A friend of mine wrote this on his Facebook page after the pope's speech to Congress this morning.
"About 145 babies were aborted during this speech to congress. I'm not sure how many criminals were put to death during that time but I'm guessing it was quite a bit fewer. Just saying."It got me thinking. How enlightening would it be to go through the speech with a pen and paper and timer and write down how much time was given to each subject? I only heard one sentence about defending life from beginning to end and very little on the family that couldn't be interpreted as applying to the new definition of family in all its diverse forms. There was a lot more, as my friend points out, on capital punishment and, of course, on social justice whatever you think that means.
