\"\"<\/a>Today I\u2019m breaking my blog silence on something that has been on everyone\u2019s mind this month, the abomination that is the Gosnell murder machine. I can\u2019t bring myself to refer to this man who is currently on trial for eight counts of murder as \u201cDoctor\u201d. He is clearly a monster.

He deserves every bit of punishment he can get, and yet the reminder of Blessed Pope John Paul II\u2019s epic forgiveness of his shooter reminds me to pray for conversion for Gosnell while I beseech God\u2019s comfort for his victims.<\/p>\n
