Disabled Children Considered “Medical Errors”

Dr. Marie Peeters-Ney, director for medical research of the Michael Fund:

“The birth of a child with a chromosomal anomaly is now widely considered as a medical error and in certain countries lawsuits are filed against doctors because they failed to diagnose the ‘condition’ in utero. In an insidious manner, mentalities are changing and people now regard persons with a handicap as someone who should not be there.”

Abortion Book: Keeping Abortion Secret May Be a Positive Experience

In a book that is meant to help women considering abortion, the author encourages teens not to tell their parents:

“However sad or angry you feel right now, keep in mind and not involving a parent is often a sign of maturity – that you are able to make and take responsibility for your own decisions. Keeping the pregnancy and abortion a secret may even turn out to be a positive experience. For many young women, it may be one of the first times they make an important or life-changing decision on their own, and they may feel more confident and better about themselves as a result.”

K Kaufmann. The Abortion Resource Handbook (New York: Simon & Schuster, 1997)

Clinic Workers Display “Cultural and Religious Ambivalence”

eight week-old unborn baby – most abortions are done at this stage or later

From one clinic worker:

“… workers in abortion clinics are often not pro-choice activists or “radicals.” Although most workers in these settings are committed to women’s access to legal and safe abortions, the cultural and religious ambivalence that surrounds abortion is also reflected in our daily struggles with the nature of our jobs.”

Clinic Worker: 20 Week Abortion “Turns My Stomach”

The Director of nursing at one abortion clinic said the following:

20 weeks

“I feel that up to 20 weeks you really push an abortion. Personally. And if they had modified that law I would be all for it. Because after that stage they’re getting pretty big. I mean, have you seen the 20 week ones? And I must say, it turns my stomach, and I agree with the staff in one way that they feel little repulsed when you get a big fetus. It’s very traumatic for the staff to pick this up and put it in a container and say, “Okay, that’s going to the incinerator.”

German Company that Manufactured Poison Gas in Holocaust Obtains Patent

The National Catholic Reporter said the following about RU-486:

“[RU-486] reminds politicians and the chemical industry in Germany of their special historical and moral responsibility to such a topic. Among other things is certainly resurrected shadow of the German past when the Hoechst Company, a successor enterprise IG Farben [the German company that patented the poison gas Zyklon B used in the gas chambers during World War II] obtained the patent RU-486.”

Cardinal Joachim Meisner of Cologne

“Abortion Gets Abused” Says Abortion Provider

16 week twins – legal to abort in every state

From one abortion provider:

“… I think from a straight moral point of view I probably would object to abortion. Because I love kids. From that point of view every fetus is a potential child, and morally I just really don’t think that should be done. Socially there’s a great need for abortion, purely because there’s a large group of women who for various reasons will get pregnant and they don’t want a child.… Of course, there’s abortion that gets abused. Women who come back three, four, and five times. This is another one of the boundaries a place in my own personal feelings. I would just not do it, I would probably refuse to do the abortion after two.”

If abortion is simply the removal of some cells, the termination of a pregnancy, and is morally benign, why should having more than one disturb a doctor?

Doctor Changes His Mind “As a Result of All This Technology”

One abortion doctor discussed how the advent of technology showing the unborn baby led him to change his mind about doing abortions:

“As a result of all this technology – looking at this baby, examining it, investigating it, watching its metabolic functions, watching and urinate [and] swallow… I was a physician pledged to save my patients’ lives, not to destroy them.. So I changed my mind on the subject of abortion.”
