Bern (kath.net/KNA) In Liechtenstein abortion remains illegal even for the future. At a popular vote on Sunday about 52 percent of the 36,000 citizens voted against the legalization of pregnancy termination, 47.7 percent voted to allow abortion within the first twelve weeks.
In Liechtenstein, abortion is illegal is punishable with up to a year of confinement, if it is undertaken abroad.
Archprince Alois von Liechtenstein had shown himself to be explicitly against the initiative and promised to cast his veto and refused to sign it into law. The reason for his opposition lay in that the proposed form did not merely address fetuses in the first twelve weeks, but could allow for it in cases of handicapped children all the way up to the point of birth.
Even the goevrnment and parliament of Liechtenstein had spoken out against the text of the poll.
Various political parties proposed a further challenge in the text in the event that it were rewritten. Abortion is still punishable in any case, even if only, it is undertaken by Lietchtenstein.

The Prince of Liechtenstein Will Block Proposed Abortion Law
Prince Alois von Liechstenstein will reject the law for abortion in the first trimester himself, in case it is adopted by popular vote.
Vaduz (kath.net) Prince Alois von Liechtenstein will reject the law for abortion in the first trimester himself, in case it is adopted by popular vote. The Prince made this clear as part of his role as Liechtenstein's head of state in a speech at for the national holiday. The present bill under proposal will not come into effect. The proposed law foresees an allowance for early abortion in the first twelve weeks of pregnancy, and abortion may be allowed up to the moment of birth in cases where a fetus is handicapped. At present abortion is illegal in the Principality of Liechtenstein where about fifty female citizens of Liechtenstein have abortions abroad every year illegally.
The Liechtenstein National Assembly had defeated the controversial proposal at the end of June, while the plebiscite will follow in September. One of the grounds for the rejection of the bill is that it must be presented to the Prince first who has reservations which are in his words that "it is problematic that the proposal aims to abort children with disabilities". The Prince said: "Till now we were very proud to support children with disabilities in our country."

The Oslo Butcher is For Abortion: Satanism
For a time Anders Breivik wanted to be Catholic. Actually he remarked that Benedict XVI is a "cowardly, incompetent, corrupt and illegitimate Pope".
(kreuz.net) It is "thoroughly tedious" that the police continuously and immediately describe the Oslo Butcher, Anders Behring Breivik (32) as a "Christian Fundamentalist".
This revelation comes from the famous Italian specialist in cults and sects Massimo Introvigne (56) on the 25th of July.
According to Introvigne, who studied at the Vienna Observatory for Intolerance and Discrimination against Christians, insists that the concept "fundamentalism" can be a tool of anti-Christian discrimination.
Introvigne insists that the concept has a precise definition. It describes a very anti-Catholic current in protestantism.
Actually Brevik must be understood according to the following sources:
-his profile on the social networking site 'facebook.com'
-sixty site posting on an anti-Islamic, Norwegian website
-his 1500 page book "2083, A European Declaration of Independence", which he sent a few hours before the massacre to friends and the media.
A Fundamentalist Looks Differently
Breiviks membership in the anti-Catholic Masonic Lodge was made known by an entry in his 'facebook.com'.
Introvigne explains that his present Lodge practices the Swedish Rite. This "Christian belief" is explained by his membership.
Fundamentalism is very ill-disposed to Freemasonry according to Introvigne.
Otherwise it comes from Breviks 'Facebook' profile that he has a friendship with the operator of the largest Norwegian porn-site -- "despite his decrpit morality" -- added Breivik.
It is also the case that Breivik had sent his book to an ordained minister of "The Church of Satan".
He published the botch job on the 23rd of July on the Internet. The "Church of Satan" is very widespread in Scandinavia.
He dreamt of a prostitute
The tone which Breivik struck reminded Introvigne of the Dutch Homosexual, Pim Fortuyn († 2002).
Fortuyn founded an anti-Islamic party in his country.
Still more, Breivik indicated in his book that abortion is acceptable.
The supposed fundamentalist reported additionally that he laid down two million Euros on the site.
He wanted to pay the money for the execution of his "mission" with a prostitute "of high quality, a real top-model".
The great hierarchy-free Oecumene
According Introvigne's assessment, Breivik's biggest concern isn't religion, rather the 'war against Islam', which in his mind threatens to overwhelm Europe.
Breivig wrote that he had received baptism and confirmation at the age of fiteen.
He himself comes from a wealthy and Godless family, who allowed him "free choice".
Some years after veering into Protestantism Breivik came to the view that the Protestant community was dead and that it had fallen to multi-culturalism and philo-Islamic ideology.
For a time Breivig desired to become a Catholic, according to his own admission.
Actually, in his opinion the Church was sold to Islam, as the Pope then had decided, to engage in so-called inter-religious dialogue with the Moslems.
About Benedict XVI, he said, that he had lost "Christendom and the European Christians".
He must be termed as a "cowardly, incompetent, corrupt and illegitimate Pope".
For that reason Breivik wanted to eliminate the protestants and the Church, and a "Christian Congress of Europe".
From that he expected a completely new "European Church" to arise.

