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.

President Biden’s inauguration poet has gained tons of coverage in
Catholic news, and for good reason. Amanda Gorman, a practicing Catholic
in the mold of Joe Biden, stars in a NowThis News video opposing the
wave of 2019 abortion limitations put in place by various states.
Action Item of the Week
Many
pro-lifers in the United States are focused on what is happening in
Washington, DC. They are worried about national and international
