The dissident group Catholics for a Free Choice is deceptively using a popular devotional image to promote abortion among Hispanics Catholics, asking Our Lady of Guadalupe to "keep abortion legal."
Our Lady of Guadalupe is the patroness of the Americas, but more pointedly, she is also the patroness of the unborn. Before the arrival of Spanish missionaries, the Aztecs were offering as many as ten thousand young people each year in human sacrifice to the serpent god.
Polls have consistently shown Hispanics to be aggressively Catholic and pro-life and that they are trending towards the Republicans because of social issues. Hopefully, Hispanics will not be deceived by the religious trickery of Catholics for a Free Choice, which misrepresents the Catholic Church's position on abortion.

Question has the RCC excomunicated this group yet, it is obvious to this Lutheran that, that group is indead in some major Harasy, and unrepentant for their sin of support of the murder of the unborn.
You can not excomunicate a group, only individuals. If you support abortion, you are not part of the Christain faith, much less the Roman Catholic Church.
According to records filed with the IRS, Catholics For a Free Choice, of Washington, DC, has received thousands of dollars from the Playboy Foundation.
Daniel C. Maguire, professor of moral theology at Marquette University, is on CFFC's board of directors. He has written numerous pamphlets, articles and books promoting abortion, euthanasia and homosexuality!
Maguire, who teaches several freshman sections of "Theology and Morals" at Marquette, has been neither excommunicated nor removed from his tenured position -- although the Vatican issued a 49-page document in September 1990 charging universities to be more accountable for what they teach. Bishops have a "right and a duty," the document states, "to watch over" universities in their dioceses.
It is the Bishops and other faithful that need to step up and demand enforcement of the church teachings.
