It's Christian to Kill! The travesty and sorrow that stems from the murder of preborn babies is something every Catholic should feel. To know that a child's life is snuffed out at the hands of a cruel abortionist is a sickening thought. What is even more sickening is that one of these cruel abortionists is employed by a Catholic hospital-a hospital that is protecting his job. Read today's commentary for more about this appalling story.             [ Read the full article here. ]                                                                                                                                                       NATIONAL PRO-LIFE T-SHIRT WEEKEND!

"No matter how much a life is diminished, no matter what suffering the person is undergoing, that life demands the greatest respect and care," Cardinal Burke, prefect of the Apostolic Signatura, told CNA. "It's never right to snuff out a life because it's in some way under heavy burden."                         Obama admin threatens second state for defunding Planned Parenthood Life Site News  New Hampshire has become the second state after Indiana to receive a strongly-worded rebuke from Obama officials for cutting off Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood. A state health official told New Hampshire Public Radio Wednesday that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services had warned his office that New Hampshire's defunding effort may have broken federal rules by depriving state Medicaid recipients of a qualified provider. Doc at Catholic hospital: "I perform abortions because I'm a Christian" Life Site News        After a Catholic hospital in Colorado refused to remove a Planned Parenthood abortionist from its ob/gyn staff, pro-life advocates have organized a protest, featuring Live Action President Lila Rose, on Aug. 4. "The reason I perform abortions is because I'm a Christian," Richard Grossman, a Quaker, told the Durango Herald after a similar protest outside Mercy Regional Medical Center last year.  "Personally, I believe in the strength, intellect and fortitude of women. When a woman says a fetus is a person, I think it is one. I believe the woman empowers the fetus."
