Roe vs Wade

Today was the day that the unthinkable happened... back in 1973. 

January 22, 1973 Roe vs Wade.  The Supreme Court in Texas made abortion legal.  It's effect has changed the course of history of women's right to choose.

Choose what?  Life or death for their baby.  Not a ball of cells but a baby that was given to them by a loving God.

38 years of abortions equals 50,000,000 babies killed in the U.S. alone.  I don't even know the count world-wide but here, in the land of the free, we did this to ourselves.  Eyes wide open.  We believed the lies instead of the Word of God. 

"Truly children are a gift from the Lord; the fruit of the womb is a reward" (Psalm 127:3).

The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that, although “sin is a personal act, we have a responsibility for the sins committed by others when we cooperate in them” (CCC #1868).

The majority of Americans are Christian - Catholic and Protestant.  How could we have let the minority speak for us?

As a nation we are guilty.

Today is a good day to pray the rosary for life!
