| 0:00.0 | Welcome to our daily Rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. |
| 0:05.5 | Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for. |
| 0:11.0 | We've been meditating on the fifth commandment, |
| 0:13.0 | thou shalt not kill, and that brings us to the scourge of abortion |
| 0:18.0 | that so many leaders and states are literally hell-bent on protecting and promoting. |
| 0:24.6 | Now throughout human history, every time one group of people |
| 0:29.6 | has wanted to violate another group of people, they justify it by trying to find some way, however |

| 1:47.1 | babies in the womb and everyone else. They're looking for something different about babies that will make it legitimate to slaughter them. |
| 1:57.0 | But there is no such difference because everyone knows those kids in the womb are living human persons with a complete and unique genetic identity. |
| 2:10.0 | And that means they are persons who deserve our respect and our love and our protection. |
| 2:20.0 | Our Father who art in heaven, hallow would be your name, |
| 2:25.0 | Thy kingdom come by will be done on earth as it is in heaven. |
| 2:29.0 | Give us to stay our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us |
