Interesting....

In cruising through my blogs I found this little gem: A Blog about Obama and Abortion. The blurb on Pontifications said this.


In the Chicago Tribune today, Kmiec gives his take on the Obama meeting, which Kmiec attended.

Not to understand that there is more than one rather indirect and elusive judicial way to address an intrinsic evil understates the ingenuity of the devout. Describing the abortion decision as a "difficult, deeply moral one," Obama sees it as one only the woman can make. Unless her choice affirms life that is not my Catholic view, and I told him so. But disagreement or not, it is abundantly clear from our conversation that Obama shares a common aspiration to reduce the incidence of abortion. How? Obama is committed to encouraging "responsible sexual behavior," discouraging unwanted pregnancies, promoting adoption as a more viable, affordable and appealing option than it presently is, and putting off limits in a manner consistent with the law as the justices see it, late-term abortion. Obama will not exclude abortion from medical coverage to fulfill a health exception "rigorously defined."


This is what I've been trying to explain to people. Changing the law, ultimately won't do boo-diddly-squat. We have got to change people's minds. Give it to them logically. Print bumperstickers that say: "If you're not ready for a child keep your legs together".
