Some people are expressing anxiety about signing on-line petitions to the bishops. To soothe consciences may we refer our readers to Canon Law - specifically Canon 212.3
Christ's faithful... have the right, indeed at times the duty, in keeping with their knowledge, competence, and position, to manifest to the sacred Pastors their views on matters which concern the good of the Church. They have the right also to make their views known to others of Christ's faithful, but in doing so they must always respect the integrity of faith and morals, show due reverence to the Pastors and take into account both the common good and the dignity of individuals.
Also, the petition is worded respectfully, honestly and deals with a matter that is, quite literally, of life and death.
