Some of you have seen this powerful and pointed homily by Father John T. Lankeit, the Rector of the Cathedral of Sts. Simon and Jude in Phoenix. If you have not seen it yet, then take the twenty minutes and listen to it.
In the time of that homily, over thirty children were aborted in the United States and it was a Sunday!
Just over one year ago, I wrote on this blog to my fellow Canadians, particularly Catholics on the matter of voting for Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party. Whilst the Conservatives, under Stephen Harper, did nearly nothing (except remove funding for foreign abortions) to advance the cause of Life, Justin Trudeau and the Liberals were and are actually hostile to it. To run as a candidate one must have signed in writing to support the pro-abortion position of the Prime Minister and Party. Those Members of Parliament already elected had to agree not to ever raise the matter. The Conservatives, at least, had no policy which was at least neutral. In Canada, there is absolutely no law restricting abortion and the child does not become a "person" in law until it is detached from the mother. A baby can be murdered in Canada in the womb up to the moment of birth. Now we have euthanasia. America, it will come to you.
My American friends, Catholics in particular. This is what Hillary Clinton advocates for your land.
Donald J. Trump is far from a perfect candidate. He is a man with flaws and some serious ones. Who does not have flaws. Some of what he is accused of doing in his past is repugnant. Some of his statements are condemnable. Some of what has come out are lies. The fact is, we do not know the truth.
What we do know, what you know, is that he has stated that he will appoint judges to the Supreme Court that will be Pro-Life. From there, the SCOTUS can deal with it. You must take him at his word, that is all you have.
Americans, you have a "choice."
Make the right one or bear responsibility for what you do.
