It is good to hear that the Catholic Church and pro-life groups are to receive substantial financial aid from the Federal Government to help pregnant mothers in distress.

Also it needs to be pointed out that though the immoral RU486 abortion pill had the votes in the Federal Parliament, it is not the disaster it appeared to be. For instance, no matter how many people vote that murder is alright it remains immoral. True morals do not depend on votes or opinion polls.

We Catholics are fortunate that Christ said he would protect his Church in its teachings to the end of time through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
