Oh, Jesus

ECHIDNE OF THE SNAKES reports that a Catholic archbishop in Brazil announced that everyone will be excommunicated who helped a nine-year old survivor of incestuous rape get an abortion. Not only was the pregnancy the result of rape, but it also endangered the life of the girl, who weighs only 80 pounds.

The Catholic Church is apparently unable to tell the difference between being "pro life" and being pro-patriarchy.

Heaven help us all.
