Proof that dogma is evil
March 5, 2009 at 6:25 pm
The BBC Wrote:A Brazilian archbishop says all those who helped a child rape victim secure an abortion are to be excommunicated from the Catholic Church.
I know people have different views on abortion (I don't think anyone is fond of it, despite the pro lifers claims). In this case though;
The girl was 9
The girl was an abuse victim
She was carrying twins
Her life has been destroyed enough and now the Catholic church are putting her and her family through this. It scares me people will commit such evil acts in the name of religious dogma..
Grrr.
Happiness is all that's important. What makes me happiest is making my loved ones happy.

No God worth worshipping could even consider the abortion of a pregnant 9 year old a "sin". If it did, all it has done has created beings that exceed it morally.

I'm not a doctor but I'm pretty sure it's dangerous for a girl that age to bear one child let alone two. Emotionally, her step dad's stolen a huge amount of her childhood; should a 9 year old be expected to loose out on the rest by being a mum to twins?
Her age is hugely important to this; she's a child not an adult. Religious condemnation and social ostacisation for a rape victim who aborts is not something I would deem acceptable for an adult, let alone some one who is still be playing with dolls.
Happiness is all that's important. What makes me happiest is making my loved ones happy.

I read that a few days ago and I am seriously disgusted. All the catholic church is saying that the lives of the twin babies are more important then the life of the mother. It's so sick.
