“Why
Catholic?”… The next session of “Why Catholic?”

Choose Life… “Since the right to
health care is based on the right to live, it is also clear that what attacks life is not
health care at all, and not a legitimate goal of health care reform. (Richard Doerflinger,
associate director of USCCB’s Pro-Life Directorate)
