Regan King looks at the abc's of abortion over the past 50 years and dedicates this to the memory of the 9 million and more babies who have been aborted since 1967.
27 April marks 50 years since the Abortion Act (1967) began to be implemented. It is a sad day in our nation’s life. Here are my thoughts in commemoration of the lives lost in that time.
50 years of accessible abortion
50 years of belittling the lives of pre-born children
50 years of commodifying women and children
50 years of discriminating against thedisabled
50 years of exploiting women and excusing abortion as a ‘choice’ and a ‘woman’s right’
50 years of failing the most vulnerable in our society
50 years of gross malpractice in abortion clinics throughout Britain
50 years of harming women
50 years ofignoring evidence that abortion does harm women
50 years of justifying the unjustifiable
50 years of killing
50 years of lying to womenthat abortion is a good thing
50 years of marching and mourning for our nation’s lost children
50 years – nine million and more babies aborted.
50 years of obfuscating about abortion’s practice
50 years of potential leaders, inventors, cancer researchers, and good citizens snuffed out
50 years of quelling the words of those who dare speak out
50 years of reviling those who love life more than death
50 years of selfishness leading to shame and sadness
50 years of tears
50 years of unabashed abuse
50 years ofviolence disguised asvirtue
50 years of waste and wrong
50 years of xenophobia – hating babies as alien, foreign clumps of cells.
50 years ofyouth destroyed
50 years of zoning out from the truth – abortion kills and doesn’t heal.
To the 9 million and more lives lost through abortion. We miss you. We mourn for you. We march for you. We continue to speak for you.
