A nun who saved a woman's life was excommunicated by the church

    A nun at a Catholic hospital in Phoenix recently had to choose between religion and humanity, and ended up choosing ethics over faith.

    In defiance of the dictates of her faith, thus, she ordered the abortion of a 11-week-old foetus. This led to her being excommunicated from the faith she had chosen to serve, a faith that unconditionally treats abortion as sin.

    then saving life is also considered as crime in this PEACEFUL religion? ;)

    I love the silly tone of the article "McBride is paying the ultimate sacrifice for her decision to help another life; she is no longer allowed to receive the sacraments. "

    No, the ultimate sacrifice is what happens to many people who choose to leave the Muslim religion.

    There's a big difference between being excommunicated and being violently murdered.

    I love how you capitalized "Peaceful" in an irony full of shame.
    So..in your opinion she saved the life of a pregnant woman by killing the unborn child? Would you do the same thing?
    I'm not on her side. Both the mother and the fetus were living organisms but if it was the MOTHER'S decision to follow the abortion, then that's the patient choice.
    Abortion is a sin of course.

    Its a good thing that Islam is pragmatic on this issue of abortion and does not forbid it if it is for health reasons which can save the mother's life.

    By Killing the fetus who is destined to be born healthy and still considered a living organism. The mother had the disease... so why kill the fetus ? I'm not implying anything but no one should have the decision to end someone's life...

    Just wondering, are you a Doctor? I guess Doctors know better than general people.

    I am pro-abortion. There are more than six billion humans infesting this planet, it' not as if we have a shortage and we need to conserve them.

    If you want to perform abortions, you should leave the Catholic church. The Catholic church is anti-abortion. Their choice to excommunicate her should never have happened, because she should have quit first.

    Heck, everyone should leave the Catholic church right now. But, it's still moronically silly to treat excommunication from the Catholic church with the same seriousness as you would treat apostasy from Islam.

    He claims to be an atheist but he is propagating a fanatical Christian missionary website...perhaps he is a Crosstian in disguise!

    Couple of 'claimed' atheists are here on this forum, they try to prove they are atheists but their work is against Islam by post misleading info. I surprise they can't see any good things in Islam in their eyes don't even post a site link which is reliable source of Islam. something fishy :D

    Actually they follow some religion and hate Islam.

    Yeah, because the "religion of peace" doesn't murder children - right? Or if they did I'm sure it would only be to save the mother.

    That said, I'm appalled that the nun was excommunicated - religion, not just islam, is retarded.

    You're the detective investigating wrongful termination of the nun. Are you asking the defense to do the work for you?

    Man... you are so retarded that you have to beg for a URL on a web site that has already been posted?

    Here, let me Google that for you.

    http://www.answering-islam.org/donate.html

    Now, was that so hard?

    Where in the Qua'ran does it tell you to be lazy? I can't seem to find that verse.

    Thank for your hard work. I never ever find it so difficult to find out address.

    Then next time if I don't see any address I have to first pickup any address and search by google, if the site indexed by google then ok :D

    still if it does not work then, I have to check whether any donate page is there. lol

    if someone visit the site then from contact us link we can see http://www.answering-islam.org/dialog.html

    even the donate page link is not available on site. why they intentionally hide the address so that a new person who are not muslim and want to know Islam, will visit and since will not find any address (user may consider run by Islamic source) so think information provided is right. may be after looking at address s.he may close the site. idea is good!

    Where in the Qua'ran does it tell you to be lazy? I can't seem to find that verse.
    Thanks, you have not found that verse! :D
