No argument, but the sister was pointing out that being pro-birth and objecting to helping the poor (the lovely 'work or starve' argument) are inconsistent. If the State is going to insist that all conceptions lead to viable births, then the State should have an obligation to care for those people born as a result. As should individuals.

Oh i agree. I wasn't arguing that. I just don't think it's fair to say the church is hypocritical when it comes to serving people in need. That's what my comment was directed towards.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
