POPE FRANCIS CALLS FOR ABOLITION OF DEATH PENALTY; ALLEGED NEWS

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFWqO1FkaMw

POPE FRANCIS CALLS FOR ABOLITION OF DEATH PENALTY, ALLEGED NEWS.

Pope Francis' speech to US Congress included the following words, Alleged News. [1]

"The yardstick we use for others will be the yardstick which time will use for us. The Golden Rule also reminds us of our responsibility to protect and defend human life at every stage of its development.

This conviction has led me, from the beginning of my ministry, to advocate at different levels for the global abolition of the death penalty. I am convinced that this way is the best, since every life is sacred, every human person is endowed with an inalienable dignity, and society can only benefit from the rehabilitation of those convicted of crimes. Recently my brother bishops here in the United States renewed their call for the abolition of the death penalty. Not only do I support them, but I also offer encouragement to all those who are convinced that a just and necessary punishment must never exclude the dimension of hope and the goal of rehabilitation." [1]

ARKANSAS IS PREPARING TO EXECUTE SEVEN DEATH ROW INMATES THIS MONTH BEFORE DRUGS EXPIRE; ALLEGED NEWS

ARKANSAS IS PREPARING TO EXECUTE SEVEN DEATH ROW INMATES IN 11 DAYS THIS MONTH BEFORE THE STATE'S DRUGS EXPIRE, A REPORTEDLY UNPRECEDENTED NUMBER OF LETHAL INJECTIONS IN SUCH A NARROW WINDOW; ALLEGED NEWS. [1]

The scheduled executions have prompted unease from the State's Governor, lawsuits from the condemned inmates, concerns about the schedule and criticism from former corrections officials nationwide; Alleged News. [1]

Drug shortage
Arkansas officials reportedly relate the April execution schedule on the drug shortage, which has states seeking replacement chemicals and, in some cases, caused them to contemplate other execution methods; Alleged News. [1]

Governor Asa Hutchinson
Governor Asa Hutchinson, who set the dates, reportedly admitted to feeling uneasy about being caught between needing to schedule the lethal injections and the looming expiration of the state's stock of midazolam, a sedative that will be one of three drugs used in the lethal injections; Alleged News. [1]
  "It's not my choice", Hutchinson said at a news conference, "I would love to have those extended over a period of multiple months and years, but that's not the circumstances that I find myself in," Alleged News. [1]

Expiry end of April 2017
The state's midazolam supply is set to expire at the end of April, according to officials; Alleged News. [1]
  There is no clear answer about whether the state will be able to obtain a new set of drugs, Alleged News. [1]

Bungled execution
Arkansas acquired its midazolam in 2015, according to documents provided by the state, Alleged News. [1]
  The drug caused controvery after it was used in a bungled execution in Oklahoma, Alleged News. [1]
  After the failure of a 20-minute attempt to execute him, Clayton Lockett was left to die of a heart attack in the execution chamber at the Oklahoma state penitentiary in McAlester; Alleged News. [2]
  For three minutes after the first drugs were delivered, Lockett struggled violently, groaned and writhed, lifting his shoulders and head from the gurney; Alleged News. [2]

Some 16 minutes after the execution began, and without Lockett being declared dead, the blinds separating the chamber from the viewing room were closed; Alleged News. [2]
  The process was called off shortly afterwards, Alleged News. [2]
  Locket died 43 minutes after the first executions drugs were administered; Alleged News. [2]

Psychological impact on execution teams
It has been more than twenty years since Dr Allen Ault stood in a chamber and gave the order for an execution to go ahead; Alleged News. [3]
  Despite the passage of so many years, he feels troubled to this day by what he did; Alleged News. [3]
  "I had a lot of guilt, my conscience totally bothered me," he said, "When the switch was thrown that first time, and I realized I had just killed a man, that was pretty traumatic. Then to have to do it again and again and again, it got so that I absolutely could not go through with it," Alleged News. [3]

As commissioner of the department of corrections in Georgia, Ault gave the order for five executions by electric chair in 1994 and 1995; Alleged News. [3]
  After the fifth life was taken, the cumulative distress reached breaking point, and he resigned from the post and moved to a job in the US justice department that had nothing to do with the death penalty; Alleged News. [3]
  Since then, he has found himself haunted by the memory of the five men whose lives he ended, Alleged News. [3]
  "I don't remember their names, but I still see them in my nightmares," he reportedly said, Alleged News. [3]

