Pope Francis rejects abortion in cases of rape: It’s never okay to hire ‘assassin’ to solve ‘problem’
Left-wing journalist Jordi Évole posed an extreme theoretical case (to Pope Francis) of a girl victim of
trafficking who is impregnated as a result of rape. When the journalist
asked if the Pope could understand the girl’s choice to end her child’s
life, the Pope said, “I would understand her desperation, but I also
know that it is not licit to eliminate a human life in order to solve a
problem.”
When Évole countered, “And in one of those extreme cases?” the Pope asked, “Is it licit to eliminate a human life to solve a problem? Is it licit to hire someone to eliminate [the baby]? The answer is yours, not mine.” Évole refused to answer, saying, “No, I have not come to answer. I am going to try to get as many answers from you that I can.”
The Pope went on to say, “But you can’t leave her in the street,” adding, “Thank God, in the last 10 years, 15 years, there has been much attention paid to these cases, of girls who are by themselves who are becoming mothers, and there has been undertaken a great work of accompaniment, of giving them dignity.”

Oh, oh, there goes the Abortion Party's marketing efforts!!! Have many of you noticed that the Democratic Party makes a "woman's right to choose" a huge part of its marketing effort? Raising funds on this premise is the textbook definition of evil.
Throwing a woman in prison for having an abortion is no more absurd than helping her kill her her baby so you can have sex with her. Both are wrongful imprisonments.
Bee here:
I heard a priest on the radio say recently a woman does not own the child in her womb...to own another human being is slavery. I thought that was a pretty good observation.
God bless.

Not long ago a woman was jailed in England for aborting her child. Abortion is a criminal offence unless carried out in accordance with the 1967 Act. Admittedly the law has been interpreted in such a broad way as to amount to 'abortion on demand' which MPs were told would never happen.
