For Whom The Crosses
*
The Catholic churchyard was
full of white crosses and had
the sign "Pray to end abortions".
Did they mean the aborted lives
of children, adults and animals
killed in war? the prisoners' lives
aborted by state murder (execution)?
the lives of mammals, birds, fishes
etc. aborted in slaughterhouses,
by hunters, fishers?
Does the Creator revere only
the created humans? or all
Creation?

Footnote:
David O'Steen, one time head of National
Right To Life: In order to be consistently
prolife, I became a vegetarian.

Francis Cardinal Spelling was in league
with those who waged war against the Vietnamese. (Ho Chi Minh
had petitioned Woodrow Wilson to help the Vietnamese free
themselves from the heavy French presence). The
tendency of US bishops to be silent
about war was increased. They sold out the people of Iraq,
Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Libya etc bargaining with Bush 1 and
Bush 2 who put 'prolife' war ratifying executioners on the Supreme Court.

When a priest in New Hampshire pray that the sacredness of
all human life be affirmed, an attender in the back pew
stood up and said 'all life, not just human life, is sacred'.
