I still have to look up that speech thing.

I was reading a bit from a TIME Magazine special on her & it mentioned that she brought up abortion in her acceptance speech. Here are some excerpts:<br /><br />"“He being God became man in all things like us except sin, and he proclaimed very clearly that he had come to give the good news. The news was peace to all of good will and this is something that we all want – the peace of heart – and God loved the world so much that he gave his son – it was a giving – it is as much as if to say it hurt God to give, because he loved the world so much that he gave his son, and he gave him to Virgin Mary, and what did she do with him? As soon as he came in her life – immediately she went in haste to give that good news, and as she came into the house of her cousin, the child – the unborn child – the child in the womb of Elizabeth, leapt with joy. He was that little unborn child, was the first messenger of peace. He recognised the Prince of Peace, he recognised that Christ has come to bring the good news for you and for me…<br /><br />We are talking of peace. These are things that break peace, but I feel the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a direct war, a direct killing – direct murder by the mother herself. And we read in the Scripture, for God says very clearly: Even if a mother could forget her child – I will not forget you – I have carved you in the palm of my hand. We are carved in the palm of His hand, so close to Him that unborn child has been carved in the hand of God. And that is what strikes me most, the beginning of that sentence, that even if a mother could forget something impossible – but even if she could forget – I will not forget you. And today the greatest means – the greatest destroyer of peace is abortion.”<br /><br />& near the end: "That from here the joy of life of the unborn child comes out."<br /><br />I still don't know for sure if she would have gone, but I am sure that if she had her speech would have been very similar to what it was back then, only with even more emphasis on abortion.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07721319432213055605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4191489412373415438.post-84136982921031963462010-08-21T01:20:38.677-04:002010-08-21T01:20:38.677-04:00P.S.

I have often wondered if she was still alive what she would have said about the fact that the Nobel Prize was given to Obama. I know by now all the money would have been spent on helping the poor so obviously she couldn't have returned the money. The medal itself is another matter, given how little I am sure that meant to her, she just might have.<br /><br />On the other hand, had she won it after Obama i suspect she would have accepted it simply to have another chance to speak up & defend the unborn like she did to Clinton @ the 1994 Prayer Breakfast. "But I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child, murder by the mother herself." & that was just 1 line she used.<br /><br />& if she had rejected it she would have been very vocal about why. Leaving a lot of people very uncomfortable in her wake.<br /><br />I cannot see Sr. R taking this approach of using it to speak out like Mother Teresa would have. (BTW, are the recipients allowed to give speeches? Or are they just given the award & someone else gives a speech? Or what?) It is clear from the CR article & other things you have said she hasn't exactly had the courage to speak up about Morgentaler or abortion. So the other possible approach by Mother Teresa is clearly just as much a no go for her. I stand by my comparison of her with Sister Carol Keehan I made in my comment for your previous post on this.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07721319432213055605noreply@blogger.com
