This stuff is here because I either care about it or think it's at least mildly interesting.

"Where life is involved, the service of charity must be profoundly consistent. It cannot tolerate bias and discrimination, for human life is sacred and inviolable at every stage and in every situation; it is an indivisible good. We need then to "show care" for all life and for the life of everyone. Indeed, at an even deeper level, we need to go to the very roots of life and love."

(Pope John Paul II, Evangelium Vitae, n. 87, 1995)
