The Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Santiago, Monsignor Tomás Morel Diplán, said yesterday that the Catholic Church respects the position of President Luis Abinader, in which it supports abortion with its causes, but does not share it, because it is important to preserve the lives of others from conception to death.
Morel Diplán pointed out that the church has long expressed its position on abortion and its causes and that it does not matter if it is rape or other situations, because the lives of human beings must be respected independently. He also explained that you need to train and respect your family.
The right to life
While the Dominican Council of Evangelical Unity (Codue) reminded that the main duty of the state is to ensure the right to life. Codue President Feliciano Lacen said in a statement that in the case of the decriminalization of abortion, the death of a human being was designed to prevail over the mother’s right to reproductive health and self-determination of the mother’s fertility. woman.
Abinader last weekend favored the three causes that would allow the abortion, which opened a great debate about abortion.
