Feminists don’t speak for women
Oct 29, 2007
Cardinal Nicolas de Jesus Lopez Rodriguez of Santo Domingo, responded to criticism by radical feminists this week who accused him of pressuring the country’s legislature not to legalize abortion, saying these groups do not represent the interests of women.
Santo Domingo, Oct 26, 2007 / 11:14 am (CNA).- “Women have always had all of my respect,” the cardinal said, “but I have never agreed, nor will I ever agree, with feminists of the bad kind, who are given over to everything except helping women.”
According to the cardinal, feminists, together with the United Nations, are the ones pressuring the governments of the world to legalize abortion.
Feminist groups, he explained, do not fight for the dignity of women, but rather they bring women down with the help of some sectors of society. “Only an imbecile, a moron, someone ignorant of everything, could defend that position,” he said.
