Help for Those Forced or Coerced into Having an Abortion

[PJSmith]

I posted this on another thread but thought it would be helpful to add it to introductions.

We (Fr. Frank Pavone, Victoria Gisondi and myself) are from Priests for Life, Rachel’s Vineyard and Silent No More. We are pro life workers who recognize the lasting damage abortion has on women, but especially forced abortion. Priests for Life/ Silent No More/ Rachel’s Vineyard are part of an international ministry that offers healing after abortion for men and women through activism and through healing retreats.

www.priestsforlife.org www.rachelsvineyard.org www.silentnomore.com

We are interested in offering healing and would like your help on the best way to reach them. If you know someone that needs help, please share the websites or contact me via private message.

Also, our organizations have a wide enough platform where we could mobilize the public. We also have various access to media outlets and could continue to broadcast and interview victims of Scientology.

We recognize that not everybody shares our convictions about abortion so we come, not as proselytizers, but as friends offering help and resources for those who choose it. Besides our desire to help any families who been victimized by forced abortions , we also share a commitment to help expose human rights violations and abuses committed by church of Scientology.

Thanks again for your offer of help.

Just wondering if you're aware of other organizations besides Scientology, particularly organizations claiming to be religious, that force or coerce woman to have abortions?

(anyone who might have knowledge about this please post it)

In my country some physicians spoke out about an issue they now encounter (medical infanticide)

since they encounter more often women who are forced to get abortions when the ultrasound scanning shows the female sex of the foetus...
These situations happens with migrants coming from * societies where girls are not valued equally to male, but seen as a liability that one must dispose of quietly either with or without sorrow.
(this is why, the feminist activists, that may be so detested in occidental countries, are necessary, since, womenare, on a large part of the planet, less valued than the a dog who is more useful- (they are something expected to deliver plenty of male babies, but, when old, will be discarded.


They (doctors) questionned if it would be better to pass a law against foetus sex telling...

*societies does not refers to religions here, neither races...it refers to either some patriarcal male dominant cultures, cast societies, indigenous or sophisticated, in specific countries or part of specific countries

One of the biggest impediments to holding Scientology to task for its human rights violations has been the reluctance of organized religions to criticize another religion.
Conservative Judaism, I believe, has taken a position that is critical of Scientology but the default setting of most religious denominations is ecumenism, which Scientology very cynically exploits.

Please enlighten those organizations with which you are in contact that Scientology has repeatedly been accused of coercing its members to undergo abortions, and is a non-Christian "church" that places unquestioning obedience to its leader above family unity, and it has bankrupted many people.

The ex-Scientology community represents a diverse group, however we are united in opposition to Scientology's despicable behavior, the worst and most vicious being the forced abortions of sea org members.

One big example is China:
How China's One-Child Policy Led To Forced Abortions, 30 Million Bachelors

In China, you have women having to have checkups every three months. The real reason is to verify they aren't pregnant.

It's even more severe there than in the Sea Org. My opinion is that it was done for the same reason: short term productivity. With women not having children, then they can participate in the work force, thus increasing the percent of the population contributing to China's rapid industrialization. Similarly, in Scientology, not having kids means the women can work all day on staff, and public can donate all their money to Scientology without the distraction of having to support their children.

You are able to have more than one child, if you pay a fine. This means that the people who are wealthy enough to afford the fine can have more kids than the poor.

The problem is that China's population is now rapidly aging. What happens when there are too many people too old to work, and not enough workers? Well, there's always euthanasia ...

Simples. A One-Parent policy.

As I understand it, the One Child Policy has been lifted, but it has become a cultural norm to have only one child.
