Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.

The Pope is Counting on Us!
Dear Fellow Catholic,
On Monday, Pope Benedict celebrates the 5th anniversary of his election!
Please help give him the BEST gift ever -- 1 MILLION PRAYERS FROM THE UNITED STATES – by urging your family and friends to join you in the nationwide Easter Prayer Campaign for Pope Benedict!
This prayer campaign has come just in time . . . the full throttle assault by the main stream media on the Holy Father is only getting worse.
No one is doing more than Pope Benedict to promote and protect our Catholic identity. And yet the Holy Father "is systematically attacked precisely for what he does, for what he says, for what he is," as one writer put it.
It is clear at this point that the enemies of the Church, in trying to pull down Pope Benedict, are striking at the Church herself. It is our duty as Catholics to stand by the Church and the Holy Father, no matter the cost.
You can help make the Holy Father's 5th anniversary a date to remember... with a spiritual bouquet of 1,000,000 prayers!
We are almost there, with more than 850,000 prayers pledged in less than two weeks.
Please take a moment to forward this email to friends, put it on your blog, and post it on Facebook and Twitter. Call your family and friends and urge them to stand with the Holy Father!
Just think of it: 1,000,000 prayers for Pope Benedict XVI.
Thank you for standing with our shepherd, Pope Benedict XVI, as this storm continues to rage.
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle! And may God bless you and your family.
Yours in Christ,
The Cardinal Newman Society
