CNA Staff, Feb 23, 2021 / 01:00 pm (CNA).- Twitter has restored an Irish Catholic bishop’s post about assisted suicide following a review.
In the Jan. 31 tweet, Bishop Kevin Doran expressed opposition to efforts to legalize the practice in Ireland.
He wrote: “There is dignity in dying. As a priest, I am privileged to witness it often. Assisted suicide, where it is practiced, is not an expression of freedom or dignity, but of the failure of a society to accompany people on their ‘way of the cross.’”
The tweet included a link to the Facebook page of the Diocese of Elphin, which Doran has led since 2014. The link directed readers to a message inviting healthcare professionals to add their names to a petition expressing concern about a bill to legalize physician-assisted suicide in Ireland.

Cardinal Dominik Duka of Prague has stirred up a controversy after he described COVID-19 as China s biological weapon, during a homily in Vitus Cathedral earlier this month.
His February 6 sermon featuring this claim has since been widely circulated and can be viewed here. The Chinese virus is the worst. It is a leaked biological weapon, the 77-year-old Dominican cardinal said.
He also maintained that his claims could be supported by the military. All military experts around the world are convinced of this, but they are either afraid to or do not dare say it, Cardinal Duka said.
Madrid, Spain, Jan 19, 2021 / 06:01 pm (CNA).- An association of Spanish education advocates will appeal to the European Union to prevent Spain’s socialist government from implementing an education law that will restrict the exercise of the rights of parents in deciding their children’s education.
The law, approved by the Spanish parliament Dec. 23, 2020, eliminates Spanish as the official language, and most importantly, prevents parents from choosing religious schools for their children.
Spain has a charter school program that allows private schools, most of which are Catholic, to receive significant financial resources from the government. About 50% of Spain’s students go to charter schools. The new law prevents parents who live in a district with a public school to opt into a charter school for their children, a blow to both parental freedom and the ability of charter schools to survive financially.
