Henry Hyde, great Catholic Pro Life advocate and Congressman , died on the morning of the 27th November 2007. Please pray for his soul.
Henry Hyde tirelessly spoke on behalf of the Unborn Child and used his good office to protect then to the best of his ability.
Speaking of the failure of many in the Catholic hierarchy to speak up clearly against abortion and condemn so called Catholic politicians who were abortion advocates he said to the Chicgo Sun TImes in 1994:
“I am greatly disappointed with the failure of much of the church hierarchy to take an unequivocal stand on abortion.” Speaking of the tendency to equate issues such as poverty and healthcare and abortion, Hyde said it provides, “people like Ted Kennedy, Dick Durbin and John Kerry the cover they seek to maintain their Catholic affiliation and at the same time pander to Planned Parenthood.”“If the church doesn`t come out strong and condemn those who want to receive Holy Communion while not in the state of sanctifying grace, then the church has lost its moral authority, and that is tragic,” he concluded.

This is the last portrait of the Madonna and Child acomplished by Bellini. This subject was his particular favourite as can be seen in the tenderness apparent from the painting.
