\n\u2022 Priests for Life, Inc., is not a Catholic institution, but a civil organization, and it is not under the control or supervision of the Diocese of Amarillo. <\/p>\n
\u2022 Father Frank Pavone has posted a video on his Facebook page of the body of an aborted fetus, which is against the dignity of human life and is a desecration of the altar. We believe that no one who is pro-life can exploit a human body for any reason, especially the body of a fetus. <\/p>\n
\u2022 The Diocese of Amarillo deeply regrets the offense and outrage caused by the video for the faithful and the community at large. The action and presentation of Father Pavone in this video is not consistent with the beliefs of the Catholic Church. <\/p>\n
\u2022 The Diocese of Amarillo is opening an investigation about all these matters. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
I wonder if Cdl. Dolan will do anything, since PFL is located in his archdiocese.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
