The penalty of excommunication for abortion extends to the mother, all medical personnel, anyone who offers the mother moral or financial support to abort, as well as those who publicly campaign for legalized abortion. Incidentally, no formal notification of such excommunication is necessary, as it takes effect as soon as the action is performed. p. 77 The Catholic Answer Book vol 1, Rev. Peter M.J. Stravinskas PH.D S.T.D.It is also very easy (maybe too easy) for someone who has never been in a crisis pregnancy situation to criticize what a woman does when she is pregnant and alone. I can understand how someone can convince themselves its just a clump of cells and not a baby. It's a lot easier than you think. Being face to face with bills to pay, no one to support you, etc wears on you. Its hard for me to call it evil when a woman who is young and alone and scared has an abortion.
Would you buy that as an argument for abortion not being categorically evil? No? Then you shouldn't buy it with repsect to torture.
