  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

"Best" how? Better to kill than to face social stigma? *sigh* I always wonder what people are thinking. Where were her parents? Too often, parents leave children in such abject fear of being punished for pregnancy that the children are unable to imagine that they could get any kind of help or comfort from their parents...

Crystal, peace be with you,

I pray that she may come to realize the error of her mistake. Perhaps this may be an opportunity for you to be there for her and help explain to her why you believe what you believe.

May the Lord give you His peace!

Dear Crystal:

Please pray and then read this book:

Real Choices
by Frederica Mathewes-Green
and available
here

This book was endorsed by several Catholic groups and I read it for my college paper on abortion.

Many women (and teens) who have abortions become depressed and suicidal when they begin to realize that they have killed their own innocent baby. They become so remorseful that they don't even realize that God can forgive.

Please pray and read this book which has so many good insights on ways to reach women who have aborted. After reading this book, I earned an "A" on my college paper and my teacher was visibly affected.

Lovingly in Christ our God,
Elizabeth
