Catholic Bishop Slams Gov Gretchen Whitmer: Killing Babies in Abortions is Not “Life-Sustaining”

April 29, 2020 breaking Comments Off on Catholic Bishop Slams Gov Gretchen Whitmer: Killing Babies in Abortions is Not “Life-Sustaining”

Michigan Catholic Bishop David Walkowiak called out Gov. Gretchen Whitmer this week for her deceptive claim about abortions being “life-sustaining.” “Two persons enter an abortion clinic. Only one comes out,” said Walkowiak, the bishop of the Diocese of Grand Rapids, in a statement. “Abortion is not life-sustaining.” His comments join growing criticisms of the pro-abortion Democrat governor’s handling of the coronavirus crisis. Whitmer’s restrictions are among the strictest of all state executive orders, and Michiganders have protested in large numbers in recent days. Her executive order 2020-42 restricts businesses, the sales of seeds, boating, travel to vacation homes and more. Wh

April 24, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – An leaked letter allegedly sent by the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to the presidents of bishops’ conferences inquiring about the experience with Pope Benedict XVI’s allowance of the traditional Latin Mass (Summorum Pontificum) has caused a stir in some traditionally-minded Catholic circles. Fears abound that the result of the survey could be a restriction of the Latin Mass. The traditional Catholic website Rorate Caeli published yesterday a letter dated March 7, 2020, with the name of Cardinal Luis Ladaria Ferrer, the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF), on it. The letter addresses the presidents of the bishops’ conferences and includes a set of questions to bishops whose due…Continue Reading

FORT WORTH, Texas, April 22, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) — The Thomas More Society has filed a lawsuit against the City of Fort Worth, Mayor Betsy Price, and two abortion vendors, seeking an immediate injunction to prevent abortion providers from consuming the personal protective equipment that is in short supply and desperately needed by the medical personnel on the front lines fighting the ravages of COVID-19 and the spread of the deadly disease.

Mayor Price’s April 7, 2020 stay-at-home order prohibits all elective medical, surgical, and dental procedures within city limits. Meanwhile, abortion…Continue Reading

Kentucky legislators pass pro-life bills, slam governor for failing to restrict abortion during COVID-19

April 19, 2020 breaking Comments Off on Kentucky legislators pass pro-life bills, slam governor for failing to restrict abortion during COVID-19

Two bills have passed the Kentucky legislature, and both have drawn the ire of the abortion industry. While both the state House and the Senate have approved the bills, Governor Andy Beshear has yet to sign them. House Bill 451 would give Attorney General Daniel Cameron the authority to ban abortions and enforce abortion restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic. It also classifies abortion as an elective procedure. According to Sen. Whitney Westerfield, this bill wouldn’t need to be passed if Beshear had taken action. “If he would actually step up and do the job he’s been elected to do and enforce his own order, we wouldn’t have to put this language in this bill,” he said to WFPL. AG Cameron likewise sa
