Catholic Church in Colorado declares
neutrality as resolute pro-lifers get ready to face abortion juggernaut
Historic chance to defeat Roe v. Wade on the ballot in Colorado...
"Every man, woman, and child of the age of reason knows right from wrong, for he
has been given an inborn conscience. At the moment of his conception life is
within the womb, and at the moment of conception a life is forming, regardless
of what the agents of hell now pollute the minds of mankind with, creating
murders of the young! I say unto you, life begins at the moment of conception
and all who extinguish this light are murderers, and without repentance shall be
condemned to hell!” - Jesus, June 18, 1977
Colorado citizens will have an historic chance to vote into their
constitution a proposed amendment that would define "person" in law to
include any human being from the moment of fertilization and challenge the
very foundations of the 1973 Roe v. Wade that legalized abortion throughout
the United States.
Colorado Secretary of State Mike Coffman on Thursday approved Amendment 48,
entitled "Definition of a Person," after his office validated 103,377
signatures, far surpassing the 76,047 required for the amendment to appear
on the ballot in November. The petition drive was led by Colorado for Equal
Rights, which collected more than 130,000 signatures with the help of 1300
dedicated pro-life volunteers.
The proposed amendment would add a new section to Article II of the Colorado
state constitution which would read, "the terms 'person' or 'persons' shall
include any human being from the moment of fertilization."

The Colorado personhood amendment is the first of its kind in the nation,
and an especially historic one, since Colorado, the first US state before
Roe v. Wade to legalize abortion, now has a chance to be the first to
establish the personhood of the human being from conception.
"Our strategy is that until you define the unborn child as a person, how can
the laws protect them, when they can't even consider them a person?" Kristi
Burton, 20, a spokeswoman for Colorado for Equal Rights and key leader
behind the ballot initiative, told LifeSiteNews.
"Our goal in this campaign is to have a good positive discussion with the
voters of Colorado about how every life counts, every life is valuable,"
said Burton. "What is the unborn child? Are they people? And if so don't
they deserve the same rights as the rest of us?"
This concept of personhood is absent from US law and was the driving
rationale behind the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion
across the United States. If passed, the Colorado amendment would exploit a
fundamental weakness in Roe that U.S. Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun
admitted to exist when he wrote the decision.
Blackmun then had concluded: "If this suggestion of personhood [for the
unborn] is established, the [abortion rights] case, of course, collapses,
for the fetus' right to life is then guaranteed specifically by the [14th]
Amendment."
"For the first time in 40 years of 'legalized' child killing, pro-lifers
have moved an entire state to consider the God-given right to life of the
unborn," stated Brian Rohrbough, president of American Right to Life.
Although Colorado for Equal Rights has run a very economical campaign so
far, it is looking to muster greatly needed donations as the abortion
industry masses a juggernaut of financial resources to defeat the initiative
in this crucial phase of the campaign.
"The so-called 'Human Life Amendment' is dangerous and deceptive," said
Protect Families, Protect Choice, a pro-abortion front group dedicated to
defeating the measure, in a statement. "This amendment could make abortion
illegal at ALL times, even in the earliest weeks of pregnancy. It could
outlaw abortion even in the cases of rape, incest and when a woman's life is
at risk."
"The amendment is so extreme it could even ban several common forms of birth
control and prohibit in-vitro fertilization and lifesaving stem cell
research."
However, while pro-abortion lobbies, including Planned Parenthood, marshal
massive financial and legal resources from across the United States to
defeat the proposed initiative, the state's largest pro-life organization,
the Catholic Church in Colorado led by Denver Archbishop Charles Chaput, has
opted to remain on the sidelines.
Although many Catholics have signed on the petitions, and over half the
volunteers are Catholic, Chaput and the other two bishops of the Colorado
Catholic Conference, have decided for the time being not to identify the
Church with the proposed personhood amendment, nor devote its enormous
spiritual and financial resources into procuring victory.
"We commend the goal of this effort to end abortion. Individual Catholics
may choose to work for its passage. The bishops' spokeswoman Jennifer Kraska
told the Denver Post in February. "At the same time, we recognize that other
people committed to the sanctity of life have raised serious questions about
this specific amendment's timing and content."
LifeSiteNews requested comment from Kraska, however none was received by
press time on account of the consecration of James D. Conley as the new
auxiliary bishop
Burton, however, told LifeSiteNews that she and many other pro-life
advocates, including the Thomas More Law Center, disagree and believe the
time is ripe for a legal challenge to Roe v. Wade, especially at a point in
history when the next appointment to the Supreme Court may come from a
pro-abortion Democratic president.
"We believe that now is always the right time to do what's right," said
Burton. "Martin Luther King, jr. said that, and he said it of the civil
rights issue of his day, and I believe protecting the unborn child is in a
way the civil rights issue of our day. It's never right to stand back and
say 'well someday we'll get that done.' If it's right let's get it done
now."

"Our hearts are torn because of the wanton murder of the young by evil man.
Abortion, My children, is murder, the most foulest of deeds, that is punishable
by death! And what is worse than death of the soul?
