10/14/2008 12:01 PM The object of today’s rant are “Catholics” who support abortion, particularly those who hold public office. The position is really quite simple: the Church has always taught that it is murder to terminate an unborn child, finished. The magical moment when life begins is conception, finished. Ending a life prematurely and outside one of the few and very narrow exceptions (self defence for instance) is murder, finished.
You’d think that would settle the matter but you’d be very wrong. Some politicians of a certain strain seem to have very little difficulty reconciling their approval of the killing of an unborn with their supposed Catholic beliefs. Sometimes they’ll try and interpret a Church Doctor to justify why they think the way they do or twist the little bit of what they remember from catechism as a raw justification. Either way, their motivation is to appear Catholic to the electorate while being in sync with what their party expects of them and what they anticipate the electorate will appreciate.
Semantics and the mauling of the meaning of English words play a big part of it (‘what they really meant is...’), along with a big dose of moral relativism (‘things are different now of course’). Here’s a list of basic terms that might come in handy when identifying the sorts who sprout this drivel, occasionally one or more or all of the terms can apply:
• A heretic - someone who believes they have a better understanding of Church teaching than that of the universal as it has come down through the ages and deliberately states what conflicts with what the Church has always said (‘my interpretation of Saint Augustine is that…’)
• A proto-protestant – someone who believes that they have a personal relationship with God that gives some little boost of understanding apparently lacking in Catholic teaching (‘in my own private reflection and prayer, I’ve come to accept that…’)
• A fraud – someone who can reconcile their very anti-Catholic stance with their supposed Catholic identity when that identity is necessary for them to achieve something
• A wimp – someone who holds that though abortion might be wrong, it’s far too late to do anything about it and we might as well tolerate its continued practice.
The next question is why is this even tolerated? Why is there even an issue over whether the heretics, proto-protestants, frauds and wimps should be allowed to receive communion? That’s a whole topic for another post..

Re: Pro Choice and "Catholic"?
Fresh produce and flowers: these two have a lot of differences but there are some interesting parallels from the business side of things. Some items are regular and reliable — even with crazy weather conditions –
Moncler appearing like clockwork at just about the same time every year and progressing though the harvest season in a consistent, even predictable way. Others are impossible to predict, particularly in the early spring when the weather is at its worst. Case in point: artichokes. Regardless of our history and experience with the crop, it seems every year artichokes have a way of turning the most seasoned buyer into a doe-eyed novice. The same is true of field cut daffodils and prognosticating the true start of the springtime flower season.
Like many springtime bulb crops, cut daffodils have a greenhouse season and a field season. And while the greenhouse product tends to be easier to predict, field daffodils are larger, hardier and, generally, more desirable. Rain (and the associated cloud cover),Moncler Jackets temperature (air and ground), plant stage and harvest conditions will all conspire to influence scheduled harvest days. And because the season is so short and the window of optimal harvest conditions so narrow, the available supply can go from feast to famine and back again in a matter of days.Moncler Jacket
Cut tulips, on the other hand, are far more reliable since most of the product sold in flower shops, farmers markets and grocery stores is greenhouse grown. What’s more, because greenhouse growers have greater protection against wild weather swings.

Re: Pro Choice and "Catholic"?
I’ve long been glad that when I went to
Moncler Jackets in the 80s, I was at MIT rather than Harvard. Either place I would’ve taken hard classes and learned a lot, but one advantage of MIT was that we had no sense–no sense at all–that we could make big bucks. We had no sense of making moderately big bucks as lawyers, no sense of making big bucks working on Wall Street,Moncler Jacket and no sense of making really big bucks by starting a business. I mean, sure, we knew about lawyers (but we didn’t know that a lawyer with technical skills would be a killer combination), we knew about Wall Street (but we had no idea what they did, other than shout pork belly prices across a big room), and we knew about tech startups (but we had no idea that they were anything to us beyond a source of jobs for engineers). Moncler was famous for its fashion designs; and with the dedicated and diligence work,offering you and your loved ones original made within the EU wear,the top of the crane stand position.should take the time to choose the best price Moncler you.Mongol Empire as the equipment in 1954. I majored in physics, which my friends who were studying engineering thought was a real head-in-the-clouds kind of thing to do, not really practical at all.
Moncler Outlet really had no sense that a physicist degree from MIT degree with good was a hot ticket.
