Bishops Reiterate Constant Church Teaching Against Abortion
Bishops Reiterate Constant Church Teaching Against Abortion
During an August 24, 2008, interview on NBC's Meet the Press, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi misrepresented the history and authority of Church teaching concerning abortion. Bishops from across the country have responded to the speaker, and upheld the Church's constant teaching that procured abortion is a grave moral evil. Please see the links below for the full statements.
Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable.
Catechism of the Catholic Church
Paragraph 2271
