Abortion is more or less of a crime depending upon population pressure?

The value of a little unborn person is absolute, not relative.

I agree, the value of a person is absolute, without regard to population pressure. As such, I would be very happy to see additional restrictions put on abortion, regardless of what lawmakers' motivations might be. Eventually, of course, I pray that they will outlaw abortion altogether, for it is nothing short of cold blooded murder.

We are in crisis.

We want to stop genocide, because it is not convenient for us.

We do not want to stop infanticide, because it is convenient for us.

We have no standing in the High Court of the universe, unless we repent, because we have innocent blood on our hands.

Abortion is as you say, cold blooded murder, in flagrant violation of the natural, moral and divine law.

Legal abortion is not the initiative of the people, but of evil invested interests, related to unprincipled scientific experimentation, vaccine and cosmetic production, population reduction and worse.

Changing the law, to protect little, unborn babies, will require removal of evil people from positions of power.

This will require divine help, possibly even divine intervention.

This good deed is entrusted to nurses, who are daily accomplices in the crime of killing babies. So, perhaps it should be entrusted to someone else!

In OZ (Australia), THREE anti-abortion, religious hospitals have now been forcefully taken over by the government, without explanation. Those concerned, are having to fight the takeovers, with little apparent hope of success. OZ and the US, both now have bills tabled to allow the murder of healthy babies born, who are unwanted for whatever reasons. (This seems unbelievable. However, the father who was supreme in early Roman law, could reject a baby for whatever reasons. The baby died of neglect, or was abandoned, to be devoured by wild animals.)

I deeply regret this tragic, heartbreaking input. However, I think we should all be informed of the facts, so we can act as we see fit.

I sincerely apologize to all readers. I misread/misunderstood some initial input from OZ. Please note the following clarification.

Legislation has been passed by the ACT (Australian Capital Territory) government to take control of only ONE religious hospital to date - Calvary (Catholic) in Canberra, the National capital of OZ - supposedly due to its problematic stance on abortion and euthanasia. The legislation is being challenged. The exact status of the hospital ATM appears to be unclear. This is causing great concern to other religious hospitals, for obvious reasons. Clearly the intent may be, to force hospitals to conform, or face possible takeovers.

Christian schools are facing the same agenda. Teach government approved "values", regarding human life, gender definition, sexuality, etcetera, or face possible de-registration. Many churches have already surrendered critical moral ground, in response to government pressure, not force. Some churches, willingly fully support the "new morality", unfortunately.

In OZ as in the US, this agenda is not coming from the majority of the people, but being imposed from the top down, to benefit an unrepresentative minority.

Live-born babies are protected by law ATM, even if unwanted, for instance after a failed pregnancy termination. We can only hope and pray, that they will continue to be protected. And that unborn babies will be protected too. There are some promising initiatives, by caring committed people, who need our prayers and support.
