lease support for the U.S. Postal Service’s decision to honor pro-life luminary Mother Teresa with a special postage stamp around Aug. 1— start asking for it now!
In February 1997, in her remarks at the White House Prayer Breakfast with President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Clinton—two unswerving supporters of abortion—Mother Teresa laid out her case clearly.
"America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation."
“What is taking place in America is a war against the child,” she said. “And if we accept that the mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another.” Three years earlier, Mother Teresa was quoted in The Wall Street Journal saying, “America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation.” She added: “The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father’s role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts—a child— as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience. It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters.” And in response to critics who asked who would care for an unwanted child, Mother Teresa said, “Please don't kill the child. I want the child. Please give me the child. I am willing to accept any child who would be aborted, and to give that child to a married couple who will love the child, and be loved by the child. From our children's home in Calcutta alone, we have saved over 3,000 children from abortions. These children have brought such love and joy to their adopting parents, and have grown up so full of love and joy!”
Watch for Day of the Unborn Child, March 25, 2010—please say a special pray with your family that day.
March 31, 2010 will mark the 5th anniversary of the Death of Terri Schiavo—we need to stop the discrimination perpetrated against disable and vulnerable persons.
