EWTN Catholic Q&A

Abortion
Question from Mary Marcome on 01-05-2013:

We wonder why the Church is so aginst the government on abortion issues? After all it is God who gives free will and the people who clamour for free choice get what they want! It is not the government's fault. You cannot please all and expect peace.

Answer by Judie Brown on 01-10-2013:

Dear Mary

The problem is really much simpler than that. If man choose to defy God and do evil, he will pay the ultimate price. Those of us who know this have an obligation to remind our brothers and sisters in Christ of this truth. If they still choose evil, then at least we have tried to teach the truth.

It has never been about the government; after all, Americans are the government.
