In this episode, Dr. David Hajduk gives his take on whether you can call yourself "Catholic" and be "pro-choice." He makes clear what being "pro-choice" means and what being "Catholic" means, as well as what sort of choices, beliefs, and activities might make a person no longer in communion with the Catholic Church.
