Catholics for Choice

[ivanbalt]

It sounds like "Catholics Who Don't Want to be Catholics" would be a better name for the group. Why would anyone stay in a religion they disagree with instead of joining one with which they do agree?

I do not agree with the Catholic Church on a lot of issues ~ but does the church not have a right to their own rules and beliefs?

If they are looking for a church whose rules and beliefs are based on popular vote, then they really need to exercise their choice and freedom to look elsewhere.

I disagree with plenty of things the Catholic Church does, but I still consider myself pseudo-Catholic. It's the way I was raised, my family is Catholic and I view church as a local community thing, not some worldwide organization.

If the Catholic Church doesn't like that, they can remove me from Mass when I occasionally go.

In Vitro fertilization procedure deals with assisting potential mothers who may otherwise be unable to support a pregnancy, again, on a completely different level than abortion.

In actuality, it is not entirely different because every fertilized egg is not implanted and some are ultimately destroyed.
