DUBLIN — Ireland's Catholic bishops have urged lawmakers to block a government bill that would permit exceptional abortions to protect the lives of women.
The
bishops "argue that the bill is not necessary to protect women".
Indeed. And what will protect them? The bishops? Hardly. There is no
other course of action. The choice is stark: terminate the pregnancy or
die.
The bishops choose "die". Every day, in every way, the Catholic church shows its hatred for women.
