The doctrine of the universal Church regarding abortion is clear, human life must be respected and protected from the moment of conception. From the first moment of existance, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person-among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life.
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you, Jer 1:5.
Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchanged. You shall not kill the embroy by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish. God, the Lord of life, has entrusted to men the noble mission of safeguarding life, and men must carry it out in a manner worth of themselves Life must be be protected with the utmost care from the moment of conception; abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes.
"The inalienable rights of the person (embroy) must be recognized and respected by civil society and the political authority. These human rights depend neither on single individuals nor on parents; nor do they represent a concession made by society and the state; they belong to human nature and are inherent in the person by virtue of the creative act from which the person took this origin. Among such fundamental rights one should mention in this regard every human being's right to life and physical integrity from the moment of conception until death. Since it must be treated from conception as a person, the embryo must be defended in its integrity, cared for, and healed, as far as possible, like any other human being".
Catechism of the Holy Catholic Church

Religion comes from the latin work "religo" meaning to bind together. Religion is the establishment of a self-conscious awareness and direct exposure to a higher power that is common and unique to groups of liked minded people. This supernatural experience enables the believer that there is a a creator and destructor whom created all things visible and invisible including humanity.
Spirit comes from the latin word "spiritus" which means "breath, life, air". If you have "breath" then you have spirit and you are "spiritual".
Christianity is establishing a relationship empowered by the Holy Spirit through the lamb of God Jesus while worshipping God Almighty the Father of humanity, the one who is worthy of worship, praise and is to be glorified.

Christian Pedagogue
James 3:1
Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2 We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.
Two Kinds of Wisdom
James 13 - 18
13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. 15 Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. 16 For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. 18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
Faith of the believer
True discipleship is a refusal to be assimilated into a culture of destruction and bigotry. The Borg depicted in Star Trek has a collective that forces adaptation into an organism controlled by a Borg Queen which operated solely toward the fulfilling of one purpose. Assimilation means adaptation to something corrupt and evil to humankind. Today the Borg is radical, liberal and progressive which seeks to control the individuals intellectual capacity and our natural creative reasoning granted by God.
To question the what, why and who the New Borg (secularism) and its purpose has been characterized as being of sin and against the collective. Our relationship with God through Jesus' sacrifice on the cross and the power of the Holy Spirit is our salvation. A relationship that absolves us from historical inaccuracies of secularism and its collective that re-writes history and human consciousness.
The power of the Holy Spirit fuels our flames for the truth which is our salvation and liberation. We are aware that no longer will we be a slaves to the modern secularism and its purpose. Our direct consciousness of Almighty God and his grace and mercy offered is emancipation and breaking of the chains of modern secularism. Refusal to assimilate into the authorities of a culture of spiritual destruction designed by imposters that may result in worldly persecution.
The true servant of God who is touched by the hand of GOD will be able to see through the blindness of the world.
The Sacraments
Baptism:
Baptism is a sign of profession and mark of difference whereby Christians are distinguished from others whom are not baptized, and represents a sign of regeneration of the new birth. Infants and children are members of the Kingdom of GOD and benefit from Christ's sacrifice on the cross, therefore baptism of infants and children has been the practice of the early and modern church. Baptism as a means of grace is the pathway of salvation, the entry doorway to the body of Christ.
Eucharist:
Communion or the Lord's Supper is a sacrament and open to all members of the body of Christ as a means of GOD's grace. We acknowledge Christ's presence at the Lord's Supper.
