Excerpts from Supreme Knight Carl Anderson’s recent remarks at the Knights of Columbus convention in Toronto:
“Pope Francis has emphasized how important it is for Catholics to be engaged in the political process. His words regarding the importance of Catholics being faithful citizens are especially important for us.”
“We need to end the political manipulation of Catholic voters by abortion advocates. It is time to end the entanglement of Catholic people with abortion killing. It is time to stop creating excuses for voting for pro-abortion politicians.” “But the right to abortion is not just another political issue,” Anderson said. “It is in reality a legal regime that has resulted in more than 40 million deaths.” Read more at:
