Abortion - viewed by Mother Teresa

[catharina]

A few quotes from the site:
mycatholicchurch.googlepages.com/prolifequotew-motherteresa

“We must not be surprised when we hear of murders, of killings, of wars, of hatred. If a mother can kill her own child, what is left but for us to kill each other.”
~ Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta ~

“Once that living love is destroyed by contraception, abortion follows very easily.”
~ Bl. Mother Teresa ~

“It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.”
~ Blessed Mother Teresa ~

“Abortion kills twice. It kills the body of the baby and it kills the conscience of the mother. Abortion is profoundly anti-women. Three quarters of its victims are women: Half the babies and all the mothers.”
~ Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta ~

 

[catharina]

“The greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion, which is war against the child. The mother doesn’t learn to love, but kills to solve her own problems. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want.”

 

[North_of_Nod]

I agree wholeheartedly. Medical science has confirmed that at 18 weeks, the fetus has developed a network of active pain receptors. It has been observed that the child recoils in pain from the instrument used to kill it during an abortion, in the same way that a born child would retract a foot/hand from a pinch. I don’t see how any sane parent could kill their child despite this knowledge (or even without this knowledge).

I don’t see how any sane parent could kill their child despite this knowledge (or even without this knowledge).

Well, I mean, with a lack of said knowledge, and don’t forget the lies they’re fed, it’s not so very hard to see.

“…Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want.”

I like that. Still, I’m not at all sure why barbarism isn’t more widely accepted. I mean, I suppose abortion is very probably the most violent act a person could commit. But I mean to say, one would imagine, in a society so accepting of abortion, day to day murder would be more acceptable. Bombings and shootings would be a celebrated occurrence!

Ah yes, and firemen would be prosecuted like murderers for saving people from death, and doctors called in to treat the healthy!
