The Church opposes abortion for the simple reason that it is the direct murder of an innocent human life, a clear violation of the revealed moral law of God, but also of the natural law. Abortion is wrong not because we Catholics say it is wrong, but because it's as wrong as any other form of murder. And we Catholics always will oppose it for that reason because it will always be murder.
