[From feministing]

This is just sickening.

The Colombian Catholic Church has excommunicated all of the people involved in obtaining an abortion for an eleven-year old rape victim. This includes the girl’s parents, the doctors, nurses, judges and politicians who were involved in the decision.

Archbishop Luis Augusto Castro, president of the Bishops’ Conference of Colombia, spoke out against the Court’s decision to allow abortion involving rape or incest cases, saying “The child is innocent…the criminal should be punished and put in jail for a long time, but the child should not have to pay for the sins of another. He is an innocent baby.”

Forget about the innocent child that was brutally raped.

Via Bring It On.
