Abortion is a legitimate genocide, - Hierarch of the Greek Church

"Our society sheds crocodile tears for children who drowned or died of starvation, but defends the right to kill them before they come to the world. Where are the hypocritical advocates of human rights? Unborn but living children do not even have such rights as cats and dogs? And all this is seen as progressiveness?

What kind of father and mother will have the right to demand respect and love from their children when latter learn that they live due to luck and not to their parents' love – because they are lucky to be born first or second, and if they were conceived the third or fourth, their "respectable parents" would shatter their heads?

A society based on injustice and inhumanity is degrading.

We are threatened not so much by external enemies. Enemies are among us. They live in many houses, are at the parliamentary tribune, in hospitals and maternity homes, those who legitimize the right to kill unborn children and those who enjoy this right. The real enemies of the Fatherland and truly inhuman are those who treat their own children worse than animals.

Perhaps, many will find my words hard and challenging. Yes, that's exactly what I wanted: it's a provocation to hardness of all those who are responsible for the modern genocide of abortions," stressed Vladyka.
