Abortion is ‘greatest violation of a woman’

-

Dear Editor,

The issue of Abortion is not just a Christian issue, but an issue of Natural Law, Civil Rights, an Equality issue and an issue of the greatest abuse of Children in the womb.

The Chief Rabbi of Ireland has said that “the killing of Children efore birth is comparable to the Holocaust’’.

At three weeks a baby’s heart starts beating.

Slavery was the major human rights issue of the 17 th 18th and 19 th Centuries.

The Nazi Holocaust to exterminat­e the handicappe­d, the unproducti­ve citizens and the Jews, homosexual­s and gypsies was the major issue of the 20 th Century.

Yet, the evil continues now and abortion is the major abominatio­n of the 20 th and 21st Centuries.

In the U.S.A. 3,000 babies are killed in the womb every day. In England and Wales 3,500 babies are killed in the womb each week.

Abortion is the greatest violation of a woman and a perversion of motherhood.

If a baby in the womb could speak it would say: “If you see me in a panic as a mere collection of cells, as an inconvenie­nce, as an embarrassm­ent to you, as a block to your future, as a non human being, then you are very blind to the truth of me.

“I am a precious unique gift from God. Please please do not kill me. You would not kill me a fortnight after my birth so why kill me now just because I happen to be located in the womb?”

We cannot kill. We must not kill. Please save our precious 8th Amendment and vote no.

Regards, Tommy Banks. Templenabr­ee, Knocknahur, Co. Sligo.
