The natural choice is life

Safeguarding the gift of life from conception to the moment of natural death is the subject of Archbishop Murphy’s weekly Catholic Northwest Progress “In Joy and Hope” column. He asserts the natural choice for all human beings is life. The archbishop defines opposition to abortion as counter-cultural – as is in general being a disciple of Christ. “Our commitment to this choice for life cannot remain a private opinion,” said Archbishop Murphy. “We need to share our convictions with the public and political sector by raising these questions when our society does not value unborn human life.”
