in the Roman Catholic Church.

Deborah Sandoval writes:

This is not a woman having an abortion, this is a child... somebody's baby who still plays with dolls.

The murder happened when this monster stole this child's innocence with the church further supporting this monstrosity with excommunication instead of prayer...

Jesus loves his children, isn't that what the song says? ...This is a child, a baby. She should have been protected...

Wasn't the rape enough? Should she be further victimized by a pregnancy that would be too heavy for her tiny body, doctors poking and prodding and then childbirth... Too bad the Archbishop can never know the reality of this.

Thank you, Deborah, for your well-expressed outrage.

I too wish the Archbishop could lie on a table and have someone poke around his insides as he suffered strong contractions... he truly has no idea what birth is, how traumatic for a grown woman, much less a child.

Here are some words of Jesus that Brazilian Archbishop Jose Cardoso Sobrinho, Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, and others at the Vatican should bear in mind:

Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me. If any of you put a stumbling block before one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for you if a great millstone were fastened around your neck and you were drowned in the depth of the sea.
--Matthew, chapter 18, verses 5-6.
