Over 700 Unborn Babies Murdered Daily

The July 2010 Human Life International Mission Report had a very sad statistic in it. HlI's Joseph Meaney reports that the 10 Marie Stopes centers in the Ethiopian capital city of Addis Ababa alone do an average of 70 abortions a day.

But there is more. He also shared that he was told that young men harass women walking by the Marie Stopes center located next to the Catholic Cathedral. No, the young men are not pro-lifers being accused by the pro-aborts of harrassment. It is something bizarre. They are stopping them with offers of cheaper abortions done in the private offices of doctors. Yup, there are doctors who are openly competing to do the abortions.

& since it is almost certain that these doctors are getting some business, then it is certain that there are many more than 700 abortions done each day in Addis Abada. & that is only the capital city. The real number is impossible to ascertain since abortion is completely unregulated in Ethiopia.

As Joseph Meaney sais, this whole thing is diabolical. & the fact that Marie Stopes opened 1 of their clinics by the Catholic Cathederal shows how they are also trying to mock God as well.

Marie Stopes is also helping to push condoms to battle AIDS. There again the statistics are proving that condoms don't help. & that the Catholic Church is right when it insists on celebacy, not being sexually active, outside of marriage.

Joseph Meaney goes on to say "Ethiopia will soon pass the million person mark of HIV/AIDS sufferers. This makes it the 12th worst country in the world for the number of HIV/AIDS cases. Abstinence and fidelity are not even given lip-service in Ethiopia. Marie Stopes and DKT instead sponsor “condom cafés” where the friendly staff wear t-shirts, aprons and caps that promote condom use. They give free samples to their young clients.

As usual, the Catholic Church picks up the pieces after the culture of death spreads its destruction. It was incredibly moving to see the center for AIDS orphans run by Mother Teresa of Calcutta’s Missionaries of Charity. They have worked in Ethiopia since 1973, and over 400 children receive their loving care. Most of these kids are HIV positive, themselves. Their parents probably bought the lie that condoms would protect them against AIDS. Now, not only they, but their innocent children as well, are paying the price for this deception."

Sadly, what is going on in Ethiopia is not the exception but the rule when it comes to the "culture of death". Thank God groups like Human Life International are there on the frontlines battling. I am about to say it again, this battle will only be won on our knees. Financial support to HLI & other pro-life groups is very important. Being active in your local right to life group, supporting crisis pregnancy centers & being politically active are also important. But without prayer. . . I repeat, our efforts must begin, end & be undergirded with prayer. Jesus won the victory on the cross. The war will ultimately be won as a result. But, that doesn't excuse us to do nothing. It is our duty through prayer & action to fight the battles between now & the end of time.
