Abortion
Nearly a third of pregnancies in Europe end in abortion so that the birth rate in Europe is so low they cannot sustain their society. Their government has since started an open door policy to bring in immigrants to replace the portion of their population they chose to abort. This policy is allowing large numbers of violent abusive criminal elements to enter their society. Many of these immigrants are now changing the culture of Europe. Europeans are now in as much danger as the children in their daughter's wombs.
So that makes me wonder what is coming to America?
The abortion rate in America has not been 30% of the live births since 1994 but there is still 210 abortions for every 1000 births. This may not be the result of anything more than better contraception and pregnancy prevention, or possibly in part due to lower sperm count which has become increasingly apparent.
The rate of abortion in society is a symptom of a deeper problem. Socialism often breeds a lower birth rate.
Almost every person who is pro choice is willing to force other people to pay for their abortion and about everything else they want. You are not pro choice if you are a Socialist.
There are many ways in which a legal system increases its limited authority, but it is most complete through the consent of the individual. In China, they have “the one child contract”. If you sign it, you will become eligible for many of the benefits offered by the government, such as free medical care, schooling, and better paying jobs. If later the mother becomes pregnant and refuses to abort the child, the family becomes responsible for paying back all the benefits they received for the first child, and often suffer the loss of their present employed position and pay scale. In America, the pressure to abort a child is often much more subtle.
“The same dealt subtly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children [fetus],[1] to the end they might not live.”[2] (Acts 7:19)
If children survive the financial and social pressure to be aborted, they must still overcome the strain of the mental and spiritual pressures society shall place upon them. Unfortunately, society as a whole is continuously degrading the family as a unit, even though the family is the foundation from which the society is built.
“If we want better people to make a better world, then we will have to begin where people are made in the family.”[3]
Economic pressures may burden and exhaust the parents. Social Security often removes the grandparents from the family unit. School systems distance the parents from the mental development of the children as they are molded outside the family unit. The media and socially applied peer pressures add their own unique and varied distortions to the child’s development.
“When the foundation fails all fails.”[4]
The few parents who feel a sense of responsibility to raise their children directly, often find their way blocked by a legal system that seems to be usurping the authority of the parents by assuming custody of children in the name of “The Law”. Yet, is it usurpation or have we unwittingly waived custody of our children by some previous legal contract or consensual agreement?
The right to choose
Right to choose should include the right to decide whose abortion you should have to pay for. People who say they are pro choice almost always believe they have the right to force others to pay for their abortion.
Europe vs. America
Published on May 23, 2016 Are abortion laws more conservative in America or in Western Europe? Would a pregnant woman seeking an abortion have an easier time getting one in Texas or in...Germany? The answers, as talk show host Elisha Krauss explains, may just change how you think about America's abortion laws.
