A Unique Approach to the Abortion Question

Abortion is muder.

In the tradition of Peter Maurin, founder of The Catholic Worker Movement, let us clarify, though.

Pro-life: 1 + 1 = 3. A mystery.

Pro-choice: 1 + 1 = 0 . A cold, hard fact. Let us be a mysterious people of God.

Barack Obama damnedly supports “The Freedom of Choice Act” (FOCA). John McCain speaks for and defends unborn life.

We, the American people, are viscerally aware of a loss of truth in our national life. I suggest this ethical loss began when our laws legalized abortion.

Those who favor abortion should seek the truth in the following well thought out and comprehensive phraseology:

The following is not a prayer, it is a definition of prayer or what takes place between creator and created.:

-Speaking to an unseen being: God the Father.

-Recognizing and being aware of his creation; recognizing the beauty of our bountiful earth, and being aware of his creation, other people: God the Son.

-Acknowledging that the harmony of one’s thoughts with one’s environment is of God: God the Holy Spirit.

I am a lifelong communicant of Saint Mary of the Assumption Roman Catholic Parish.
