No, Mrs. Dingle, You Can NOT Be Pro-Life AND A Hillary Voter

Background

Mandeville, LA – If you don’t study Philosophia Perennis but want a textbook case of illogic and pathetic Christian Ethics, then read this: “I’m pro-life. And I’m voting for Hillary. Here’s why.”

 “Everything Planned Parenthood has believed in and fought for over the past 100 years is on the ballot.”

If you’re voting for Hillary you are, by your informed consent, granting license to the taking of life that has already occurred (Mrs Clinton has supported NARAL publicly and legislatively since 1992) and the taking of life she has promised to continue to occur AND fund with your $$$ (the DNC Platform Hillary agreed to calls for a repeal of the Hyde Amendment). The teaching on this matter and the Reason it is imbued with are as clear as filtered water on what choices the “pro-life Christian” must make.

This point (that Mrs. Clinton’s candidacy IS specifically dedicated to the culture of death) can be proved by the statements made by the diabolical leaders of Planned Parenthood. Here, from the NY Times, is Celine Richards, President of Planned Parenthood: “Everything Planned Parenthood has believed in and fought for over the past 100 years is on the ballot.”

To this, Mrs Clinton said she was “‘honored’ by the endorsement and called the bill to defund the group ‘a jarring reminder of what’s at stake in 2016,” adding that as president she would “defend against attacks on reproductive health care, and protect access to affordable contraception and safe and legal abortion across the country.'”

[N.B. In some instances I replaced “Catholic” with “Christian” to defuse opposition to consuming the message.]

1. In Humanæ Vitæ, Pope Paul VI instructs the faithful, as The Vicar of Christ: “Though it is true that sometimes it is lawful to tolerate a lesser moral evil in order to avoid a greater evil or in order to promote a greater good,” it is never lawful, even for the gravest reasons, to do evil that good may come of it (18)—in other words, to intend directly something which of its very nature contradicts the moral order, and which must therefore be judged unworthy of man, even though the intention is to protect or promote the welfare of an individual, of a family or of society in general.” Furthermore, the Catechism of the Church, inerrant and infallible for +2016 years cannot be more clear:

“2272 Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave offense. The Church attaches the canonical penalty of excommunication to this crime against human life. “A person who procures a completed abortion incurs excommunication latae sententiae,”77 “by the very commission of the offense,”78 and subject to the conditions provided by Canon Law.79 The Church does not thereby intend to restrict the scope of mercy. Rather, she makes clear the gravity of the crime committed, the irreparable harm done to the innocent who is put to death, as well as to the parents and the whole of society.

2273 The inalienable right to life of every innocent human individual is a constitutive element of a civil society and its legislation:

“The inalienable rights of the person must be recognized and respected by civil society and the political authority. These human rights depend neither on single individuals nor on parents; nor do they represent a concession made by society and the state; they belong to human nature and are inherent in the person by virtue of the creative act from which the person took his origin. Among such fundamental rights one should mention in this regard every human being’s right to life and physical integrity from the moment of conception until death.”80

The moment a positive law deprives a category of human beings of the protection which civil legislation ought to accord them, the state is denying the equality of all before the law. When the state does not place its power at the service of the rights of each citizen, and in particular of the more vulnerable, the very foundations of a state based on law are undermined. . . . As a consequence of the respect and protection which must be ensured for the unborn child from the moment of conception, the law must provide appropriate penal sanctions for every deliberate violation of the child’s rights.”

2. Father John Caropi informs us: “In the past few months leading up to what may prove to be the most crucial presidential election in this country’s history, it is outright frightening how many Christians think they can vote for a pro-abortion candidate. As many of our good bishops have pointed out, under the current circumstances this is not possible. Abortion is the overridingly most important moral issue of our times, all others being important, but rendered irrelevant if the preeminent right—the right to life —is destroyed.

As Bishop Robert Vasa of Baker, Oregon recently pointed out, clarifying the teaching of the United States Christian Conference of Bishops in their excellent pastoral letter “Faithful Citizenship,” a candidate or office holder is disqualified from receiving the vote of a Christian in good conscience if they hold a pro-abortion position. In other words pro- choice candidates under the current set of circumstances are disqualified because of their pro-death political positions. We cannot vote for them. As the Bishops of Kansas recently asserted in their excellent voter’s guide, “Christians would ‘commit moral evil’ by voting for a candidate who supports abortion and other intrinsically evil things. Voting is a moral act, and voting for pro-choice candidates is evil in itself. One becomes a collaborator in evil by so doing. No amount of rationalization can escape this logical and moral conclusion.”

No, Mrs. Daigle, you are NOT “pro-life” and the damage you and others are causing, in the loss of human life, is incalculable. Oremus….
