What is Pro Life? Are we sure

we are 100% Pro Life? – Part

VIII The Church teaches that all life is sa-

cred and must be cherished and pro-

tected from conception to natural

death. By keeping this guiding princi-

ple in mind in reviewing all the follow-

ing moral issues of today, we can

quickly see what it means to be 100%

Pro Life, no exceptions.

Suicide

The medical profession and society in

general have come to understand that

a person is not necessarily in control

of their mind when in a depressed

state. Suicide most often comes from

depression, a chemical imbalance in

the brain, sometimes fueled by old

psychological wounds and trauma.

Professional help is necessary and spir-

itual direction can be very helpful also.

Some say, it’s my life, why can’t I take

it? Why do I have to go on suffering?

Why should anyone tell me what I can

do with my own life?

We did not create our life and we can-

not end it. Suicide is against God’s

6th commandment, forbidding the

taking of any life including our own.

With the proper help, many times sui-

cide minded individuals have been

helped to recover and go on to lead

happy, productive lives, bringing joy

to themselves and others. No one

knows the future for anyone, including

themselves. We also must remember

to not judge the state of someone’s

mind in a depressed state. We do not

know God’s judgment or who goes to

heaven. People in a depressed state or

the mentally ill need our fervent pray-

ers and support.

If you believe that Suicide is wrong,

then you are Pro Life on this issue. Joan Murray

Lucas Texas

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA

FE Cuando era niño mi padre me llevaba al

rancho de mi abuelito en México. En

una de esas visitas mi abuelo y mis tíos

estaban quemando la tierra en su ran-

cho. Mientras el fuego ardía, papa Ma-

nuel nos explicaba que era necesario

reducir todo en cenizas para que la tierra

recobrara sus fuerzas y quedará más

fértil. Sin saberlo, mi abuelo me dio la

imagen que hasta hoy sostiene mi con-

cepto del Miércoles de Cenizas y de la

Cuaresma.

El Miércoles de Cenizas es la fiesta cris-

tiana que por lo menos doce siglos ha

señalado el comienzo de la Cuaresma.

No cabe duda que para los latinos este

día es de particular atracción. Es uno de

los pocos días del año litúrgico en cual

llegamos al templo en masa con tal de

recibir las cenizas en la frente.

Nosotros somos un pueblo enraizado en

la tierra y sabemos que la tierra necesita

quemarse de vez en cuando para seguir

produciendo. Nosotros como la tierra

necesitamos dominarnos y cultivarnos

para producir frutos y flores para el Se-

ñor y los demás.

¿Qué es ser pro-vida? ¿Estamos

seguros de ser 100% pro-vida? –

Parte VIII La Iglesia enseña que toda vida es sagra-

da y debe ser valorada y protegida desde

la concepción hasta la muerte natural.

Manteniendo en nuestra mente este prin-

cipio guiador cuando reveamos todos los

problemas morales de hoy en dia, rápi-

damente comprenderemos que quiere

decir que somos pro-vida 100%, sin ex-

cepciones.

Suicidio

La profesión médica y la sociedad han

venido a comprender que una persona

no está en control de su mente cuando

está en depresión. El suicidio general-

mente viene de una depresión, un des-

equilibrio químico del cerebro, algunas

veces ayudado por viejas heridas psicoló-

gicas y traumas. Es necesario recurrir a

la ayuda profesional y una dirección

espiritual puede ser muy útil.

Algunos razonan:¿es mi vida, porque no

lo puedo hacer? ¿Por qué debo seguir

sufriendo? ¿Por qué alguien debe impo-

nerme lo que yo debo hacer con mi vida?

Nosotros no creamos nuestra vida y

tampoco podemos terminarla. El suici-

dio va en contra del sexto mandamiento,

prohibiéndonos la destrucción de cual-

quier vida incluso la nuestra. Con la ayu-

da apropiada, muchas veces personas

que han decidido suicidarse, han podido

recuperarse y llevar vidas felices y pro-

ductivas, trayendo felicidad a los próji-

mos y a ellos mismos. También debemos

recordar de no juzgar la mente de al-

guien en un estado de depresión.

Las personas en un estado depresivo o

de enfermedad mental, necesitan nues-

tras fervientes oraciones y apoyo moral.

Si tú crees que el suicidio es pecado, en-

tonces tú eres Pro Vida en esta cuestión.
