Catholic News Agency reports on a sidewalk counselor discovering a woman abandoned in agony outside Chicago’s Planned Parenthood Elizabeth Cohn Morris Health Center on November 15, 2025. Video evidence shows Jacob Tipre of Coalition Life attending to the woman who testified: “They just do the procedure, and they threw me out on the streets… They just threw me out on the streets.” Planned Parenthood officials refused comment while emergency services responded. Coalition Life plans increased sidewalk counseling at this location, citing this incident as evidence of abortion facilities’ disregard for women’s welfare. The report promotes pro-life alternatives like Women’s Care Center and Aid For Women.
Physical Brutality as Standard Abortion Industry Practice
The abandonment of a hemorrhaging woman constitutes systematic medical malpractice inherent to abortion mills. Pius XI’s Casti Connubii (1930) condemned abortion as “the direct murder of the innocent” (par. 64), while the 1917 Code of Canon Law mandated excommunication for abortionists (Canon 2350). This incident proves abortionists’ contempt for both unborn children and mothers, reducing women to disposable revenue streams. The absence of Planned Parenthood staff assisting their patient exposes the lie of “women’s healthcare” – a demonic deception enabling what St. Augustine called “the cruel lust of the flesh” (On Marriage and Concupiscence, Book I, Chapter 17).
Spiritual Neglect: The Unmentioned Eternal Consequences
While the article details physical suffering, it ignores the mortal sin committed through abortion. The Council of Trent’s Decree on Justification (Session VI, Chapter XV) declares mortal sins “make men enemies of God” and “slaves of the devil.” Post-abortion complications symbolize the spiritual reality: “The wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). By focusing solely on bodily harm, the report perpetuates the naturalistic error condemned in Pius XII’s Humani Generis (1950), which warned against reducing religion to “earthly human realities” (par. 35).
Conciliar Sect’s Complicit Silence
Notably absent is any mention of sacramental reconciliation for post-abortive women. The conciliar sect’s “ministry of accompaniment” betrays Catholic discipline by withholding the necessary call to repentance. True Catholic pastoral practice follows St. John Vianney’s counsel: “Show the sinner the depths of his fall to make him desire rising again.” The Catechism of St. Pius X mandates priests to demand abortion participants “confess their sin to receive absolution” (Sacraments, Confession). Modern “mercy” without penance constitutes soul-damning fraud.
Sidewalk Counseling’s Imperfect Response
While Coalition Life’s work merits praise for material aid, their approach dangerously resembles the conciliar sect’s horizontalism. True Catholic rescue missions must prioritize:
1. Soul salvation through immediate sacramental access (conditional baptism for non-Catholics, confession for Catholics)
2. Public reparation for abortion sacrilege via Eucharistic processions as ordered in Quas Primas (Pius XI, 1925)
3. Legal action demanding enforcement of Illinois’ negligent homicide statutes against abortionists
As St. Alphonsus Liguori taught: “It is useless to attack effects while leaving causes intact” (Theologia Moralis). Unless sidewalk counselors confront the spiritual root of abortion – society’s rejection of Christ the King – they merely apply bandages to gaping wounds.
