Safety of women in Catholic hospitals questioned by top bioethicist
By
"...Bishop Thomas Olmsted excommunicated Sister Margaret McBride, an administrator at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix, after her action in agreeing that the life of an 11-week-old fetus be terminated to save the life of the mother...""Even the Catholic Church, whose official doctrine demands that women be sacrificed in order to preserve fetal life, has for many years made no attempt to impose such a draconian policy upon its vast network of hospitals in the United States. Until last week. In a radical move that is likely to inflame the abortion debate even further and, more disturbingly, to endanger the lives of millions of expectant mothers...”
By this decision Bishop Olmsted devalues the lives of mothers, and raises real questions about the safety of women in Catholic hospitals. This is yet another reason the Catholic Church desperately needs Roman Catholic Womenpriests and bishops! As a woman religious, I admire Sister Margaret McBride for her courageous ethical decision. Once again, it appears that the nuns are leading the way.

It's human life, not a "fetus."
Shame on you for devaluing the humanity of this defenseless child of God. Lucifer has overpowered you to support his evil deeds.
Your lack of intellectual acumen is showing. Fetus is the correct term for an unborn child between two months gestation and birth. The word "fetus" is from the Latin for "young one" and has been used in this context for literally hundreds of years.
Your ignorance devalues the humanity of the unborn far more than the use of correct terminology.
You handmaid of the devil... fetus is a term used by you satanists to devalue the life of the unborn child. You need to get on your knees and beg the Lord for mercy, as you are an accomplice to the bloodshed of these children of Christ. Shame on you and your descendants.
Repent and accept Jesus Christ as your God and savior.
Raven - You're a schismatic. Schismatics don't like Latin. Therefore, you cannot use Latin to bolster your argument. You defeat yourself the moment your synapses fire sufficiently to make finger stroke key.
To Mike:
Fetus is a scientific term. It is the correct term.
I am not a satanist. I am not a handmaid of the devil.
You will NOT tell me what to do. I have noting to repent for -- at least not anything that is any of your business.
You are frightening. If I lived near you, there would be a restraining order out on you.
To Honorious IV:
I am not a schismatic. I do like Latin -- though not at Mass. I am actually reasonably good at Latin. It is my 3rd Language. Latin is the language of science. I am a scientist and thus I use it daily. As a scientist, I can use the etymology of words any time I wish.
