The following is the first excerpt from the most comprehensive, informative and powerful one hour talk I have ever heard. I transcribed it from a tape by Father Greg Staab, O.M.V. What Happened at Fatima? (10-12-02). This is # 1 of 12 excerpts.
“Mother Teresa of Calcutta was offered the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979. And when
she went up to accept it, she said, ‘I am grateful to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in the name of the hungry, of the naked, of the homeless, of the crippled, of the blind, of the lepers, in the name of all those people who feel unwanted, unloved, uncared for throughout society, of a people that have become a burden to society and are shunned by everyone.’ In other words she received the Nobel Prize in the name of Jesus, Himself.
And during that famous talk in 1979, she spoke about the reality of peace and she said the greatest destroyer of peace in the world is not war. ‘The greatest destroyer of peace in the world is abortion.’
“Another occasion in 1997, it was at a National Prayer Breakfast in Washington which was attended by the President and the First Lady. She said that what is taking place in America is a war against the child. And if we accept that the mother can kill her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another.
“Abortion is the greatest evil that has ever existed in the history of our country. And I like to expound upon that a little bit, to make it more explicit and to make it clearer, to show how true that really is, and to begin my talk this morning.
“First of all, it is the greatest evil because it is the murder of innocent and defenseless human persons. We will never find victims of injustice who are as innocent and incapable of defending themselves as they are. Nor will we find an injustice that is greater than any other tragedy in our history. It is something that we really can’t comprehend, how horrible abortion is, greater than any other tragedy in our history. How great the evil is that is taking place in our country and that we really are not aware of it, conscious of it and reflect on it very much.
“Just to give you a few statistics! Since Jan. 22, 1973, the Supreme Court decision of Roe vs. Wade over 30 million unborn children have died through surgical abortion, over 40 million. That is on the average of l.3 million every year. About 4,000 every day, and about 1 every 20 seconds who are killed on the average. We would add to surgical abortions the reality of chemicals abortions…. We would have another 14 million abortions…This is a number we can’t even begin to fathom.
“The total number of Americans who have died in war from 1776 to 1996 is a little less than 1.1 million. It is a lot of human beings who have died in the wars in the whole history of the United States of America. Yet more Americans are killed in surgical abortions in just one year. (about 1.3 million) …”
