More from St. Joseph’s

February 26, 2009 by Andrea Mrozek 2 Comments

The discussion continues over at this post . Thank you again to one and all for your thoughtful comments.

Today I’m drawing attention to this.

[The mother] explained to London Bishop Ronald Fabbro in a chance meeting on January 20, 2009 that she was pressured to terminate her pregnancy by 5 doctors at the Catholic hospital and by the hospital ethicist Fr. Michael Prieur, despite the fact that neither her life nor health were in danger.

More commentary from me to follow on the weekend.

Lest we forget

What with the Olympics and all, it it always a good time to remember the brutality of Chinese Communism:

Arzigul Tursun, six months pregnant with her third child, is under guard in a hospital in China’s northwestern Xinjiang region, scheduled to undergo an abortion against her will because authorities say she is entitled to only two children, according to the Uyghur Human Rights Project.

Rebecca asks: Why is this woman not eligible for refugee status somewhere in the civilized world?

____________________________
HAPPY UPDATE: It appears she has been released – without having to undergo the abortion – because of international pressure.

And the verdict is?

March 14, 2008 by Tanya Zaleski Leave a Comment

A man was jailed Thursday on charges he forced his 7-year-old daughter to kill the family cat by holding a knife in her hand and making her stab the pet.

Read the full story here.

It’s disturbing, to say the least. The man certainly deserves to be held accountable for this heinous act. But no matter what the final verdict and sentencing is on this case, I will be distraught to hear it.

Here is some old news about another father forcing his daughter to kill; this time to have an abortion.

…police found a .22-caliber rifle, duct tape and rope in the parents’ car.

Under the agreement, the couple will avoid jail time and the assault charge will be dropped once they complete counseling…

So, you see, if the sentencing on the new case is light, justice isn’t served. And if it’s heavy, the verdict is out on the value of human life.  But that message might just be loud and clear already.
