Ireland to Begin Legal Abortions January 7
Breitbart ^ | 1/5/19 | Dr. Susan Berry

Posted on 01/06/2019 6:59:36 AM PST by marshmallow

The Irish Family Planning Association (IFPA) has confirmed it will begin performing abortions in Ireland on January 7.

Abortion officially became legal in the Republic of Ireland on December 20, when President Michael D. Higgins signed new legislation into law.

In May, a campaign to save the country’s Eighth Amendment – which banned abortion – overwhelmingly lost in a referendum vote.

A pro-abortion rights campaign revealed by DCLeaks.com in 2017 to have been funded, in part, by billionaire investor George Soros and his Open Society Foundation proved successful as referendum exit polls suggested many voters relied on the abortion industry and left-wing media for their information about abortion.

LifeSiteNews reported on the Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy Bill that was rushed into law in December:

The new Irish abortion regime, which is in many ways even more extreme than the law in the UK, allows abortion on demand up until 12 weeks. As this analysis of the bill explains, a baby can also be aborted until viability (around 6 months) where there is a risk to the life, or of serious harm to the health, of the woman. The risk of “serious harm” to health is not defined, and is open to interpretation. Health as used here includes both physical and mental health. In the UK, the vast majority of abortions are carried out under the same mental health ground.

Ireland should change its national color from green to red.

If some kind of famine happens, people will be more likely to do that.

So, has there been a lot of extra sex in the last 12 weeks, so the abortion proponents will be ready to get one tomorrow?

Disgusting.

Soros’s plan is to kill off the children, then bring in third world immigrants because the country needs workers. Another step closer to a borderless world. He sees the world as a game board. Tear down prosperous, stable countries, using nefarious tactics like abortion, and bring in masses from weaker countries. His goal is for the game board to be fully mixed, with no borders. Their is nothing he won’t do to reach his goal,

I think when George leaves this world and opens his eyes in the afterlife the first words out of his mouth will be “It sucks to be me”.

I’ve been following this story in the Irish press for two years.

It’s not really all that surprising that the referendum won, But what surprised me was the evangelical fervor around it.

First, getting the referendum approved in the Legislature was some kind of emergency. Everything else had to be stopped so that the Bill to allow the referendum could move.

Then, the referendum couldn’t come fast enough.

When it passed, the streets were filled with delirious throngs celebrating the victory.

Then, there was the chance that some doctors, or the nuns who run most hospitals, wouldn’t go along. Or that there weren’t enough OB=GYN MDs to meet the need.

So the medical society agreed participation should be required, and GPs should learn to do the abortions.

This has moved with a speed, and an intensity, that I would not have believed possible.

The open lust of Irish women to begin killing their babies is a fearsome thing to see, as is the position of the government and all major parties that any Irish birth deficit will be made up by the “new Irish”, from Somalia and Afghanistan.

The whole thing is very, very disturbing.

It's a great cultural revolution.

They've been f***ing their brains out for the last 30 years.

Ireland is no different than the rest of the West. Neo pagan earth and celebrity worship, hedonism and decadence has supplanted the influence that religion once had. In Ireland the loss of faith and the turn to darkness was accelerated by the homosexual corruption within the Catholic Church which was once a rallying beacon for a fervent people. Face it. Western culture is in transformation. Its happened before and if history is a reliable guide, the ultimate outcome will not be pretty.

Ireland has been overrun by Satan. Are there no Christians left there?
