ABORTION ON DEMAND
We are concerned that,
while the constitution grants rights to every individual, the rights of the
unborn are being ignored.
The viewpoint that we hold (we believe this to
be the Biblical Viewpoint) is that life begins at conception & that this
life is
given by God. It is within this framework that we strongly oppose
legislation granting abortion on demand. The law already makes
provision for
abortion in certain situations. The impact of allowing abortion on demand would
be far-reaching, causing a nation
to bear the guilt of innocent blood being
shed. It would also have the effect of diminishing the value placed on human
life at a
time when we as a nation are finally realising that all people have
equal value before God.
We trust that this concern will receive your
close attention.
Yours sincerely
