Continue to make voices heard for unborn babies
To the editor:
Thanks to the Catholic Herald team for your outstanding coverage of the annual pro-life marches in Madison, Chicago, and Washington, D.C. Our family was pleased to join hundreds of others from the diocese in participating in these important events, providing a countercultural voice on behalf of the most defenseless in our society. Special thanks to Diocese of Madison for their leadership in making our local march a success!
Thank God for crying babies!
Babies crying in church can irritate me, but as I’ve thought about them, I agree with a sign I saw that said, “Thank God for crying babies!”
Why do I think that? Don’t crying babies distract their parents and the entire congregation from prayerfully participating in the Mass?
Yes, they do. But babies should also be loved by their families and welcomed into the entire parish community.

Supporting the rights of the unborn
When I taught religion at Beloit Catholic High, I invited pro-life speakers to give talks. I especially remember a pro-life doctor who described the tragedy of aborted babies. During his talk, he wept. Each tear convinced us that he truly believed that unborn babies were persons. Aborting them was destroying human lives.
Tears flowed from the eyes and hearts of committed pro-lifers when on January 22, 1973 in the Roe v. Wade decision the Supreme Court legalized abortion. Their ruling made it legal for mothers to abort their unborn baby.
The Church position on life
In no. 2270 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church it says, “From the first moment of existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person . . . among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life.” The Church’s position, which recognizes the individual as human from conception until death, is supported by natural law.
Scripture inspires us to save unborn babies
To the editor:
“Thou shalt not kill.”
“What you have done to the least of my brothers you have done unto me.”
“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.”
“Let the children come to me and do not stop them, because the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.”
So ask not what we can do just to save animals, but what can we do to save our own offspring, babies.
