Individuals like Salus may wish to contemplate WHY many babies get aborted every year. Mario asks: Why do YOU think so many babies are killed every year, JC, when they could be given up for adoption? JC wrote: Perhaps, Salus will work hard to make Effective, good quality condoms available to the sexually active and/or organise the acceptance by society of ALL children whether they are born in wedlock or not and/or make available SAFE adoption facilities - putting in place safeguards to ensure that the adopted children do not get abused by the very folks who jump up and down about abortion. (I understand that this still will not take care of the female infanticide prevalent in India) Mario responds: Good quality latex condoms are only a part of any "solution". How these are used is the key part of having "safer" sex versus not using condoms at all. There is no such thing as "safe" sex. There are several Catholic and Protestant organizations who will help a woman with an unwanted pregnancy to try and save the baby's life. JC wrote: Finally, Salus may wish to advise young women what they are to do when they are raped by a parent. Though in the case of rape and incest, the only method available might be the 'morning after pill'. Mario asks: What would YOU advise these women, JC, given that the morning after pill is nothing but an immediate abortion soon after conception? Why would these pregnancies be treated any differently than any other unwanted pregnancy given that a human life is at stake?
