Pro-life Quotes From Fr. John Corapi
I have seen Fr. John Corapi in person on two separate occasions and have watched him on EWTN and really admire him for boldly speaking the truth. He is a holy priest who pulls no punches. Here are some of my favorite pro-life quotes from Fr. Corapi.
"If you do not live and vote a Catholic conscience, then don't complain that you live in a pagan nation."
"It is not morally possible for any Catholic to support abortion, euthanasia, fetal stem cell research, human cloning, or same-sex marriage. There are no ways around this, no justifications whatever. Why? For the simple reason that the Church holds these things to be intrinsically evil. They are evil in themselves, and no circumstances or subjective conditions can ever change that."
"Catholic office holders, whether presidents, senators, congress men or women, or judges at any level must adhere to Catholic teaching or run the risk of separating themselves from the Body of Christ. In such egregious and chronic cases of gross moral evil such as instituting and perpetuating abortion and the structures of sin that surround it, it is quite probable that such Catholic officials are excommunicated in virtue of the acts themselves. A latae sententiae (automatic) excommunication is likely triggered when they vote for laws, funding, and structures that enable and perpetuate such obvious and egregious evil (Cf. Code of Canon Law, Canons 1364,1398; Canon 1329, par. #2). They are in turn forbidden from approaching the sacraments as the result (Cf. Catechism of Catholic Church #1463)."
"The lame argument that they (politicians) personally oppose such things as abortion, yet vote for them repeatedly, demonstrates the most virulent form of moral and political schizophrenia yet to afflict mankind. That they succeed in duping millions of otherwise intelligent people with this absurd and twisted logic does not bode well for the future of the nation that votes for them."
"The devil donned a judicial robe." (In relation to the US Supreme Court decision in Roe v Wade which legalised abortion)
"The total self-giving necessity in marriage must be mutual obviously, or it doesn't work. It must be constant and faithful, and it is fruitful. Love is fruitful. Only in heaven will we know how magnificent, how holy, how beautiful is the reality of being a mother and father. Children are a gift. "By its very nature the institution of marriage and married love is ordered to the procreation and education of the offspring and it is in them that it finds its crowning glory" (#1652). "

The other day he said this. I believe he said that he first said it after 9/11.

I love it! That sounds like something I would expect him to say - He's never afraid to speak the truth.
