"They know not what they are doing"...

The Motley Monk believes the idea of abortion is reprehensible, with the idea of a late-term abortion pushing the limits of credulity.

As bad as all of that is
--and it is very bad--Breitbart reports of an interview published at The Hairpin that stretches beyond the limits of credulity.

In that interview, a late-term abortionist and an interviewer discuss a scene in the new pro-abortion documentary After Tiller in which the abortionist encourages the mother to “hold” her aborted baby. As unbelievable as that is, the abortionist also tells the mother to take home a copy of her dead infant's footprints and a “memory box,” as if the baby died from some fetal anomaly.

In that interview, the abortionist describes how this comes about:
With a fetal indications patient—if [the mother] refers to it as her baby, I'll refer to it as her baby. If she’s named the baby, I’ll use the baby’s name too. I would say that most of these patients do decide to see and hold their baby, although many of them have a hard time dealing with the idea at first. We’ll take remembrance photographs, we’ll give them a teddy bear, the footprints. I mean, imagine being six months pregnant and finding out your baby’s missing half its brain, and you’ve got this nursery you’ve painted at home, you’re so ready—I don’t want them to go home from the procedure with absolutely nothing to remember and honor the baby, and its birth.
The interviewer is incredulous that the abortionist would used the word "birth." The abortionist responds that she does so to mirror the patient's language and provide the most consolation. She'll even offer non-denominational prayers with the mother and family, to which the interviewer wonders whether or not this is "macabre" in light of the fact the mother holding the baby in her arms had just committed herself to ending its life.

The abortionist responded:

That's not macabre! Yes, that's the first part of the procedure. We sedate the patient and euthanize their fetus, their baby, with an injection. The fetus passes away, doesn't feel anything.
In a world where a newborn Mom's "Hello" means "Goodbye," all The Motley Monk can think of is what Jesus said from the Cross: "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing."

    ​The Motley Monk's Omnibus...
    Error, indeed is never set forth in its naked deformity, lest, being thus exposed, it should at once be detected. But it is craftily decked out in an attractive dress, so as, by its outward form, to make it appear to the inexperienced more true than truth itself.
    -St. Irenaeus of Lyons

    A discussion of social, political, religious, and theological matters from a Roman Catholic perspective, dedicated to the memory of Rev. L. Dudley Day, O.S.A., who never cowered when it came to defending the Church's authentic teaching.
