If you are interested in the other side, so far, it looks like there is no interest in that.
Catholic sister told Phoenix bishop abortion was allowed by Church teaching :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)
"A religious sister who was on a Catholic hospital panel that approved a direct abortion has excommunicated herself, the Diocese of Phoenix said on Tuesday"
"In addition, the diocese said that in this situation it was clear that St. Josephs Hospital was not faithful to Catholic moral teaching as outlined in the Ethical and Religious Directives (ERDs). Catholic Healthcare West, the hospital system of which St. Josephs is a part, has not followed the ERDs in at least one of their institutions, Chandler Regional Hospital.
According to the diocese, Bishop of Phoenix Thomas Olmsted is attempting to work with the hospital to help them fulfill requirements of self-identified Catholic institutions."
Imagine, the NYT not presenting the "full picture".
It is one thing to perform an abortion to save the mother. It is another to make a false claim that is clearly against the church's teaching.
The point is, no life-saving operation should be withheld for theological reasons, logical4u.
