Addressing the reasons for abortion

Leave a comment

As the 40th anniversary of “Roe v Wade” draws to a close, I thought I’d post another video from Trent Horn‘s recent segment on Catholic Answers radio where pro-choice callers were invited to call in with their questions.

I would really recommend that you watch it as it’s apologetics at its best – clear, logical and cordial. If you do watch it, please watch it right until the end as the final comment is simply  priceless.

(It’s also worth watching because at 6:20 Patrick, in true Canadian style,
uses the phrase “couldn’t care less”)

Knowing that my interest in the subject of psychology has been increasing recently, last week a friend gave me a paper written by Daniel G. Amen, MD on the subject of Automatic Negative Thoughts (ANTs). Those who suffer from depression will almost always suffer from Automatic Negative Thoughts, filling their minds of such people are filled with a succession of dispiriting thoughts. They view the world through a dim grey lens and this colours their thoughts concerning both themselves and others. They look to the past with regret, find the present unsatisfactory and look to the future with anxiety and pessimism.

I thought Dr. Amen’s paper contained such solid advice that I would write a short post here summarizing its contents.
