Abortion promoters see man as just an animal, Spanish bishop warns
A Catholic news article has an interesting insight:
.- Bishop Jose Ignacio Munilla Aguirre of Palencia warned this week that the recent arrests of personnel at various clinics in Barcelona where illegal abortions up to the eighth month were being performed confirms that the defenders of abortion see man as just an animal.
“When we answer the question about what man is, we must make a choice with our response: either we consider him to be a merely material being, a simple animal—albeit more evolved than anything else—or on the other hand we discover in him a spiritual principle that makes him essentially different from any animal species. Undoubtedly the defenders of abortion are in the first group,” the bishop warned in article entitled, “Little Angels for Heaven.”
“Of course, they will claim that ‘that’ is nothing more than a piece of flesh, and not a person. If we take abortion to its ultimate consequences, we are left with the question of the spirituality or materiality of man. Does the human soul exist?” the bishop stated.
Bishop Munilla noted that the reports about the abuses at the clinics in Barcelona have been very disturbing to many people. “The blender connected to the drain pipe, the falsified scans to cover up abortions in the seventh or eighth month of pregnancy, etc, were just too bloody to be ignored. However, in this age of media impact, there is a risk that the issue of abortion will be limited to the size of the fetus or the clandestine mafias of this ‘industry.’ It seems like the question of the good or evil of abortion depends on the respect of determined limits,” the bishop said.
I talk about this a little bit in the pro-life book I’m writing. What separates us from the beasts is that we have compassion for the disabled and vulnerable. Pro-aborts are often atheists, with some exceptions like pro-life atheists George Orwell, Pearl S. Buck, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Nat Hentoff, while most people who believe in God are pro-life. That makes sense, but natural law tells us that even atheists have to follow some laws, like don’t kill.