"I say unto you, as your Mother, that any man or woman who performs or
takes part of this abomination of the murder of the unborn shall be given a
heavy penance upon earth, or if this penance is not given upon earth, that
person found guilty in the eyes of his God shall suffer eternal damnation in the
fires of hell." - Our Lady of
the Roses, December 28, 1976
The awesome
Bayside Prophecies...
https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/default.htm These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica
Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995:
SIN OF OMISSION
"The
sin of omission shall condemn many to hell, be they layman or Hierarchy. I
repeat: not the sin of commission, but the sin of omission will commit many to
hell. Among them there will be also mitres." - Our Lady, October
6, 1980
U.S. SHALL BE FIRST STRUCK "One of the
reasons the Eternal Father chose your city and your state for My appearance was
because of abortion, the murder of the holy innocents. Your nation, without
repentance, shall be the first struck." - Our
Lady,
March 15, 1978
THE UNITED STATES SHALL FALL "How can a great country like the United States fall, you say, My child? You
ask Me in your heart. I read your heart. I will tell you why. Because they
have given themselves over to satan. When a country has lost its morality and
seeks the pleasures of the flesh, giving over, themselves over, to all manner of
abominations, like homosexuality, and condoning this up the highest courts of
the land, then that country shall fall." -
Our Lady of the Roses, November 1,
1985
DOCTORS
"Doctors now are profaning their profession, those who have given themselves
over to destroying human life in abortions." -
Jesus,
June 6, 1987
FOULEST OF DEEDS
"Our hearts are torn because of the wanton murder of the young by evil man.
Abortion, My children, is murder, the most foulest of deeds, that is punishable
by death! And what is worse than death of the soul?
"I say unto you, as your Mother, that any man or woman who performs or
takes part of this abomination of the murder of the unborn shall be given a
heavy penance upon earth, or if this penance is not given upon earth, that
person found guilty in the eyes of his God shall suffer eternal damnation in the
fires of hell." - Our Lady, December 28, 1976
DESTROYED
"All who become part of or condone abortion, the murder of the young, shall be
destroyed!" - Jesus, June 2, 1979
HUMAN LIFE IS SACRED
"The Eternal Father command that you stop these murders at once! You will not
destroy the lives of the unborn. Human life is sacred in the eyes of your God.
No man has the right to destroy a life. The Father, He sends this life to you,
and only He will decide when it will return back to the Kingdom.
"Do not, My children, be deceived by the words of the evil ones about you
who cry to you of no space left for man. There is space, for My Father has a
plan for every life He sends." - Our Lady, August 5, 1971
WILL NEVER BE CONDONED
"You will remember, My children and My child, to guard the young. Your clergy
have fallen into darkness. Abortion will never be condoned. But We must have
others who fervently will go forward and bring out to the minds of those who
have actually seduced the country and the children--bring them the knowledge of
Heaven, hell and purgatory. Then they will not have free license to sin."
- Our Lady, May 28, 1983
GOVERNMENT
"For that one reason among many, the United States will suffer unless there is
placed into your government a group that fears the Lord if they cannot love the
Lord. They will fear Him and find measures to stop the slaughter of the unborn."
- Our Lady, April 14, 1984
NUNS
"That is what makes My heart ache, My child. That is one of the reasons Theresa
is crying constantly when she looks into the convents and sees what is going on.
Many now believe in abortion, the murders of the children; and many have
committed this act upon themselves." - Jesus, October 1, 1988
SIXTY
MILLION
"I say this for this reason: the Eternal Father is much disturbed at the numbers
of abortions being committed throughout your country and the world. These
numbers go upwards to fifty to sixty million in one year throughout the world."
- Our Lady, June 18, 1986
TREATED AS GARBAGE
"O My child, My tears fall upon you all when I see all of the innocent little
babies being slaughtered . . . cast into garbage pails like nothing but dirt and
scum. They are living human beings! And all murderers shall get their just
recompense." - Our Lady, March 18, 1983
BOMBS IN THE UNITED STATES "These interlopers upon the serenity of the United States have dark skins....
With their plans there will be bombs placed in strategic places and many shall
die at the hands of these ruffians....
"One big reason for permitting this disaster in New York
would be the abortion mills throughout the city and the country."
- Jesus,
October 1, 1988
HOLY SPIRIT
"At the time of conception, the Holy Spirit makes the child, and the breath of
the Almighty gives it life." - Our Lady,
June 18, 1991
LIMBO
"And what, My children, are We going to do with all the aborted babies? O My
child, I know you feel as I do, for I can see the great distress on your face.
What are We going to do, My child? Do you understand when they come to Us, they
must go to Limbo? They are in Heaven, a happy place, but they cannot see God." -
Our Lady, October 2, 1987
SORROWFULLY
"Sorrowfully, the penance that is to come upon the world for the murders of the
unborn shall be a chastisement far greater in severity than man has ever
witnessed in the past nor ever shall pass through again. Your world is plunging
into a deep chasm of suffering and destruction." -
Our Lady,
May 20, 1978
OATH
"Your once loyal to the oath of a doctor, your once loyal doctors are now
butchers! For money they kill the young!" -
Our
Lady,
February 10, 1978
WOE TO THE WOMAN
"Know, My child, this simple lesson, that in these days of the latter times,
women will seek to cast off their role as mother and a woman. Women will cast it
off under the direction of satan, and murder her children. Woe to the woman who
does not repent of this vile abomination! She has walked the road to eternal
damnation and hell. Repent, O woman, or forever be lost!" -
Our Lady, March 18, 1975
Your names have been written in Heaven… "It is not by accident that
you are called by My Mother, for your names have been written in Heaven.... But
with this great grace you have great responsibility to send this Message from
Heaven throughout the world, for if you are able to recover just one more for
Heaven, an additional star shall be placed in your crown." - Jesus, August 5,
1975
A great obligation to go forward... "It is not by accident that you
are called by My Mother, for it is by merit and the prayers that have risen to
Heaven for your salvation. For those who have received the grace to hear the
Message from Heaven, you have a great obligation to go forward and bring this
Message to your brothers and sisters. Do not expect a rest upon your earth, for
you will have eternal rest very soon." - Jesus, June 12, 1976
The sin of omission... "The sin of omission
shall condemn many to hell, be they layman or Hierarchy. I repeat: not the sin
