Respect life! Challenge the culture of death!
In the October 4, 2019 edition of The Southern Cross, Tony Magliano wrote, "St Pope John Paul II, in his powerful encyclical "Evangelium Vitae" ("The Gospel of Life"), [37b] challengingly said, "How can we fail to consider the violence against life done to millions of human beings, especially children, who are forced into poverty, malnutrition and hunger because of an unjust distribution of resources between peoples and between social classes?
"And what of violence inherent not only in wars as such, but in the scandalous arms trade, which spawns the many conflicts which stain our world with blood?
"What of the spreading of death caused by reckless tampering with the world's ecological balance?
St John Paul then linked these deadly affronts against life to the lethal attacks upon human beings at life's earliest and final stages - through abortion, infanticide, euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide," Alleged News. [38]
The Southern Cross columns
In its columnist articles and advertising columns, The Southern Cross has carried emphatic pro-life content and advertisements on an ongoing basis.
Pro-life 1970's

"Birthright, the agency that helps pregnant women find alternatives to abortion ..." and concluded with "If you could help get this movement started in your community, why not contact the national director of Birthright ..." [39]
Prolife 2020
The Southern Cross advertises Birthright and continues to do so, with the words, "Pregnant? Need help? We care, BIRTHRIGHT.

Retrenchments
Devoted The Southern Cross readers were dismayed at the news that our beloved family newspaper has ground to a halt during the Covid pandemic, leading to the closure of the newspaper just prior to its hundredth birthday in October.
Holy water was sprinkled on the retrenched staff's brows by Cape Town's Auxiliary Bishop Sylvester David on 29th July 2020, as The Southern Cross readers grieved from Covid-19 isolation. This was part of the farewell blessing for the nine staff who were no longer going to be employees of The Southern Cross, Alleged News. [43]

Forty-seven years dedicated service
They included Ms Pamela Davids, the admin manager who served the newspaper for close to 47 of its 100 years; alleged News. [43] But Ms Davids will continue to serve The Southern Cross, alongside Mr Gunther Simmermacher and online editor Ms Claire Allen to bring out the weekly edition digitally until late September, when The Southern Cross will relaunch as a monthly magazine, Alleged News. [43]
Bishop Sylvester David
In his homily, Bishop David said he had grown up reading The Southern Cross; Alleged News.
Bishop David had this to say, "At heart, The Southern Cross is a lighthouse that keeps the Good News alive," Alleged News. [43] "The evangelising disciples and St Paul themselves were journalists who recorded the signs and deeds of their times. Their ministry was an early form of social communications, in writing and speaking, to keep families and communities connected in their Christian faith.
For us, now, keeping The Southern Cross alive in digital and affordable print format would be a valiant mission worth struggling for," Alleged News. [43]