Letter to Governor Hutchinson
In March 2017, 23 former correction officials from 16 different states, sent a joint letter to Gov Hutchinson urging him to reconsider; Alleged News. [3]
  They warned, several on the basis of personal experience, that participating in executions can exact a 'severe toll on corrections officers' wellbeing' and that by carrying out so many so quickly Arkansas was 'needlessly exacerbating the strain and stress placed on these officers', Alleged News. [3]

One of Ault's prime concerns relates not to the prisoners awaiting execution, but to the men and women of the execution team who are being asked - as he was - to kill in the name of justice; Alleged News. [3]

"To ask corrections officials in Arkansas to kill eight people, two a day - as someone who went through this, I can't tell you how deeply concerned I am for their mental health," he reportedly said; Alleged News. [3]

Capital Punishment
Maximum security prisons are readily available fo detaining criminals; Alleged News. [4]
  In recent decades the global trend has been to abolish the death penalty; Alleged News. [4]
  A basic definition of punishment is that it involves the deliberate infliction of suffering on a supposed or actual offender for an offense such as a moral or legal transgression; Alleged News. [4]

Italian political philosopher Cesare Beccaria [1738-1794] wrote, "The intent of punishments is not to torment a sentient being, nor to undo a crime already committed . . . Instead of being influenced by passion, such institutions should be the cool moderator of the passions of individuals. Can the groans of a tortured wretch bring back the time past, or reverse the crime he has committed? The end of punishment, therefore, is no other than to prevent the criminal from doing further injury to society, and to prevent others from committing the same offense. Such punishments, therefore, and such a manner of inflicting them ought to be chosen in a way that will make the strongest and most lasting impressions on the minds of others, with the least torment to the body of the criminal." [On Crimes and Punishments, 12]. [4]

Aims of Punishment
All punishment has some aim which serves to justify the suffering that is inflicted on the offender. The main aims are retribution, incapacitation, rehabilitation, and deterrence.
  With retribution, punishment is a matter of what is deserved in return for a wrongful act. The punishment is proportionate punishment to the crime, and imposed on the offender for its own sake rather than to bring about a larger social benefit.
  With incapacitation, punishment keeps offenders from repeating similar crimes, typically by physically restraining them.
  With rehabilitiation, punishment aims to change the offender's predisposition towards criminal behavior, and thus keeps the offender from becoming a threat to others when released into the community.
  With deterrence, punishment is a means of discouraging others from committing similar offences. [4]

Innocence executed
Documented evidence exists that some who have undergone execution were, in fact, innocent; Alleged News. [5]
  Death Penalty Information Center gives details on Executed but possibly Innocent, Alleged News. [5]

Posthumous Pardons
Posthumous Pardons of Executed prisoners who were, in fact innocent, exist; Alleged News. [5]
  One tragic case was that of a 23 year old with an IQ of 46 - thus, with intellectual disability; Alleged News. [6] 
  On January 7 2011, Colorado Governor Bill Ritter granted a full and unconditional posthumous pardon to Joe Arridy, who had been convicted and executed as an accomplice to a murder that occurred in 1936; Alleged News. [6]
  The governor said, 'Granting a posthumous pardon is an extraordinary remedy. But the tragic conviction of Mr Arridy and his subsequent execution on Jan 6, 1939, merit such relief based on the great likelihood that Mr Arridy was, in fact, innocent of the crime for which he was executed, and his severe mental disability at the time of his trial and execution. Pardoning Mr Arridy cannot undo this tragic event in Colorado history. It is in the interests of justice and simple decency, however, to restore his good name," Alleged News. [6] and [7]

In the final analysis
Many years ago my dad used to discuss philosophy with me. Every night he would sit and we'd discuss weighty world issues.
  I was eleven years of age when the issue of the death penalty came up.
  The whole concept was somewhat outside my grasp, and I questioned him about it.

  He looked quietly at me from under his bushy eyebrows, and said very seriously,
  'With the death penalty, there is always the possibility that you become the very thing you are trying to destroy.'

  Taking another's life because they took another's life can put the taker on par with the taken.

CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF LOUVAIN SUPPORTS ABORTION, REPORTEDLY SUSPENDS PROLIFE PROFESSOR; ALLEGED NEWS

Jesus Wept

PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION; 

WARNING; NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUr0jCbcPNc

THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF LOUVAIN [UCL] BELGIUM HAS SUSPENDED A PROFESSOR WITH PROLIFE VIEWS; ALLEGED NEWS. [1]

Stephane Mercier, a lecturer in philosophy at the Catholic University of Louvain, distributed a paper to his students during a recent lecture; Alleged News. [1]
Professor Mercier challenged the concept of 'a right to choose' and referenced abortion as murder in the paper; Alleged News. [1]

"The murder of an innocent person capable of defending himself is revolting," Mercier wrote in the paper, "but to attack someone who does not have the strength or resources to defend himself is even more dreadful," Alleged News. [1] 

Catholic Herald
Mercier reportedly told the Catholic Herald that he asked students to 'reflect on the arguments by themselves. I said repeatedly that no one should feel forced to agree with me,' Alleged News. [1]

He said he was only encouraging the students to consider the issues, Alleged News. [1]
'I did my job', Mercier said, 'and I'm now under a disciplinary procedure which really doesn't make any sense to me,' Alleged News. [1]
Professor Mercier is suspended from UCL until further notice while the university investigates; Alleged News. [1]

According to the university website, 'UCL authorities decided to initiate disciplinary proceedings against him,' Alleged News. [1]

Suspension statement
UCL leadership reportedly supported a woman's 'right to choose' in its statement about the suspension; Alleged News. [1]
Abortion is legal in Belgium, Alleged News. [1]
  'The UCL recalls that, in the spirit of the Act decriminalizing abortion voted in 1990, it respects the autonomy of women to make this choice, in the circumstances specified by the legislator,' Alleged News. [1]

Synergie Wallonie
A group, Synergie Wallonie, had reportedly complained to university officials about Mercier's material; Alleged News. [1]

Earlier statement
An earlier statement from the Catholic institution said, "Whatever the outcome of the inquiry, the right to abortion is enshrined in Belgian law and the note that was brought to the attention of UCL is at odds with the values upheld by the university. Conveying standpoints that contradict these values in the framework of a teaching course is unacceptable," Alleged News. [1]

Professor Mercier noted that Catholic bishops serve on the board of the University, Alleged News. [1]

Teaching of the Catholic Church
The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, within the document 'Clarification on procured abortion', reportedly states;
"Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person - among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life." [2]

" 'Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion - that is, to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is gravely contrary to to the moral law: 'You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish.' (Didache 2:2)"  [2]

' "Life must be protected with the utmost care from the moment of conception:abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes", (Vatican Council II, Gaudium et Spes, 51)' [2] and [3]

"Formal cooperation in an abortion constitutes a grave offence." [2]

Code of Canon Law
The Code of Canon Law in the Catholic Church is the systems of laws and legal principles made and enforced by the Church's hierarchical authorities to regulate its external organization and government and to order and direct the activities of Catholics toward the mission of the Church.
 The document 'Clarification on procured abortion' makes reference to Canon Law in the following statement;  'A person who procures a completed abortion incurs excommunication latae sententiae,' (Code of Canon Law, Canon 1398), 'by the very commission of the offense', (Code of Canon Law, Canon 1314,), and subject to the conditions provided by Canon Law (cf. Code of Canon Law, Canon 1323-1324). The Church does not thereby intent to restrict the scope of mercy. Rather, she makes clear the gravity of the crime committed, the irreparable harm done to the innocent who is put to death, as well as to the parents and the whole of society.' [2]

Philosophy
Philosophy is the academic discipline concerned with making explicit the nature and significance of ordinary and scientific beliefs and investigating the intelligibility of concepts by means of rational argument concerning their presuppositions, implications, and interrelationships; in particular, the rational investigation of the nature and structure of reality [metaphysics], the resources and limits of knowledge [epistemology], the principles and import of moral judgement [ethics]
 and the relationship between language and reality [semantics].

Philosophical debate on abortion
Rational arguments both for, and against abortion, are nothing new. Philosophical debate on the topic of the right of a member of humanity to terminate the life of another human being has been ongoing for centuries.
  Philosophical arguments about abortion spring forth from logic and rational argument.

TIGERS BOILED UP TO MAKE WINE; ALLEGED NEWS. WHY NOT SIGN THE PETITION?

