It's you that I give thanks for when I pray.: just saw a bumper sticker that informed me I can't be Catholic AND pro abortion...

intellectualhoodrat:

good thing I’m not an extremist and I’m pro choice… almost lost my religion there… still got some questions though:

Can i be baptist and pro- abortion?

what about protestant?

are there people running around all “abort ALL the unborns?”…

who the hell are these…

Yeah, we have another name for pro-choice Catholics: heretics.

In reference to 1/3 of my generation being killed…

US births in 1991 (the year I was born): 4,111,000

US (reported) abortions in 1991: 1,388,937

Total: 5,499,937

aborted babies divided by total = .2525 or 25.25%

I correct my statement to 1/4.
(Please take note, however, that the reported number of abortions does not include illegal abortions or abortions performed by “doctors” with expired or revoked licenses.)

Today, I am silent.
I am in silent solidarity with my brothers and sisters who were not as lucky as I. God blessed me with my parents. Even in an unplanned teenage pregnancy, they saw the goodness in my tiny new life. If I had different parents, my life may have been at great risk of being snuffed out.
I, quite literally, have survived the abortion holocaust. Satan tried to kill me, but he failed. And now, I will stop at nothing to stand where my brothers and sisters cannot and defend the sanctity of all human life, from womb to tomb.
Today, I am alive. But because 1/3 of my generation is not, today, I am silent.

Right to Life: Praying outside of an abortion clinic

prolifeadvocate:

This morning I went with a group of Catholic students from my university to pray in front of our local abortion clinic as part of the 40 Days for Life movement. The experience was nowhere near as intense as the one I had outside of Planned Parenthood in DC, but it was still great to participate.

Reblog if you’re not pregnant.

jamiieex12:

Okay, I get that this is a joke but really people? Is this the worst thing that could happen to you? Your body could be doing something absolutely amazing—incubating a new life. Yeah, that sounds terrible. 

How about “reblog if your parents don’t beat you” or “reblog if you’re not homeless” or “reblog if you’re not a paraplegic”? 

You know why this bothers me so much? It shames women who are pregnant, or who will be in the near future. It sends out the message that pregnancy is a problem to be eliminated as soon as possible. 

I’m sure there are/were girls in your high school that are/were pregnant, mine included. I heard people talk about her all the time, and often it wasn’t very nice things. One of my friends told me that she knew of several people in our high school who had gotten abortions. And guess what, no one was talking badly about them. How backwards is that?? The young women that chose life should be praised for their bravery, not treated as outcasts and shunned!

Excuse me for using this little post to rant. Apparently I had some thoughts I needed to get out.

So yesterday when the presidential address came on

I semi-payed attention but soon realized that I cannot take anything Obama says seriously.

Or maybe it’s more like, I can’t pay attention to what he’s talking about because I’m too busy being flabbergasted that he can even live with himself.

How can you just stand there so calmly and talk about money, Mr. President? How can you look yourself in the mirror? How are you able to sleep at night? How does your stomach not turn over every time you remember your sick, twisted morals? How do you look your daughters in the eye and tell them it’s okay to kill unborn children? 

HOW, MR. PRESIDENT?? I am disgusted that you are my president. I am embarrassed by your representation of America, which is supposed to be a land of hope and freedom. I am lucky enough to have the right to say you’re an idiot. I am even luckier to have the right to my own life. 

Mr. President, I would give back this right in a heartbeat if you would instead give it to the unborn. I will give away my life if you will give them a chance at one. I mean it. Kill me before you kill them. Please.

Wild Things Say Wild Things: Saw the most ignorant bumper sticker today.

ktthumbson:

It read; “You can’t be CATHOLIC and be PRO-ABORTION.”

Well, a bumper sticker can’t tell me what I can and can’t be. I’m a confirmed catholic, and while I wouldn’t say I’m pro abortion, But I’m pro-choice. And bumper stickers and beliefs like that were what made me question my faith and almost…

Nope, you can’t be pro-choice and Catholic because that’s heresy against the Church, which leads to automatic latae sententiae excommunication. 

You have to be communion with the Pope to be Catholic. Period.

Catholics for Choice agitate me to no end.

humblemejesus:

You aren’t Catholic if you’re pro-choice. Heck you aren’t a follower of Christ if you’re pro-choice.

Amen.

(pro-choice = heresy = latae sententiae excommunication = not Catholic)

Anonymous asked: what about abortions in cases when the mother's life is in danger?
do you believe in boycotting companies that support PP?

For abortion cases concerning the mother’s health, please see this post on my pro-life tumblr.

And yes, I boycott companies that give money to Planned Parenthood and so do many of my friends and family members.

And for the sake of not depressing my tumblr, please direct abortion questions to that tumblr. Thanks!

Right to Life: Why I am Pro-Life

prolifeadvocate:

I don’t remember when I found out what abortion is. I’m sure my parents or Sunday school teachers told me. As long as I can remember I have been completely horrified and known in my heart that it is wrong and what my Church teaches about it. As I learned more in school about biology and the nature…

If you care to read about why I am pro-life, here ya go!
