Dad29: More Bad Press for Marquette U

Buried in the middle of the "Catholic" Healthcare West/St Joseph's Hospital of Arizona story, we find this:

The bishop, in a letter dated Nov. 22, said he disagreed with an extensive analysis by Marquette University theologian M. Therese Lysaught that argued that the intention of doctors involved in the case, and the mother, was primarily to save the mother’s life – not to end the life of the fetus.

Oh, well.

Here's the lede, in case you haven't yet heard:

The Catholic Diocese of Phoenix has removed St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center’s status as a Catholic hospital for failing to strictly adhere to Bishop Thomas Olmsted’s demands that the hospital comply with church moral teaching.

Can't be 'Catholic' and perform abortions the way St Joe's did.

Here's the statement from the Diocese.

I've been wondering if procured abortion is the only thing the bishops are ready to address at their hospitals.  From Reiki, to contraception, to euthanasia, there's probably a host of things that need to be addressed.
