Legalized abortion, no!

Legalized abortion, no!

From Republika

The Indonesian Reproduction Health Profile 2003, issued by the
Ministry of Health in cooperation with the World Health
Organization, shows an increase in abortion rates with a majority
of young people (15 years to 24 years) being involved in this
practice.

Meanwhile, this situation arouses greater concern as some
circles propose that abortion be permitted and protected by law.
Though abortion is now a crime and banned by all religions, they
want the government to allow it and provide necessary facilities.

Young people commit abortion because of free sex and bad
company. If abortion is legalized, they will not hesitate to have
extra-marital sex without fear or shamed of becoming pregnant.
Eventually, the younger generation's future will be ruined.

Legalizing abortion means making free sex part of our culture,
which will also ruin the future of the nation. Therefore, let us
join hands in rejecting and fighting all attempts to endorse
abortion.
