Abortion: New York
built 192 days ago
The Catholic Church has consistently taught that abortion -- at any stage of development -- is evil. However, its stance has changed down through the years on whether a given abortion is murder. John Cardinal O'Connor, Archbishop of New York, wrote:
The new question raised here is this: Are the primordial germ cells obtained from abortion victims being used to create human embryos, which are then destroyed or suppressed to provide tissue. Even the NIH Human Embryo Research Panel did not recommend funding such an experiment, and it would clearly be forbidden by the current embryo research ban.

The Catholic News Service reported this week that Argentina is considering a revision of the penal code involving abortion. Under the new code, the section addressing abortion would read, "The woman is not punishable when the abortion is practiced with her consent and within three months of conception, provided circumstance made it excusable."
