Priest Bans Pro-Abort Political Party from Meeting in Church Hall
by Jules Gomes, Church Militant:
Pro-lifers are applauding the courage of a Catholic priest who slammed the door in the face of a pro-abortion political party by banning the party’s deputy first minister from speaking in his church hall.
Father Eugene O’Neill, parish priest of St. Patrick’s Church in Coalisland, County Tyrone, canceled a booking of the left-wing Irish political party Sinn Féin on church property after being alerted by pro-lifers.
The parish hall had been booked for Sinn Féin’s Deputy First Minister Michelle O’Neill to address a public meeting on Thursday night. The politician, who represents the area, lives in the neighboring parish of Clonoe.
In June 2018, O’Neill demanded that Sinn Féin legislators should not be allowed freedom of conscience to vote on the issue of abortion, insisting that her party members should vote in favor of pro-abortion legislation regardless of their personal views.
