The Polish Church has dismissed the threat
A Polish church spokesman dismissed a threat of European Union sanctions if his countrys parliament goes ahead with church-backed legislation to curb abortions of handicapped fetuses.
The Polish bishops conference underlines that the right to life is fundamental to every human being, so we should all protect this right for defenseless children, said Father Pawel Rytel-Andrianik, conference spokesman. Nobody can take this right away, nor can external or internal pressures change the scientifically proved fact that human life begins at the moment of conception.
The European Parliament said it would demand EU action if legislators went ahead with new restrictions, which were backed by 830,000 Poles in a petition introduced Nov. 30 before the Sejm, the Polish parliaments lower house.
In a December 8 interview with Catholic News Service, Father Rytel-Andrianik said it would be difficult to judge in advance the impact of EU threats, which have been criticized as interference by some politicians in the traditionally Catholic country.
Research has shown how children develop before birth, so this isnt a matter just of religion, but of science, too, said Father Rytel-Andrianik.
The resolution said members of the European Parliament would invoke Article 7 a European Union treaty to demand Polands suspension from the intergovernmental European Council, if it went ahead with controversial judicial and media reforms, as well as with banning abortions because of fetal impairment.

Liberals do not react well to dissent.
Sometimes I feel like the world has gotten to ridiculous to go on living.
Polish people are known to be very stubborn, and while frustrating at times, what a wonderful character trait in this instance. Go Poland
They need to get used to it. 👍
If you won't kill your babies for cash, I will.
Looks like the Krauts are trying to push the Poles into the arms of the Russkis.
