United Families International fully recognizes the value of life during all stages and promotes the protection of human life from conception until natural death. Human life begins at fertilization, when the sperm and ovum meet to form a single cell and begin the human growth process. Reverence for life — including that of the unborn — is an essential part of the basis for peace in the world and goodwill among nations, and is part of the fabric of successful and happy families. Defenseless preborn children are full members of the human family and deserve legal protection. We oppose abortion except in extremely rare cases when continuing a pregnancy threatens the life of the mother. In such cases, every attempt should be made to save the life of the baby as well. We oppose the practice of “partial-birth abortion,” which is a form of infanticide, and we oppose the legalization of the abortion drug RU-486. Every child is wanted by someone, and United Families International encourages adoption in cases where the mother is unable or unwilling to care for her child. Where abortion is legal, women should be fully informed with regard to the development of the baby, the potential physical and psychological risks of abortion and alternatives to abortion, such as adoption. We strongly support informed consent and parental consent provisions in public policy.
That’s great!
