Bishops Wring Their Hands at the Whirlwind of Hell, by Monica M. Miller

By Monica Migliorino Miller, Crisis Magazine - Several years ago, after I taught a course on Church history, my students presented me with a gift. It was an 8-inch tall action-figure of Pope Innocent III they purchased from a novelty store in Frankenmuth, MI. A pope of the thirteenth century, Innocent III, besides approving the Rule of St. Francis, is also known for calling the Albigensian crusade.

New York Governor Justifies Legalizing Abortions Up to Birth: I’m Not Here to Represent Catholicism, by Doug Mainwaring

By Doug Mainwaring, LifeSiteNews - Governor Andrew Cuomo dug in his heels today, defending signing a law legalizing abortion up until birth while lashing out at Catholic bishops, some of whom increasingly speak of his future excommunication… “The Catholic Church doesn’t believe in a woman’s right to chose...I understand their religious view… I’m not here to represent a religion.”… “I’m here to represent all the people and the constitutional rights and limitations for all the people, not as a Catholic,” asserted the governor.

By Paul Kengor, American Spectator - With intentionally sweeping language, New York’s progressives have engineered one of the most hideous forms of death legislation in the Western world. I would say that their work would make ancient pagans blush, but even pagans of old would bristle at this blatant affront against innocent life. Worshippers of Baal, after all, didn’t have ultrasound machines.

By Lauretta Brown, Townhall - Many have been upset recently by New York’s new permissive abortion law that allows abortion “within 24 weeks from the commencement of pregnancy, or there is an absence of fetal viability, or at any time when necessary to protect a patient's life or health.”... However, New York’s law is not as extreme as the policies in the following seven states that have no, or little, restrictions on abortion and allow abortion up until birth, according to the Guttmacher Institute, a pro-abortion research and policy group.
