A "pro-choice saint"?

USA Today reports, in a sidebar to a column by Tom Ehrich on religious views on abortion, that:

The popes have taught that abortion is always forbidden, and the church hierarchy has held to a doctrine that strongly opposes it.  Even so, grounds for permitting abortion exist in the Catholic tradition, and many Catholic theological authorities permit abortion in a variety of situations. There is even a pro-choice Catholic saint, the 15th century archbishop of Florence, St. Antoninus. He approved of early abortions when needed to save the life of the mother, a huge category in his day. There is thus no one Catholic view.

Sigh.  At least we're eating more beets . . . .
