When does life begin?
Blogger Irenaeus from the blog “Catholidoxy” puts to rest (and how!) the ridiculous notion that somehow the Church has in the past been unsure about when life begins. Check it out.
He lines up quote after quote after quote proving that:
1. The Church has always been against abortion.
2. While there may have been some debate about when the soul entered the body-none the less that body is a human body and thus is human life and it begins when the life of any organism begins: at conception. That’s not some arbitrary decision by the Vatican, that’s science.
Next time some poorly-catechized, unscientific, not-so-smooth talking political hack tries to pretend that “we’re just not sure”, you’ll have ammo.
