A few quotes...

We tell ourselves that the debate about access to abortion is the same as improving waiting times for hip replacement surgery. Society has done a masterful job of selling abortion as a human rights issue. But society ignores that framing the issue of abortion as a freedom issue is done at the expense of another human being's existence. - Father Geoff Kerslake

"The cutting out of a human life from the embrace of its mother's womb is a violent act, one that kills the baby and deeply wounds the mother" - Colin Mason Population Research Institute

There is a big difference between the choice to have a child and the choice to kill a child. Because abortion kills a child who already exists, it is in no way a "right." - Father Frank Pavone

“Forty years ago we were told that backstreet abortions were killing women and had to be decriminalised. We were told abortion would only be used in extreme cases. We were told medical scrutiny would be rigorous. We were told a pack of lies – lies and misinformation masquerading as compassion and truth,” - Scottish Cardinal Keith O'Brien

"Nitschke doesn't seem to worry much about whether his clients are depressed or demoralised or socially isolated or lonely. It's not part of the job description of internet suicide providers. They just fill orders, more like warehouse clerks than Marcus Welby, MD." - Michael Cook of Mercator.net on Australian Euthanasia Advocate Philip Nitschke

“How can the dream survive if we murder the children? - Dr. Alveda King

Our government also believe that more sex education is the key to reducing teenage pregnancy as indicated by the recommendations of the latest Parliamentary Health Committee’s report to Parliament on teenage pregnancy. We encourage website visitors to examine these recommendations and compare them to the findings of a United Nations report on British Sex education and the road down which NZ is following. Please follow the sex education link above for details - RTLNZ

Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. . . . the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child, a direct killing of the innocent child . . . The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts -a child- as a competitor, an intrusion and an inconvenience - Quotes by Mother Teresa of Calcutta

In Canada it is legal to kill a healthy boy or girl within seconds before birth. There are no laws to protect against abortion at any stage of pregnancy. In the face of all opposition, we should steadfastly resist the persistent attempts by benighted MPs and rogue judges to impose euthanasia on the sick, the elderly and the handicapped. Come what may, we should never give up the struggle to combat the mass slaughter of babies in the womb. In our time and place, we should resolve to go on witnessing to the truth, for all times and places, that every human life is sacred from conception to natural death. - Rory Leishman, London Free Press

Are the Greens serious about stopping child abuse?
2003: P (Methamphetamine) reclassified as a Class A drug – only the Greens opposed
2006: Opposed an increase to the Drinking Age
2005: Intentional Possession of Child Pornography (the worst of child abuse) –Only the Greens opposed the maximum penalty being 5 years – wanted it lower at 2 years
2007: Want to decriminalise Marijuana
SOFT ON THE REAL CAUSES OF CHILD ABUSE YET THEY WANT TO CRIMINALISE PARENTS WHO GIVE THEIR KIDS A SMACK

"We have the entire Planned Parenthood (for NZ read Family Planning) mentality that says other human beings should be used for your own sexual pleasure, and if someone else is a burden to you, if they are unwanted, then simply eliminate them, abort them," - Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America “A nation which kills its children is a nation without a future. A continent which kills its children will be settled by people who do not kill theirs.”...“If we will not use all our power to strengthen the family, then as a continent there is not a future for us. We will be a continent settled by representatives of the Islamic world who care for the family.” - Roman Giertych, Poland's Deputy Prime Minister and Education minister

"It is almost inconceivable that the same country (the UK) that gave us the rule of law and limited government – and powerfully gifted Christian preachers like George Whitfield who helped shape America – now bows down to the homosexual revolution of organized sin masquerading as 'civil rights," - Peter LaBarbera

"...the contraceptive mentality causes abortion. When women and girls choose to sleep with men whose children they don’t want, they will take steps to ensure those children aren’t born. If contraception fails, they will abort. And because abortion is easily available, these women can be lax about using contraception, knowing there is a cheap and legal fall-back option. As long as women and men view sex as recreation and children as annoying consequences of fun time, the contraceptive mentality will produce a large demand for abortion. This isn’t just a theory; it is what has actually happened again and again in recent decades in country after country." - Joseph A. D'Agostino