A MAILONLINE INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THOUSANDS OF TIGERS DIED IN WRETCHED CONDITIONS  IN CHINA FOR WINE MADE WITH THEIR BONES; ALLEGED NEWS. [1]

Customers clinging to traditional belief that tiger bone wine strengthens, and has aphrodisiac qualities, paid up to £400 a bottle; Alleged News. [1]
Tiger bones are steeped in rice wine for up to eight years, and then bottled with a mixture of Chinese herbs and snake extract; Alleged News. [1]

Xiongsen Bear & Tiger Mountain Village
The large tiger farm in China, Xiongsen Bear & Tiger Mountain Village in China, has reportedly come under the spotlight for the practices and conditions there; Alleged News. [2]
  Xiongsen Bear & Tiger Mountain Village remains a popular tourist destination; Alleged News. [2]

  Change.org described the location as 'hell on Earth for over 1800 abused and emaciated tigers who are kept in deplorable conditions in small steel filth covered cages, with often no water or food, covered in feces,' Alleged News. [2]

  While the U.N. Convention On International Trade in Endangered Species required China to put a ban on tiger bone products in 1993, acts such as drugging and punching tigers for fun continue, Alleged News. [2]

Speed bred
According to a 2016 post, 'Not only are tigers hit for entertainment at tiger farms, they're often 'speed bred': tiger babies are taken away from mothers instantly after birth, and the mothers are forced to breed again swiftly,' Alleged News. [2]

Tail chewed through
A journalist on site reported that 'there was a tiger whose tail was chewed through with the dead part left to hang, tourists throwing live animals like chickens to tigers to witness the bloodshed, tourists beating and mistreating them for a crowd enjoying the show, and seeing bone wine and other tiger products like pelts, being openly sold,' Alleged News. [2]

Approximately 200 tiger farms
The Environmental Investigation Agency [EIA] estimates there are approximately 200 of these tiger farms in China, Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos; Alleged News. [2]

Perhaps Divine Providence has led you to read these words.

 The true nobility of the human soul is shown in the tenderness, mercy and compassion to those weaker and vulnerable in society. Tiny babies torn from their mothers, animals hurt, in pain, and trafficked for their body parts, call out for our  compassion and efforts to ensure freedom from suffering.

"SHE DECIDES" CONFERENCE DOES NOT ALLOW AFRICAN WOMEN TO DECIDE ON ABORTION: ALLEGED NEWS

Africa's wealth - her children

THE SOCIETY FOR THE PROTECTION OF UNBORN CHILDREN [SPUC] SPOKE OUT ABOUT THE "SHE DECIDES" CONFERENCE" WHICH TOOK PLACE IN BRUSSELS ON 2nd MARCH 2017, FOR DENYING REAL CHOICE TO AFRICAN WOMEN; ALLEGED NEWS. [1]
 Governments including Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark and Sweden reportedly met in Brussels to discuss funding abortion in developing countries; Alleged News. [1]

She Decides
She Decides is a global initiative set up in response to the US Government's reinstatement of the Mexico City Policy, which prohibits US funding from being used by organizations which promote abortion; Alleged News. [1]
  She Decides supports women's rights, in particular their sexual and reproductive health and rights, 'focusing on how to enable every woman to decide for herself, freely, whether, when and how many children she wants to have," Alleged News. [2] 

Premise rejected
Antonia Tully of SPUC Pro-Life said SPUC rejected the premise of the She Decides' organization and said,
"Abortion is never safe for the baby. Moreover, it is very often not safe for the woman," Alleged News.
"Money being spent on promoting abortion is money not being spent on proper maternal care, or real healthcare," Alleged News. [1]

Culture of Life Africa
Obianuju Ekeocha, President of Culture of Life Africa, in video message [*] asked the European delegates to the She Decides Conference whether anyone asked the Africans for their opinion about funding abortion in their countries; Alleged News. [1]

  "Many countries in the West, including Canada and the Netherlands have decided to come together to raise funds. Not funds for food in Africa. Not funds for water in Africa. Not funds that the Africans can  use as they want. Instead, they are gathering together to raise millions of dollars that they are dedicating to the so called safe abortion. What is actually most disheartening is that these western countries have not even thought of asking the Africans what they want!" Alleged News. [1]

€81 million raised
She decides conference raised further €81 million for family planning, Alleged News. [3]
  More than 40 countries took part in the She Decides conference in Brussels; Alleged News. [3]
