PP Opposes Regulation that make abortions safe

[mandym]

Planned Parenthood is mounting a campaign to combat state laws in Tennessee, Michigan, and Pennsylvania designed to protect the health of women.

At issue are controversial laws requiring abortion providers to have admitting privileges at local hospitals, which require providers to meet certain medical and professional standards.

Denise Burke, Vice President of Legal Affairs for Americans United for Life, pointed to evidence that suggests, “Women are receiving substandard care.”

“It is important to make sure that women receive safe, competent care on abortions,” she said.

Burke noted that 12 states require abortion providers to have admitting privileges at local hospitals. (Tennessee is set to become the 13th.) Twenty-eight states have “comprehensive regulations.”

The Tennessee law requiring abortion physicians to obtain “admitting privileges at a licensed hospital” in the county where the abortion is performed, or a county adjacent to it, will take effect July 1. The abortion doctor must let the patient know which hospital has granted privileges and where she can go if complications arise.

Planned Parenthood opposes the measure.

An abortion is always unsafe. Normally one person dies with each abortion.

Since Salty has raised the question of the origin of the soul. I have concluded that God creates a new soul at the time of birth.

So God doesn't know us until birth?

Only half of the people that enter an abortion ever come out of it alive.

If you're the opposite of pro-life, wouldn't that actually make you pro-death??

--Something to think about I'd say.

So are you saying it's okay to abort a child 1 minute before birth?

How about just after the child is born - but before cutting the umbilical cord?

Its interesting, a few weeks ago, a young man was arrested for destroying some swan eggs. Some wrote letters to the editor saying its the same as aborting. Others said it was apples and oranges - the "others" were correct - the swans would not have been people - only animals.

Interesting- upon which Scriptures do you base that conclusion?
