In the days following the centre’s opening, the Dator Clinic sent out several Tweets and retweets calling Refugio ProVida “an assault centre.” Some tweets also stated, “we cannot allow this” and “please do something.”
The birth of embryos once diagnosed as ‘abnormal’ shows how much remains to be understood about human development and genetics, as well as the unreliability of PGT-A tests.
Germany has a low overall abortion rate in relation to its population of 82.9 million. Yet the exact causes of the decline in the number of abortions are difficult to determine.
Recent abortion laws allow the moral supremacist to drive a dagger through the very notion that our rights, including the right to life, are given to us by God. Separating personhood—a legislative definition—from life has given government full jurisdiction over our rights.
The new law, which criminalises pro-life advocates who are caught within close proximity of abortion clinics, is expected to be immediately challenged in the country’s constitutional court. Legal experts assert its questionable legality and impossible prosecution.
Charging £85.00 for the virtual consultation and an added £475.00 for the pills themselves, the decision to make it permanently easier to kill unborn children by such means is a further boon to the Marie Stopes business model.
“What is proposed by Mr. Macron is the absolute abandonment of women and the elimination of a new member of our society that deserves our respect and protection,” the One of Us letter reads.

Before the final report from the Conference on the Future of Europe is published in the spring, the European Federation hopes to gather citizens from across the EU in Brussels and call for the protection of all human life, beginning at the moment of conception.
Government says that a person is not alive until deep into the pregnancy.

That moral value works as an ulterior motive for the legal definition of life.
Emmanuel Macron displayed his ambition to promote European civilization and its culture, through a “common project respectful of the singularities and identities of each [nation].” In the exchange with French deputies, he recalled that he has never been opposed to promoting the Christian roots of Europe.

“Every day, the government sent police officers to scare us [as we held peaceful prayer vigils outside abortion clinics],” reported the Madrid coordinator of 40 Days for Life.
Fear of nature will rule every meaningful decision regarding life and death. Viruses and climate change will justify continued social isolation and an increasingly totalitarian government.
