DEACON FOR LIFE

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.

Pennsylvania will be one of the fiercest battleground states

in the Presidential race, and a key to winning the White House

By Maria V. Gallagher, Legislative/PAC Director

“Get out the pro-life vote” efforts are intensifying in the Keystone State, where much is at stake in this year’s hotly-contested election. Pennsylvania is considered one of the fiercest battleground states in the Presidential race, and a key to winning the White House. But in addition to efforts to ensure that the Commonwealth’s 20 electoral votes go to pro-life President Donald J. Trump, pro-life advocates are working feverishly to elect good, strong pro-life allies up and down the ballot. READ MORE

Inside the Abortion Mindset:

Illogical and Slippery

by Bonnie Finnerty, Education Director

It was a huge admission: a pro-abortion professor conceding that we are living human beings from the moment of fertilization. How then could he justify abortion, the deliberate killing of that human life?

In a recent debate co-sponsored by Harvard Right to Life and Massachusetts Citizens for Life, Peter Singer laid out his case in defense of abortion, while pro-life apologist Stephanie Gray Connors offered strong argumentation against it. It was a robust but civil exchange of opposing viewpoints. By the end, the absurdity of the argument for abortion was evident. READ MORE

LIFE IS SACRED

An example of the traditional magisterial teaching which indicates that it is never morally licit to intentionally kill a child through abortion in order to “save the life of its mother” comes from the teaching of Pope Pius XII:

“Every human being, even the infant in the mother's womb, has the right to life immediately from God, not from the parent or any human society or authority. Therefore, there is no man, no human authority, no science, no medical, eugenic, social, economic or moral ‘indication’ that can show or give valid juridical title for direct deliberate disposition concerning an innocent human life-which is to say, a disposition that aims at its destruction either as an end in itself or as the means of attaining another end that is perhaps in no way illicit itself. Thus, for example, to save the life of the mother is a most noble end, but the direct killing of the child as a means to this end is not licit.”
