FDA Complicity in Chemical Infanticide Exposes Apostate State’s Moral Bankruptcy
Catholic News Agency portal reports (December 10, 2025) on allegations that Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Marty Makary delayed safety reviews of the abortion drug mifepristone until after midterm elections. While Health and Human Services denies these claims as “baseless,” pro-life advocates including Sen. Josh Hawley demand reinstatement of safety regulations removed under the Biden administration. The article notes two peer-reviewed studies showing 10% of women experience serious adverse effects from chemical abortions, while Live Action’s Lila Rose insists “The FDA must act NOW to protect children and their mothers.”
Naturalistic Reduction of Moral Evil to “Safety Concerns”
The entire debate framework exemplifies what Pius IX condemned in the Syllabus of Errors – the reduction of divine law to mere technical “safety” considerations. While Sen. Hawley speaks of “playing politics with women’s health,” this language itself constitutes blasphemous equivocation by treating chemical infanticide as a medical procedure rather than what Pius XI called “that horrible crime which kills the child in its mother’s womb” (Casti Connubii). The article’s focus on “adverse reactions” tacitly accepts the underlying premise that murder becomes problematic only when physically dangerous to the perpetrator.
Nowhere does this “pro-life” analysis reference the immediate excommunication latae sententiae incurred by all involved in abortion (Canon 1398, 1917 Code). Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America’s Marjorie Dannenfelser exposes her movement’s bankruptcy by complaining the FDA is “undermining President Trump and Vice President Vance’s pro-life credentials” rather than demanding their imprisonment under laws prohibiting mass murder. This confirms St. Pius X’s warning that “the worst thing is not the sins of the wicked, but the indifference of the good” (Address to Priests, August 1912).
Omission of Supernatural Reality in Favor of Utilitarian Calculations
The article’s claim that “there are more abortions in America now than when Roe was still law” betrays a complete theological illiteracy. Quas primas establishes that “Christ not only must reign in private as God, but in public as King” (Pius XI), yet the entire discussion occurs within the modernist paradigm where civil authority exists independently of Christ’s sovereignty. Not a single quoted “pro-life” voice references the social kingship of Christ or demands prosecution of abortionists under divine law – only regulatory tweaks to a fundamentally Godless system.
The FDA’s approval of mail-order abortion pills constitutes formal cooperation with mass murder, yet the article treats this as a bureaucratic oversight rather than what St. Thomas Aquinas identifies as “participation in another’s sin” (Summa II-II q.62 a.7). Nowhere is it noted that every abortion – chemical or surgical – kills an immortal soul denied baptismal grace, damning countless souls for eternity. This silence confirms the observation in Lamentabili sane exitu that modernist discourse reduces religion to “man’s self-awareness of his relationship to God” (Proposition 20), denying the supernatural order.
False Opposition Between “Pro-Life” and “Pro-Choice” Political Factions
Both Republican and Democratic politicians operate within the same Godless framework condemned by Pope Pius IX: “The State, as being the origin and source of all rights, is endowed with a certain right not circumscribed by any limits” (Syllabus of Errors, Proposition 39). When HHS Secretary Robert Kennedy promises “gold-standard science and evidence-based reviews,” he invokes what Pius XII called “the cult of science, that false idol to which so many would sacrifice all” (Address to Pontifical Academy of Sciences, 1951). The article’s political theater – Hawley versus Makary, Trump versus Biden – masks the shared apostasy of a regime that has formally rejected Christ’s kingship.
The American Association of Pro Life OBGYNs’ demand to “reinstate safeguards around the drug” ignores that these very “safeguards” were established under the same FDA regime that approved mifepristone in 2000. As Pius XI warned in Quas primas, “There can be no true peace between nations except in the Kingdom of Christ” – meaning all political solutions divorced from Catholic restoration constitute diabolical deception. That not one quoted source demands the death penalty for abortionists (as required by Canon 2350 §1 of the 1917 Code) reveals their complicity in the culture of death.
The Anti-Church’s False Mercy Toward Child-Killers
Live Action’s theatrics about “protecting children” ring hollow while their website promotes “sidewalk counseling” rather than demanding the death penalty for abortionists as mandated by Pope Pius IX’s Apostolicae Sedis. This sentimentalism constitutes what St. Augustine called “the compassion of the damned” – pity for murderers rather than justice for victims (City of God XXI.13). The article’s hand-wringing over “coerced abortions” ignores that under Catholic penal law, coercing abortion warrants excommunication and imprisonment (1917 CIC 2350 §2).
The complete absence of any reference to sacramental confession for abortionists or post-abortive women demonstrates the spiritual bankruptcy of these “pro-life” activists. Rather than calling abortionists to repent under pain of hellfire, they beg Godless bureaucrats for regulatory favors. This confirms St. Pius X’s condemnation of modernist theology that “makes dogma acceptable to rationalists” (Pascendi §30) by reducing mortal sin to “health policy.”
True Catholic action would follow Archbishop Lefebvre’s uncompromising stance: “We refuse to collaborate in the destruction of the Church and the ruin of the priesthood. We refuse to collaborate in the poisoning of souls” (Open Letter to Confused Catholics). Until the FDA commissioners face criminal prosecution for mass murder under Catholic law, all political posturing constitutes cooperation with Satan’s slaughter of innocents. The blood of sixty million murdered children cries to heaven for vengeance, while apostate bureaucrats debate “safety protocols” as if operating gas chambers humanely were possible.
