Child in the Womb
- Protecting the unborn in Ireland -
A child in the womb is a person,
not merely an organism.
Let your voice be heard and help prevent
the legalization of abortion in Ireland.
You can do so by printing off copies of the
leaflet below and distributing them
in your local community.
Unless people who are normally 'quiet' or 'reserved'
start raising their voices, the killing of children in the
womb is likely to be legalized in Ireland.
Abortion is not just a ‘personal’ matter,
as supporters of abortion often allege,
but a profoundly moral one.
Even a child can see that killing children is wrong.
We hope you have the courage to speak out,
but please do so NOW, because if the
Eighth Amendment is repealed,
your loudly voiced objections
thereafter will achieve
absolutely nothing.

"Just as you don't know the
path of the wind, or how
bones develop in the womb
of a pregnant woman, so you
don't know the work of God
who makes everything."
- Ecclesiastes 11:5
In many countries it
would have been
legal to kill both of
these twins a few
weeks before this
photo was taken.
Iceland, Denmark and
other countries are now
killing all unborn
children diagnosed with
Down syndrome.
If the 8th Amendment
is repealed, it won’t
be long before Ireland
is doing the same.
These two children are among the last
Down syndrome babies born in Iceland.
Liberal Lament
How much better my life would have been
had I killed my son;
but I waited too long.
Now he's playing in the garden
with his friends
and having so much fun.
How much better
my life would have been
had I killed my son.
- Innocent Blood -
Twelve simple questions for anyone who plans to
vote in favour of repealing the 8th Amendment
If
you
intend
to
vote
in
favour
of
repealing
the
8
th
Amendment,
you
will
be
approving
a
law
to
kill
a
certain
category
of
person.
That
alone
should
make
you
think
very
carefully
about
what
you
are
about
to
do.
Like
it
or
not,
you
are
morally
accountable
for
your
actions.
So,
if
you
have
decided
to
vote
in
favour
of
legalizing
abortion,
you
need
to
be
certain
that
you
will
not
be
implicated
in
some
manner
in
the
killing
of
innocent
unborn
children.
(Please
bear
in
mind
that
a
child
conceived
by
rape
is
innocent.)
We
are
not
talking
about
tax
laws
or
marriage
laws
or
immigration
laws.
We
are
talking
about
the
'termination'
of
unborn
children.
It
is
doubtful
whether
you
will
ever
again
be
asked
to
make
a
decision
which
has
such
devastating
implications
for
two
other
groups
of
people
–
the
unborn
and
their mothers.
So,
if
you
have
already
decided
to
vote
in
favour
of
legalizing
abortion,
you
should
be
able
to
answer
each
of
the
following
with
an
unqualified Yes:
1.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
Ireland
may
very
shortly
get
into
step
with
other
jurisdictions
where
it
is
lawful
to
'terminate'
an
unborn
child
with
Down
syndrome
right
up
to
the
time
of birth -
…..YES / NO
(circle one)
[Iceland boasts that it has 'solved' the problem of Down syndrome.
How? Simply by killing all unborn children with the condition.]
2.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
'termination'
of
a
child
who,
at
twelve
weeks'
gestation,
is
perfectly
formed,
has
a
beating
heart,
and
who
fights
furiously
in
his
mother's
womb
to
prevent
the
surgeon
from
killing him
…..YES / NO
[This can be seen on an ultrasound scanner.]
3.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
a
jurisdiction
which
legalizes
the
killing
of
one
group
of
innocent
people
can
just
as
easily
use
the
same
moral
argument
to
kill
another
group
of
innocent
people
(such
as
'defective'
newborns,
the
bedridden
elderly,
or
the
physically
and mentally impaired)
…..YES / NO
[Younger
adults
who
vote
in
favour
of
repeal
may
find,
fifty
years
from
now,
that
they
are
facing
'termination'
themselves
because
the
total cost of their care in a nursing home exceeds a legal threshold.]
4.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
many
young
mothers
will
grieve
in
silence
for
the
rest
of
their
lives
over
the
son
or
daughter
whose tiny life they 'terminated'
…..YES / NO
[Many
women
feel
the
full
emotional
impact
of
their
tragic
mistake
when
they
give
birth
to
their
'first'
child
and
realize
that
he
or
she
was really their second.]
5.
I
am
completely
comfortable
when
a
pregnant
woman
refers
to
her
unborn
child
simply
as
a
"foetus"
because
she
plans
to
have
an
abortion
…..YES / NO
[This
highlights
the
stark
moral
contradiction
in
the
'pro-choice'
position,
where
the
unborn
whom
one
plans
to
keep
is
a
child
but
the unborn whom one plans to kill is a bundle of cells.]
