The Catholic Church teaches otherwise. |
You don’t seem deeply educated in the history of Catholicism. It’s not a cult, you can question the insane changes the men of the church make especially when it’s not rooted in Jesus’s teachings, I’m sorry you think Catholicism is a cult. |
You mean some of the men of the Catholic Church teach otherwise. Some think Noah was real, some think it’s a parable. Same with Adam and Eve. |
Please explain to me how one can question what the Vatican says. |
Not really. Download a .pdf of their catechism and ctrl f for any questions you have. It’s all there. The Catholic Church makes no mystery of what it holds to be true. |
Read again; they haven’t done away with the abortion tribunal, although it isn’t composed of 3 doctors. Why does that rubber stamp give you comfort vs the woman making the best decision for herself? This is so degrading to women. |
Not pp, but what makes you think that comment was supposed to be relevant to the Catholic Church’s view on reproductive rights? |
Plenty of women regret their abortion |
And? |
Saudi Arabia is one country with about 35 million people. Muslims around the world number 1.8 BILLION. Saudi Arabia is hardly representative of the whole Muslim world. It is just one small country that happens to be the most conservative. |
Catholics are not taught to take the Bible literally as the word of God. If they were they’d be fine with abortion since there’s a recipe for it in the Old Testament. |
Less than 5% of American women who have an abortion regret it. https://time.com/3956781/women-abortion-regret-reproductive-health/ |
And? The overwhelming majority of women do not regret their abortion. They really don't. |
So let's set our standards higher in the US of A... not lower. The fact remains is that many fundamentalist Christians in America are no better than fundamentalist Muslims in the ME. They're just as misogynistic and cruel. |
That’s the thing about the pro-choice movement vs the forced birth movement. The pro choice movement want those women to continue their pregnancies and have a healthy baby. They put things in place to allow that to happen like shelters from abuse, education in schools, WIC, free preschools, subsidized daycare and laws around not getting fired for being pregnant. It’s pro-choice not pro abortion. The R cut funding for all of those programs and contraception forcing more women to have abortions. That’s why they are NOT pro life they are pro birth. |
