I can justify the murder of millions if my reason is “good enough”.
Can't you always do that anyway? Aside from hypothetical "no-killing-ever-ever" systems, the ones that really exist and are widely adopted always have killing exceptions, and they all revert to some kind of consequentialist decision process in sufficiently unusual circumstances (what is most virtuous? what violates the rules the least?).
I don't know, seems to me that all the talk about ethics is just wankery, that in the end it has to all be broadly isomorph.

It's both. Progressivism would be about recognizing gay marriage and women priests. There's really no dobut that the catholic church is pro immgration except in the minds of some online tradcaths that have projected their policy wishes on an organization because they like their buildings.

Catholic conservatives write two books (one even got 56 reviews on Amazon!) and go on the speaking circuit. Catholic conservatives get a majority on the Supreme Court and... devolve abortion to the states. There are no fewer abortions than before, no effective change. By some measures abortion figures actually rose, breaking a decade-long downtrend. Every ideology is doing something substantial and overt to advance their goals but the Catholic conservatives.
Catholic big wins are in immigration, especially in europe they have succeeded in greatly increasing immigration as well as legalizing existing illegal immigrants.

There are reasons for some of those and the entire population of that place is between one and two million people so coincidences are easier to swallow.
Based on "I had a bit of energy on this day" I guessed that it would be one of those I-dont-feel-like-getting-out-of-bed illnesses that mostly women get, like post-lyme or fibromyalgia, and I was right, although the one she has in particular (FNSD) I did not know. Although she usually just calls it "chronic illness" for some reason. Reference video.
