To the editor:
I just read the article on efforts to provide constitutional protections for pre-born children in Wisconsin.
Catholics who argue that a Wisconsin Personhood Amendment is “wrong for Wisconsin” might look to the Catechism for guidance. Taken from an excerpt of Donum Vitae (authored by Cardinal Ratzinger before he became Pope Benedict XVI), Catechism 2270 states, “From the first moment of his 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.”
