Modern technology ultimately helps those in the Pro-death camp face reality, unless they have eyes that cannot see.

  • ...one of the first doctors to change his allegiance was Paul Jarrett, who quit after only 23 abortions. His turning point came in 1974, when he performed an abortion on a fetus at 14 weeks’ gestation: “As I brought out the rib cage, I looked and saw a tiny, beating heart,” he would recall. “And when I found the head of the baby, I looked squarely in the face of another human being—a human being that I just killed.”

Let us pray that doctors and nurses will be enlightened and will be turned against the evils of abortion and euthanasia.

Amen. I have difficulty with the anger I feel in reading these things. I thank God that there is one less child killer in the world, but he still has willfully taken the lives of 23 children. Somehow, "sorry, I was wrong" doesn't quite cut it.

If he has repented and through his actions leads others to quit providing abortions and then to walk as a Christian, then this is good. As hard as it seems, we must welcome him and forgive his many sins. Who among us has not sinned?

Yes, you're right, Maria.
I just feel that a sin as heinous as abortion requires more than "sorry."
Child-killers are forgiven by the Church, yet forbidden from communing for many years, sometimes not until death.
Lord, have mercy.
