moonwiseHospital nun rebuked for allowing abortion
First: Sister Margaret was immensely brave to buck the Church and agree that a living mother and a terminated pregnancy is better than a dead mother and a dead baby.
Second: Fuck the Church for not really honoring the whole "sanctity of life" concept.
A nun and administrator at a Catholic hospital in Phoenix has been reassigned and rebuked by the local bishop for agreeing that a severely ill woman needed an abortion to survive.
Sister Margaret McBride was on an ethics committee that included doctors that consulted with a young woman who was 11 weeks pregnant late last year, The Arizona Republic newspaper reported on its website Saturday. The woman was suffering from a life-threatening condition that likely would have caused her death if she hadn't had the abortion at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center.
