Joe Biden is a baptized Catholic who is Pro-Choice. Sounds like a paradox, well it is! During his recent talk at Georgetown University he stated, “You know there is no excuse for violence against a woman or child. There is no excuse.” Well guess what Joe, abortion is not only violence committed against a child but also women!
Some reported post-abortion symptoms:
- Depression
- Guilt
- Intense grief / sadness
- Anger / rage
- Emotional numbness
- Eating disorders
- Lowered self esteem
- Drug and alcohol abuse
- Nightmares and sleep disturbances
- Difficulty with relationships
- Anxiety and panic attacks
- Fear / ambivalence of pregnancy
Rachael’s Vineyard is an organization within the Catholic Church, which helps women who have had abortions heal emotionally. A good resource indeed.
The woman in the landmark Roe V Wade case in 1973, Norma McCorvey, is now pro-life and regrets her abortion. Mrs. McCorvey has become outspoken against abortion.
Some other pro-life thoughts:
Madonna – “I was stunned when I saw on the ultrasound a tiny, living creature spinning around in my womb. Tap-dancing, I think. Waving its tiny arms around and trying to suck its thumb. I could have sworn I heard it laughing.” - (“World Magazine” December, 1996)
Brooke Shields, Actress and Supermodel: “Too many people use abortion as a form of birth control. And that’s very wrong. I could never, ever have an abortion.” (Source: Redbook Magazine, 8/91)
Eric Clapton: Musician: “It sounds strange for me to be saying this, but I’ve come around to the idea that sex really is for procreation.”(Source: You! Magazine, 8/95)

I grew up and still live in Northern New Jersey. I was born and raised Catholic, coming from an Italian-American home. I was educated in both a Catholic High School and College but never really gave my faith any real thought. I guess you can say I was not practicing the faith in my everyday life. After making some bad choices, heartache, and searching for truth, I realized the fullness of the Catholic faith has it all! As a result of my discovery, I've never looked back.Today I work on Wall Street. I'm a Lay Associate with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, who are based in the Bronx and serve the material poor. I also am a full time volunteer with the Missionaries of Charity in New York City, the order Mother Teresa founded, working every Saturday at a home which serves as a hospice for men with AIDS. I have also traveled alone, as well as organized mission trips to Kolkata, India to serve the poorest of the poor. If you are interested, give me a shout! I will be going again this December for two weeks!
