Friday’s ruling by the Supreme Court regarding abortion is showing the deep divide in our country. I have said for many years that the abortion decision created the “line in the sand” for this country. How to reconcile the two sides of the abortion issue when the 5th commandment is very clearly about murder. I am providing the statements by Cardinal DiNardo, the Texas bishops conference, and the American bishops conference regarding Friday’s decision. Following those comments, I am providing some action items that we, THE CHURCH, can do to build the kingdom of God. These action items are taken from the bishop’s document titled, Stading With Moms In Need.
