Abortion Supporters Score Political Points with Fake News

Commentary by Susan Brinkmann, OCDS

Abortion supporters are resorting to all kinds of fabrications to manipulate public opinion in the wake of the overturning of Roe v. Wade. The story of a 10-year-old girl impregnated through rape who was forced across state lines for an abortion, and claims that women with ectopic pregnancies who seek abortions may end up behind bars, are just two examples of the kind of baseless hysteria we can all expect in the months ahead.

The greatest truths

July 10
“Our sensible appetites, inclined to sensuality and to sloth, need to be vivified by contact with the virginal body of Christ, who endured most frightful sufferings for love of us. We, who are always inclined to pride, to lack of consideration, to forgetfulness of the greatest truths, to spiritual folly, need to be illumined by contact with the sovereignty luminous intellect of the Savior, who is ‘the way, the truth, and the life.'”
-Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange, The Three Ages of the Interior Life

The Eucharist is Christ

July 8
“…Fourteen years later, God opened my heart to consider the claims of the Catholic Church. The Church taught that Jesus meant what He said to the Jews in John, Chapter 6: ‘Unless you eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed’ (John 6:53-55).
I finally realized that if the Eucharist is Christ, there is no where else on earth to be but the Church our Savior established and for which He gave His life, and through which He gives us His very self — Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity — as our Food.”
-Rosalind Moss, Mother Miriam of the Lamb of God, O.S.B.
