Fr Paschal Ryan is setting a great pro-life example |

THURSDAY, 10 NOVEMBER 2011 Fr Paschal Ryan is setting a great pro-life example Fr Paschal Ryan, an episcopal vicar of the Catholic archdiocese of Westminster, was interviewed recently during a 40 Days for Life vigil outside the BPAS abortion centre in central London. Do watch the interview in full on YouTube. Among other things, Fr Ryan said: "[The situation of abortion] is a situation of great need ... We hope that by our prayers that somehow [God's] grace may be active, both upon the people who are providing this terrible thing [abortion], also upon the women who are tempted, and on those who create this whole culture of death in which we live; and we are all to some extent involved in this. And so by praying, and by praying for this situation, we are to some extent at least setting ourselves apart from this culture in which we find ourselves."Comments on this blog?

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.
