Lila Rose in her own words

Lila Rose, of Live Action fame, tells of her conversion to Catholicism.  I throw this out to add my own mite to the debate and at least give some little expansion to her platform.  The reason is due to the firestorm her actions caused about a year or so ago.  Beginning with a full broadside from Dawn Eden, the conversation quickly moved from 'wow, that could be serious if Planned Parenthood is breaking the law in order to help minors get abortions' to 'that lying bitch! how dare her sin when she's trying to save babies and teenagers.'  

Whether or not one should tell any lie ever in order to save the lives of innocents, or if such is ever prudent or could lead to moral dilemmas down the road, was of course fair game.  The Church, at this time, appears to fall on the side that lying is never - N.E.V.E.R. - right.  Fair enough.  But in typical Internet fashion, the comboxes became a sludge-pit of judgementalism, self-righteousness, and service to the pro-abortion crowd that was more than happy to join in the Lila-Trashing while agreeing that we should ignore the man behind the curtain.

So here's Lila.  Take her story for what it is.  I take it at face value and, even if I see the problems with her tactics, feel that a pastoral nudge toward the right way would be the better approach to helping her in her mission, rather than just hamstringing her because I didn't come up with a better way of fighting such gross injustices in the first place.
