NEW ARCHBISHOP OF CHICAGO SPEAKS ON ABORTION

CHICAGO, Oct 15 (LSN) - Cincinatti Right to Life reported in their October News that Chicago Archbishop, Francis George, has redefined the approach to dealing with abortion. Rather than equating the importance of abortion with as many as 12-16 social issues, the Archbishop gave the abortion holocaust priority over all other social issues.

He stated: "Abortion is no more a single issue than was slavery. It is instead a defining issue -- one which shapes the future of the nation. The present legal policy of abortion-on-demand, which permits even the killing of infants being delivered, weakens the social contract that has kept this country together. To cooperate willingly in evil is morally wrong, and our present laws make us all at least passive cooperators in the crime of abortion."