6.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that,
if
abortion
is
legalized,
some
of
my
own
descendants
–
my
own
flesh
and
blood
–
will be 'terminated'
…..YES / NO
7. I am completely comfortable with the fact that billionaire humanists
and atheists, like George Soros, and sundry others who despise the
Bible, have helped to fund the pro-abortion lobby in Ireland
…..YES / NO
8.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
most
of
the
groups
who
lobbied
for
abortion
in
Ireland
are
atheists,
radical
feminists,
Marxists,
humanists
or
pagans
(at
least
one
member
of
the
Government)
…..YES / NO
[By
and
large
these
various
categories
support
the
morality
of
the
New World Order which utterly rejects traditional Christian values.]
9.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
RTE,
TV3,
The
Irish
Times
,
and
The
Irish
Independent
are
intensely
biased
against
the
pro-
life
lobby
and
have
repeatedly
misrepresented
their
position
and
suppressed information that would reveal the true tragedy of abortion
…..YES / NO
[The
tragedy
concerns,
not
just
the
children
who
are
terminated,
but
the
mothers
who
have
been
tricked
into
believing
that,
by
killing
their unborn child, their lives will improve.]
10.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
the
adoption
of
'unwanted'
children
was
never
given
the
least
consideration
by
the
Government,
the
media,
the
pro-choice
lobby,
or
vocal
supporters
of
the Marxist/Humanist agenda
…..YES / NO
[The
crass
hypocrisy
of
the
government's
position
ought
to
be
evident.
For
social
or
economic
convenience
an
unborn
child
will
be
killed.
Thousands
of
prospective
adoptive
couples
would
gladly
give
a
loving
home
to
the
child,
but
our
'leaders'
would
prefer
if
he
or
she
were 'terminated.' This is a sign of a sick society.]
11.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
fact
that
both
the
Citizens
Assembly
(which
supposedly
considered
alternatives
to
abortion)
and
the
Dáil
Committee
on
abortion
(which
was
supposed
to
be
impartial)
were cynically designed to give the Government the outcome it wanted
…..YES / NO
[Only
3
of
the
25
witnesses
heard
by
the
Dáil
Committee
were
pro-
life.
Furthermore,
the
Government's
claim
that
the
Citizens
Assembly
was representative of the population as a whole is simply false.]
12.
I
am
completely
comfortable
with
the
killing
of
unborn
children
conceived
by
rape
or
those
whose
physical
condition
is
deemed
by
doctors to be such that they will not survive birth
…..YES / NO
[These
are
the
two
'trick'
questions
posed
by
atheists
and
humanists.
They
sneakily
imply
that
the
unborn
child
in
these
cases
is
not
a
child
at
all
but
merely
a
bundle
of
cells.
A
child
conceived
by
rape
is
as
human
as
any
other
child,
while
a
child
who
suffers
from
serious
health
problems
deserves
to
receive
optimum
medical
care,
whether
inside
or
outside
the
womb.
We
don't
'terminate'
seriously
ill infants. ]
You
should
have
answered
'Yes'
to
all
12.
If
you
didn't
then
there's
a
problem, and you know it.
Now
ask
yourself,
is
there
really
anything
wrong
with
a
Constitutional
provision
that
guarantees
equal
rights
to
both
the
mother
and
her
child?
Remember,
once
it's
removed,
the
killing
will
start,
and
as
time
passes
it
will only get worse. Why pretend that this will not be the case?
You
don't
have
to
be
a
Christian
to
see
that
killing
children
is
wrong.
Just
because
abortion
is
conducted
in
secret
and
the
bloody
mess
is
hidden
from
public
view
does
not
make
it
any
less
abhorrent.
We
live
in
a
society
today
where
people
get
upset
if
an
animal
is
maltreated,
but
will
vote
in
favour
of
a
law
to
facilitate
the
killing
of
unborn
children
–
who
are,
in
every
sense
of
the
term,
"innocent
blood."
We
truly
hope
you
are
not one of those people.
This
questionnaire
was
drawn
up
and
distributed
by
concerned
Christians
who
believe
the
people
of
Ireland
are
being
led
blindly
–
by
amoral
humanist
politicians
and
a
corrupt
media
–
into
the
greatest
spiritual
catastrophe
of
our
time.
We
hope
it
will
help
the
electorate
to
focus
clearly
on
the
gravity
of
what
they
are
about
to
do.
We
are
all
morally
accountable.
Atheists
may
sneer,
but
we
will
all
stand
before
God
one
day
and face His righteous judgment:
"Rescue
those
who
are
being
taken
away
to
death;
hold
back
those
who
are
stumbling
to
the
slaughter.
If
you
say,
"Behold,
we
did
not
know
this,"
does
not
He
who
weighs
the
heart
perceive
it?
Does
not
He
who
keeps
watch
over
your
soul
know
it,
and
will
He not repay man according to his work?"

and,
with
due

to
the

of

guarantees
in
its

to
respect,
and,
as
far
as

by
its
