"Believing Christians should look upon themselves as such a creative minority and ... espouse once again the best of its heritage, thereby being at the service of humankind at large." --Joseph Ratzinger
I was just thinking what BobRN said after watching this... I've often daydreamed about filling my home with those in need - but wouldn't last an afternoon before the laws would shut me down and the authorities would start taking children away.
I have a great grandfather who was known for taking in children and raising them... at one time dozens... some legally adopted - some not. They were all his children. These days? He'd never have made it through the adoption procedures even the first time.. he was an illiterate blacksmith.
Excellent! If you have a Facebook account, SHARE this story. It's rather comforting to hear about the Catholic struggle to prevent abortion in a country other than the US. Truly Catholic!
I was very touched by this story. If our US Government doesn't make exceptions to housing laws for allowing something like this in order to save the lives of all those babies -- and I don't know that it would -- there is something seriously wrong with our Government. Who isn't able to see that, with the manifest gross injustice of this henious unacceptance? They pick who is allowed to live and who isn't. Most of us are living, breathing, healthy free thinkers, so we're tolerated... at least for now.
I am pro-life advocate and on saturdays 7-8 of us go to Planned Parenthood to educate women and expose PP. I have never seen this kind of love before. I truly wish I could do the same as this Saint of a man but as someone mentioned I wouldn't get past the first adoption. How poor in spirit and love of Christ is our government. I will pray for this saint and I hope there is a way we can send donations to help him

Praise God! Thank you for posting this amazing story.
I bet he didn't say "embryos." I'm thinking he said "babies."
amazing!
Beautiful!
thank you. Bit by bit God raises up saints in this world.
This man is a living saint. God bless him.
God bless him.
I have only one question. How can we help?
This man is a saint. And let's not forget his wife! Behind every great man ...
If this happened in the US, the government would shut him down for violating residency laws. Too many people in one house. We have no shame!
How can we help him? Is there a fund for him?
