- Update 10/21/08 - LifeNews: George Soros Funds Catholic Groups Making Obama Seem Pro-Life on Abortion
Regrettably I have little time to blog right now, but I'd like to at least draw attention to an outstanding pro-life leader in the Roman Catholic Church, Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, about whom the Family Research Council commented (my emphases):
In a passionate speech on what it means to be "pro-life," Archbishop
Charles Chaput spoke Friday about the disservice done by Christian
voters who
are abandoning the abortion issue. More churchgoers seem to be twisting
faith to fit their politics instead of evaluating candidates through
the lens
of faith. Speaking as a private citizen, Chaput talked about the crisis
of conscience in this election. "I believe that Senator Obama, whatever
his
other talents, is the most committed 'abortion-rights' presidential
candidate of either major party since the Roe v. Wade
abortion decision
in 1973. Despite what [others] suggest, the party platform Senator
Obama runs on this year is not only aggressively 'pro-choice,' it has
also removed
any suggestion that killing an unborn child might be a regrettable
thing. To suggest-as some Catholics do-that Senator Obama is this
year's 'real'
pro-life candidate requires a peculiar kind of self-hypnosis, or moral
confusion, or worse." For more, please read Professor Robby George's
