Abp Chaput's Sermon | National Catholic Reporter

Abp Chaput's Sermon | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Cold blooded or not, the Feminist defense of abortion is exactly as he states it.  Feminists, however, are a minority.  The rest of us believe that government is no more capable of banning abortion than it is designing a health care web site.  Sadly, both Chaput and O'Malley missed the obligation to not only provide adoption to women who cannot handle raising a child - but to find a way to enable them to raise the child - both economically and spiritually - without resorting to adoption.  Women who have abortions don't so much want to assert a bodily integrity right as they are reacting to the prospect of a bleak future - for themselves and the child.  Indeed, the clerical abuse scandal has pretty much poisoned the williness of many to trust the Church for anything having to do with children.  Indeed, the Catholic Foster Care system seems to be a system designed to procure white babies from teens for favored parishoners who are childless.  That accussation is not without proof.  As for Chaput chaning is tune, I don't see it.  He went from Denver to Philadelphia (and probably an eventual red had when Rigali dies) by being a cultural warrior.  Why would he change his stripes now?
