Counting the Cost of Choice

One might think that the unfortunates cared for by Mother Teresa in her lifetime would have been better off if they had not been born. Even so, despite seeing their sufferings at first-hand, and ministering to their needs, she remained pro-life and pro-women.

One of the quotes associated with her is:
“Abortion kills twice. It kills the body of the baby and it kills the conscience of the mother. Abortion is profoundly anti-woman.”

It is not difficult, for me, to hold and share that view. The cult of selfishness and death that surrounds the social movement pushing for liberalised abortion laws appals and sickens me more & more.
