That Australia should even come to the stage allowing abortion is totally tragic. But there's worse news. Abortion was only allowed in VIC for fetuses up to 22-23 weeks because after that, the fetus is legally a child 'capable of being born alive'. However, the VIC parliament is now planning to extend the time frame of abortion all the way until the birth of the baby!
If you have time, go to www.abortionno.org and have a look. It's an American website, but it brings out the horror of abortion- something that every woman should know. If they are going to stick to their "right to choose", they should at LEAST face up to what they are choosing! The site isn't just for women, but it for everyone. Christians or no. You MUST see what abortion is doing to our next generation... the millions of 'could have been'. There's all this talk on the injustice of the "stolen generation". And yes, it was unjust. But how much more the whole generation of babies wiped out merely because the parents finds it socially inconvenient to have one!
Parliament wants to talk law? Well, how about this: encouraging total wantonness and irresponsible behaviour goes against public policy. And that is what they will be encouraging if they allow women to abort babies simply because they find it too inconvenient to have a child. If they can't take care of the child, give it up for adoption! There are so many parents who would LOVE to have a child of their own but can't!
Justifying abortion by rape and women's health cases is just an excuse. The number of rape cases that resulted in abortion is 1%. Aborting the fetus because of health problems? 6%. the other 93% is ALL due to "social inconvenience"!
And then of course we come to rights. Women's rights to choose. yeah sure. Just make sure you know WHAT you are choosing. And then, how about the baby's rights? Don't THEY get a say too, while we're at it?
We've got to do something now. It's rather too late to act once the legislation has been amended.

Atheist professor rendered speechless
There was a professor of philosophy where who was a deeply committed atheist. His primary goal for one required class was to spend the entire semester attempting to prove that God couldn't exist. His students were always afraid to argue with Him because of his impeccable logic. For 20 years, he had taught this class and no one had ever had the courage to go against him. Sure, some had argued in class at times, but no one had ever 'really gone against him'
Nobody would go against him because he had a reputation. At the end of every semester, on the last day, he would say to his class of 300 sutdents, "Is there anyone here who believes in Jesus? Stand up!" In 20 years, no one had ever stood up. They knew what he was going to do next. He would say, "because anyone who does believe in God is a fool. If God existed, he could stop this piece of chalk from hitting the ground and breaking. Such a simple tast to prove that He is God, and yet He can't do it." And every year, he would drop the chalk onto the tile floor of the classroom and it would shatter into a hundred pieces. The students could do nothing but stop and stare. Most of the students were convinced that God couldn't exist. Certainly, a number of Christians had slipped through, but for 20 years, they had been too afraid to stand up.
Well, a few years ago, there was a freshman who happened to get enrolled in the class. He was a Christian, and had heard the stories about this professor. He had to take the class because it was one of the required classes for his major and he was afraid. But for 3 months that semester, he prayed every morning what the professor said or what the class thought. Nothing they said or did could ever shatter his faith, he hoped.
Finally teh day came. The professor said, "If there is anyone here who still believes in God, stand up!" The professor and the class of the 300 hundred people looked at him, shocked, as he stood up at the back of the classroom. The professor shouted, "You fool!! If God existed, he could keep this piece of chalk from breaking when it hit the ground!" He then proceeded to drop the chalk, but as he did, it slipped out of his fingers, off his shirt cuff, onto the pleats of his pants, down his leg, and off his shoe. As it hit the ground, it simply rolled away, unbroken.
The professor's jaw dropped as he stared at the chalk. He looked up at the young man and then ran out of the lecture hall. The young man who had stood up proceeded to walk to the front of the room and share his faith in Jesus Christ for teh next half hour. 300 students stayed and listened as he told of God's love for them and of His power through Jesus Christ.
-This is SAID to be a true story that happened in USC (University of Southern California). But it is circulated in the internet as being a 'legend'.-
