so what constitutes promoting abortion?
well, i would say VOTING
for someone who is pro abortion is one answer...
Obami is the most pro abortion person in gov't... once voted AGAINST a bill that would protect babies born live in abortions...
& if i recall correctly, he was the ONLY one who voted against it!!
geez... demonic |

the CatholicChurch teaches it is ALWAYS
morally WRONG
to kill someone
Do we normally kill someone on the off chance it may save the life of someone else?
who is to judge who is the most important person???
in these tricky cases
the Church may take a case by case attitude???
i don't really know
But it is never OK to murder someone
and besides... if an unborn child causes some health risk to the mother... why couldn't the child be removed ALIVE?
babies are living after premature birth
at earlier and earlier stages of developoment |

the Catholic Church teaches that you should do all you can to save both mother and child, at times the child will be removed if that is the only treatment for the mother, the goal is not the death of the child but rather treating the mother. Like if the child has to be delievered early, you still do all you can to save the child but you also do all you can to save the mother Triage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Thank you. I am trying to see how the stances for Orthodox Judaism and Catholic teaching line up to see what common ground we have. Unfortunately, I think we start at a bad point since Judaism does not consider abortion to be murder based upon passages in the Torah. Sad. |

Edit: Thank you Rhamiel.
