Q and A: Dr. Frederick Hoenke
By Hattie Hanold
The U.P. Catholic
"I grew up in an agnostic home, my mother was very negative toward organized religion. We did not attend church. My faith slowly found me over a number of years, and I was a physician for quite a few years before joining the Catholic Church. I gradually grew more dissatisfied with the lack of answers to the really big questions that science does not really provide. After witnessing in training a couple of abortions, it was crystal clear to me that this was biologically untenable and deep down, morally indefensible. That was a push towards the Church, which has never abandoned its stance on this matter ... Throughout our lives we have repeatedly witnessed the goodness of God."
