Amnesty International abandons Children

The Vatican is now urging Catholics to stop donating money to Amnesty International because of their support for abortion. For years Amnesty International has been moving towards accepting abortion as a basic right for women. And now they have changed their overall policy to support abortion in several instances:


"We are saying broadly that to criminalise women's management of their sexual reproductive right is the wrong answer," Amnesty's deputy Secretary General Kate Gilmore told Reuters news agency.

It's interesting that Ms. Gilmore didn't mention the need to protect unborn infants. I am constantly saddened by advocacy groups adopting abortion as if it was a great struggle they just can't ignore. Too bad for us and too bad for Amnesty International. I have given to them in the past, but will no more. We've written on the Amnesty International change in policy in the past.

God bless,
Jay
