GIRL: |
How could it ever be easy? |
|

Fr. David: |
The Church is against abortion because abortion
is an act of violence. It ends the life of a human being who has been
created in the image and likeness of God. God gives life... and only
He can take it away. If we could take it away from others, we would
be making ourselves into God. |

GIRL: |
I guess I never thought of it that way. That's
interesting. |
|
| |
Fr. David: |
Now God has expressed this to us in His commandment,
"Thou shalt not kill." So on the one hand, we know that
killing is wrong. |
|
| |
GIRL: |
And... on the other hand? |
|
| |
Fr. David: |
On the other hand, people do things under all
sorts of pressure, and we don't know what is going on in their mind
or what they are feeling. So, only God knows exactly how guilty they
are, and whether or not their action has put them in danger of going
to hell. |
