CWN Editor's Note: Protesters burst into Catholic churches and disrupted Sunday Mass by shouting abuse on October 26, after a court ruling restricted legal abortion. Archbishop Stanislaw Gadecki of Poznan, the president of the nation’s episcopal conference rebuked the invaders: ““Profanity, violence, abusive inscriptions, and the disturbance of services and profanations that have been committed in recent days—although they may help some people to defuse their emotions—are not the right way to act in a democratic state.”
