"Jesuit university in Mexico hosts pro-abortion event, touting ‘freedom of conscience’"
lifesitenews.com
"A Jesuit university in Mexico hosted a pro-abortion event despite pro-life protests and a temporary cancellation.
On September 26, the ITESO (Western Institute for Technology of Education) - Jesuit University of Guadalajara hosted three pro-abortion speakers. Although the event had been advertised as a 'dialogue,' no pro-lifers were invited to speak. The event was called 'Dialogue on the Right to Decide.'
'That makes it actually a purely pro-abortion act of proselytism,' Guadalajara resident Martín Alonso López told LifeSiteNews via email.
The pro-abortion speakers were Guadalupe Ramos, an activist from CLADEM (Comité de América Latina y El Caribe para la Defensa de los Derechos de la Mujer), an organization that promotes abortion as a 'woman’s right'; Karen Luna, an activist from GIRE (Grupo de Información en Reproducción Elegida), one of Mexico’s biggest feminist organizations; and María de la Luz Estrada, from Católicas por el Derecho a Decidir ('Catholics for Choice').
The presentation, recorded at the University’s Pedro Arrupe, S.J. Auditorium, can be viewed on Youtube.
López said that the event was organized by some students of international affairs and public administration and that the Rector of the University, a Jesuit priest named José Morales Orozco, granted permission.
A tweet from the university shows the rector on stage with the abortion activists, and quotes him as saying, 'There is no greater respect than respect for freedom of conscience.'...
Fr. Orozco [Rector, José Morales Orozco, SJ] gave the opening speech at the pro-abortion event...
'He also made a demonstration of his open mind by saying that the university is open to dialogue, and that one should respect another's freedom of conscience,' the young man continued, 'which actually meant that the morality of abortion depends on each one's personal views and not on the objective fact that it ends the life on an innocent human being.'...
This is not the first time the Jesuit university has encouraged abortion advocacy. ITESO’s 'Magis' journal recently published an article arguing for abortion from a Marxist perspective."
