New Jersey’s Assault on Pro-Life Centers Exposes State Hostility to Christ’s Kingship
The Catholic News Agency portal (November 21, 2025) reports on First Choice Women’s Resource Centers, a New Jersey-based Christian nonprofit, resisting the state attorney general’s demand for 10 years of donor records, advertising materials, and communications about abortion pill reversal. Aimee Huber, the organization’s director, characterizes the subpoena—issued without allegations of wrongdoing—as a “fishing expedition” targeting pro-life speech. The case, now before the U.S. Supreme Court, exemplifies the state’s campaign to suppress Catholic moral witness under the guise of consumer protection.
The State’s Usurpation of Divine Authority
Attorney General Matthew Platkin’s actions violate the foundational principle articulated in Pius XI’s encyclical Quas primas: “Kings and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ” (1925). By weaponizing state power to intimidate a ministry providing free ultrasounds, parenting classes, and material support to 36,000 women, New Jersey commits the error condemned in the Syllabus of Errors: “The State, as being the origin and source of all rights, is endowed with a certain right not circumscribed by any limits” (Proposition 39). The demand for donor lists—crafted with Planned Parenthood’s collaboration—reveals a tyrannical impulse to eradicate Christian charity that challenges the culture of death.
Omission of Supernal Realities in “Pro-Life” Discourse
While the article praises First Choice’s humanitarian work, it reduces Catholic action to mere philanthropy, omitting the center’s duty to “make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19). The testimony of “Meera,” who calls the center her “guiding light,” illustrates this spiritual bankruptcy: Nowhere does the report mention if clients receive sacramental guidance, catechesis on the mortal sin of abortion, or invitations to reconcile with the Church. This naturalism aligns with the modernist heresy denounced in Lamentabili sane exitu: “The Church is incapable of effectively defending evangelical ethics because it steadfastly adheres to its views, which cannot be reconciled with modern progress” (Proposition 63).
“If donors and volunteers were no longer to remain anonymous, the center’s mission would significantly be impacted,” Banks said.
This pragmatic defense of donor privacy ignores the doctrinal imperative to proclaim truth regardless of consequences. The early Christians faced lions, not subpoenas; their defiance flowed from “the obedience owed to God rather than men” (Acts 5:29). Alliance Defending Freedom’s argument—that “any organization, right or left” deserves confidentiality—equates the Gospel with political speech, reducing the Church’s mission to a partisan contest.
The Masonic Blueprint Behind “Consumer Alerts”
Platkin’s collaboration with Planned Parenthood in drafting warnings against pregnancy centers follows the Masonic strategy exposed in the Syllabus: “The entire human society had to be shaken because it lacked a stable and strong foundation” (Pius IX). By framing pro-life speech as “misinformation,” the state enacts the modernist dogma that “truth changes with man, because it develops with him, in him, and through him” (Lamentabili, Proposition 58). The vandalism of pregnancy centers—like Aid for Women’s clinic in Illinois—manifests the satanic hatred foretold in Genesis 3:15.
Capitulation to the Anti-Church
Notably absent is any call for bishops to excommunicate Platkin or mobilize Eucharistic processions reasserting Christ’s kingship over New Jersey. Instead, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops offers legal support—a tacit admission that the conciliar sect has abandoned its spiritual weapons. When the article cites the Charlotte Lozier Institute’s report on pregnancy centers providing “$452 million in services,” it reduces the Church to a NGO, forgetting Pius XI’s warning: “When God and Jesus Christ were removed from laws and states, the foundations of authority were destroyed” (Quas primas).
Conclusion: Restoring the Crown Rights of Christ
First Choice’s legal battle, though noble, cannot substitute for the unbloody Sacrifice of Calvary offered in reparation for New Jersey’s 48,000 annual abortions. Until Catholics demand that civil leaders “kiss the Son, lest He be angry” (Psalm 2:12), the state will continue its war against the innocent. Let this case ignite a crusade to enthrone Christ the King in every courthouse, clinic, and legislature—for “there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).
