Archbishop Porteous responds to Tasmanian Euthanasia Bill

1

Archbishop Julian Porteous“…we are facing an enormous and dramatic clash between good and evil, death and life, the “culture of death” and the “culture of life”. We find ourselves not only “faced with” but necessarily “in the midst of” this conflict: we are all involved and we all share in it, with the inescapable responsibility of choosing to be unconditionally pro-life.”

– Bl John Paul II, Evangelium Vitae

In his homily for the 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Archbishop Julian Porteous responds to euthanasia legislation currently before the Tasmanian parliament. He reflects on Blessed John Paul II’s Evangelium Vitae, urging us to build a culture that upholds the sanctity of life from the moment of conception to its natural end.
