Just saying
The Winnipeg Free Press carries a report on statements issues by Roman Catholic Primate Oulettle (yes, that’s exactly the title given, which has to be the strangest use of the word primate considering the rejection of scientific evolution by the Catholic church. The gist of his point was abortion is always wrong, wrong, wrong and under any circumstances.
I get that, but if the catholic bishops ever had a hope of influencing people like me – who can come up with all kinds of scenarios where abortion can be perceived as a best case scenario; it would help if the catholic clergy stopped carrying the public water on this issue.
The optics are just too bad and downright sinister – given the Roman Catholic clergy has been filled, staffed and enabled serial pedophiles who have preyed mercilessly on children for generations to have any moral authority left to speak out against morality of abortion.
