  • In some European countries, hospitals have stopped performing abortions. In others, where abortion is severely restricted, women have been unable to travel to get treatment elsewhere.
    In the past few weeks we’ve spoken to women who have resorted to backstreet abortions, and others left with no choice but to continue with unwanted pregnancies.
    Human rights organisations are now urging countries to make sure abortions are safely available.

    I don't think I will ever be able to go through abortion even if the situation is tough but I will never condemn any woman for it. Children are murdered and abused every day, but society only cares about fetuses. As soon as the child is born you don't give a damn about it. You don't care whether it will live in a dysfunctional family, in poverty, etc. But the fetus is precious. How so?

      Preserving life is the most important thing. If the child a child is abused at least it’s still alive and a mothers role is to protect her child even if they are poor. Also The government cares about children more than adults, that’s why there is social services. Every child should have the chance to live

      jcholland Stones nothing, if I get pregnant then I would have it. Not the child’s fault. But to the woman who said her boyfriend tricked her, she should trick him into taking care of the kid. I don’t know why birth control is not used anymore. I know almost no one taking it. If no birth control and still having sex with the virus around is nuts. Your immune system is lower, much lower so it makes it dangerous to get pregnant now. But that will not even stop people. Even if it were not a sin matter and just a dangerous thing to do, people don’t care. AIDS did little to stop em and STDs that are hard to cure these days with a shot does little to stop em. If there were a disease that made sex organs fall off and rot it would not stop people. No one wants to throw stones because sin is easy to fall into and I know that myself but it’s not the child’s fault and don’t say it’s the women’s body because it’s also the child’s body or that if the fetus can’t live on the outside by itself it ok to kill it because full term it can’t live without the mother even if it were 1 year old . Jesus did not stone the woman but did say go and sin no more . It’s easy to use that bible story but in the end we are to be accountable for actions and raise the child. I decided I did not want kids because I moved around way too much and did not. It’s easy to do with pills and just saying no to these guys out here. But no one wants to. Sex is so good is worth killing for, literally.

      "it was there fault not using birth control" in some countries women don't even HAVE access to birth control. They're not allowed it, the religion in some countries goes completely against birth control. Some women can't afford it as it's literally 100$ for just the pill even w insurance for some women (the pill is only about 70% effective) and that's 3 in 10 women that get pregnant using the pill. You can't stop people from having the simple pleasure of sex because the fear of pregnancy and that its "the women's fault her birth control failed" or "that woman tried to trap him and he left so she has no other choice". We should have MORE 100% effective ways for birth control, women should be able to make the choices of getting their tubes burned or tied (which it isnt, it's up to the partner of the woman or the woman doesn't qualify unless 3 children are produced) so I don't wanna hear that it's a woman/man's fault for having sex. When sex is literally apart of pleasure and human contact, and human life.

    I fought, internally warred, with self worth, depression, weight, and idenitity. In my childhood, my dad was very critical. Everything was about appearance to him. He constantly oogled women and made comments about their physical attributes to me, even when I was a little girl as young as 5 yo. So, I grew up thinking women were just objects for men's pleasure. I had very little sense of worth. My heart was 💔. I started battling depression in my teens and wanted to die many times. I developed a warped idea of food and eating, which of course led to an eating disorder. I let men use and abuse me. I had two abortions, one at 19, one at 20. I was a dark, broken, angry, bitter, mess, wrapped in a young woman's body and I plastered a smile on my face for public use so no-one knew the destruction inside. At 30, after going through a divorce from a narcissistic addict who cheated all the time, I was then a single mother of an 18 m/o. At that moment I reached my breaking point and realized I needed help. A friend, who truly cared, asked me why I didn't believe in God and Jesus Christ. I didn't have a good answer...it was simply that I felt I could only trust myself and I doubted there was a God when I looked at all the pain in the 🌎. Not long after our conversation, I heard the Gospel, which is the Good News that Jesus Christ came to earth 2000 years ago, fully God and fully man, to be the ultimate sacrifice for our sins, so that we could then be counted as God's children here on earth and then for eternity in Heaven. WHOA!! That blew me away....Jesus loves me (and you) so much that he allowed himself to be mocked, ridiculed, BEATEN, and HUNG BY SPIKES AND ROPE ON A ✝, then he was brought back to life by God the Father after three days, spoke to his many disciples and then ascended to Heaven in his glorified body!! AND, He did that as the ultimate sacrifice for our sins. All we need to do is believe he is alive, repent of our sins, and pursue him in prayer and in his WORD, the HOLY Bible. Abortion is a sin because its spilling the blood of the innocent lives God created. God wants to forgive us tho and that's why He sent Jesus. Since the moment I said yes to Jesus, he has given me SO much. He healed my ❤ from all the pain and regrets of my life. No more depression or questions about my value. I'm a new creation through Him, and because I chose Him, I'm worthy of God's goodness. He gave me a new life... a new job, a new husband who loves me for me, not what I look like or what I can do for him, a new home, the $ ability to send my child to private school. He blessed me with a 4th child (2 in Heaven, 2 on earth), the college diploma I had worked for but had not received, work promotions/bonuses, and now I'm blessed to be at home and care for my elderly mother and young child. The Lord gives me peace, love, kindness, joy, patience, comfort, strength, and goodness! The Lord is our great councilor if we'll let him. I've never regretted choosing Jesus. He's waiting for you TODAY! He wants to heal you, love you, and be with you for eternity! If you don't know him, I challenge you to just ask Him... Jesus, are you real, are you alive, did you create me, is the Bible your word, etc.??? If you're sincere in your questions, he'll answer you. I pray you don't doubt when He answers you! May God bless you!
