What has happened to childhood? What has happened to respect for families and their abilities to teach children morality? And why should an institute, let alone a Catholic institute, recommend introducing concepts and material regarding sexuality to very young children? It boggles the mind and sickens the soul.

Animals, especially those that are threatened or endangered, deserve our care and protection. But we must not close our eyes to humanity to life that grows within a woman’s womb. Defenseless babies are regularly killed and discarded without much thought or concern. It is time to stop their slaughter.
