LONDON, ON, June 5 (LifeSiteNews.com) – LifeSite has just completed a comprehensive page devoted to the March of Women controversy.  The page outlines the chronology of events and provides many articles, documents and other evidence on the controversy.

In the latest news on the March another bishop has come out in favour of the March of Women and again bashed pro-lifers.  In a statement, much of which seems similar to comments recently made by Bishop Fred Henry of Calgary, Bishop John Michael Sherlock of the Diocese of London, Ontario,  said “If the pro-life people had their way, we would all be living in a ghetto, and crying about how unclean the rest of the world is.”

Further comments by the bishop attack pro-lifers in unusually harsh and uncharitable terms.  “There are people who have their own particular agenda and unless the whole Church follows them they sit in negative judgment. The example that I would use is this: if a woman is drowning in a pond, and there are two women standing beside that pond, and they look at one another and say,  ‘Shall we pull this woman out?’ And one says, ‘Of course, we should.’ So she begins, but the other one says, ‘I’m sorry, but in conscience I cannot work with you because you are in favour of abortion.’”
