I’ve been a member of this site for less than a week and I find it very interesting, I’m more of a reader/viewer than an active participant however so I thought I would offer a topic that may invigorate some.

Here in the UK this week, there has been something of an outrage, mainly amongst feminists and equality-advocates it would seem on the evil issue of abortion, but specifically because of it’s gender-basis. Reports show that ‘communities’ (I read that, rightly or wrongly as code for Muslims) are far more likely to have an abortion if their early screening shows their baby is going to be a girl.

Whilst I’m disgusted with any abortion, for a moment I saw this as an opportunity to say to those who are appalled that people would wish to discriminate between male and female in the ultimate fashion (murder) that life itself is what is so important, and if they have such a problem with abortion on a gender basis, should they not reconsider their position on abortion all together—because sadly, I fear those who are ‘outraged’ also support abortion to some extent. The outrage seems to stem entirely on the fact that baby girls are being terminated rather than human life. I wondered what people thought we could do to maybe ‘use’ this situation to the pro-life’s advantage.
 
The pro-abortion feminist movement is a political ideology with its sole purpose being, like is always the case with politics - power. Same goes for right-wing anti-abortion political movement who also have their own agenda that marches all through hypocrisy as easy as the feminists.
These movements even if they seem to touch on Christian values, even if they produce laws that may protect Christian values are about power, are not with Christ, are not from God.
 
There are some states in the US where abortion based on gender selection is against the law.


These laws have also been struck down by higher courts:


I have found that pro-choice people who find such selective abortions to be abhorrent, that is a good conversation starter. We need to understand that virtually no person is completely “pro abortion at any time for any reason” and by the same token, there are very few who are “anti-abortion at any time for any reason”, most of the pro-life people are okay with loopholes.
 
This is what is so irrational about pro-abortion views.

The right to have access to abortion is promoted as women’s rights yet in many parts of the world, the right to life for female babies are denied via abortion.

Female babies who will eventually grow up to be women are the chief victims of abortion. Abortion as women’s rights? Doesn’t make sense.

Muslim societies do not as a rule abort female babies.

Hindus and Confucian societies do.
