Catholic Nurse Forced to Participate in Abortion

This is a horrible, terrible, story. I fear cases such as this will only increase as the Obama administration becomes more bold as the days go by with out any real challenges from the legal system. I struggle not to judge this nurse for not walking out--I know what I think I would do in this situation, but none of us really can know until we are faced with the decision.

It is my guess however, if this nurse did walk out and the director did follow through with her threats to charge her with patient abandonment I feel certain the pro-life groups around the nation would rally to her side and provide her with legal assistance.

Two nauseating points: While any abortion is horrible, it is particularly gruesome that this was an abortion done on a 22 weeks old baby. 22 weeks. This is what a 22weeks old baby looks like

The second is this: this hospital knew of the nurses pro-life position when they hired her in 2004 and her position was respected until now--which leads me to my usual worst case scenario---was this another test run to see what the reaction would be in the pro-life community if this nurse was forced to particpate? Given the current political climate against Christians and pro-lifers, I would not be at all surprised.

I will try to post updates when possible. Stay tuned for this one. Read more at HotAir