Cardinal Schönborn Makes Heavy Statements -- Abortion is Murder -- There is no Homosexual Marriage
The Viennese Cardinal has served his neo-Conservative public yet again. His words will be taken so seriously, that none of the media bosses will report them.
(kreuz.net, Pöllau) Child slaughter "is murder".
This is what the Viennese Cardinal Christoph Count Schönborn said for a neo-Conservative youth gathering at the village of Pollau with a population of 2000 about 150 km south of Vienna -- according to reports from the neo-Conservative site, 'kath.net.'
The sensational comments of the Cardinal have brought forth no media echo.
An Innocent is Killed
During a child murder "an innocent living being, a guilty person in the womb of its own mother is killed" -- said Cardinal von Schönborn.
In the past the same Cardinal had frequently explained that he doesn't desire any change in the murderous abortion laws in Austria.
In June 2008 he hung the Papal Gregorian Order around the neck of the Viennese Abortion politician, Comrade Renate Brauner.
In Sept 2009 he forbid the Salzburg Auxiliary Bishop Andreas Laun from participating in a pro-Life demonstration in Vienna
There is no such thing as Homosexual Marriage
The Cardinal expressed himself about homosexual depravity.
He insists that "there is no homosexual marriage".
Marriage is between man an woman who are open to children: "everything else is a false advertising".
The Church isn't going to address itself "against homosexual marriage, because it doesn't exist".
He is a son of divorced parents.
In regards to divorce the Cardinal said that he was "truly angry" about the reproaches against the Church.
The Church is the only institution, which defends marriage:
"Is it merciful to separate children between mother and father and make them into a play ball for the parents?"
The Cardinal, who comes from a divorced family, recalled the pain of many women after divorce.
In conclusion the Cardinal wished the youth and "also the Bishop the courage to speak out on such things."
Because only the truth will make you free.

Poland Continues Drive to Abolish Abortion
Edit: What you need to get rid of Abortion is a Catholic Government. Cowtowing to the Republicans like the Pro-Life movement does offers no realistic remedies because it is a facile movement with no deep spiritual moorings.

Polish Youth Favor Banning Abortion: Poland Prepares Vote on Abortion
Editor: check out the way the ages are set up in this Life News article. The hippie generation of 68 is less in support of the Catholic position than the younger, better and more promising, generation. Once again, we're seeing that the generation which fell for all the newfangled ideas, the abortion, the draconian family law, the divorce, the contraception and the sodomy is out of step with Poland's Zeigeist. 
"...76% of those aged 15 to 24 favor total protection for unborn children."
[Life News] Poland lawmakers cast their initial vote on legislation that would ban all abortions in the European nation — supporting a bid to move ahead with legislation that would tighten the nation’s laws already prohibiting most abortions.
The PRO Foundation has organized a grassroots campaign to lobby MPs to support the legislation and the nation’s Catholic bishops have also played an integral role in advancing the legislation. The legislation is the result of a citizen-led initiative drive in which sponsors collected 100,000 signatures over the course of three months but which resulted in collecting 600,000 petitions in just two weeks.
The bill would remove the rape and incest exceptions from the current federal law in Poland and provide protection for pregnant women and unborn children starting at conception. Also, currently, Polish law allows for abortion in cases related to maternal health, if the pregnancy is the result of “illegal activity,” or if the unborn child is disabled.
Some Polish abortion practitioners have reportedly manipulated the law to do abortions on children with minor problems such as a cleft palate and others are misreporting the fetal age of the unborn baby at the time of the abortion to escape prosecution.
According to an AFP report, members of the Polish parliament turned back an effort by left-wing legislators to stop progress on the bill and, instead, they sent it to a committee for further work. Members of the Sejm voted 254-151 against the communist Democratic Left Alliance’s motion to reject the legislation and, in a subsequent vote, lawmakers sent the bill to committee for finalization.
Cardinal Stanislaw Dziwisz, a former assistant to Pope John Paul II, told Poland’s largest opinion weekly, Gosc Niedzielny, “The Church clearly teaches that it is the obligation of Catholics not to protect the current ‘compromise’ but to aim at complete protection of life. This is a solution, which the Church calls for. I support all efforts aiming at improving the protection of human life.”
The Nazi invasion in World War II brought legalized abortions to Poland and the situation was exacerbated under Communist rule by the Soviet Union. In 1993, a free Poland put the current pro-life laws in place but did not ban all abortions.
A survey conducted earlier this month demonstrates a shift in the population’s attitudes about abortion and showed 65% of Poles agree that the law “should unconditionally protect the life of all children since conception,” and 76% of those aged 15 to 24 favor total protection for unborn children. Some 57 percent of those aged 55 to 70 agree that a ban on abortions is appropriate.

Abortion Banned in Poland
EXCLUSIVE: Poland to vote on historic bill banning all abortions after massive grassroots campaign
WARSAW, Poland, June 28, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - After months of shielding the initiative from English media, organizers of a massive pro-life grassroots campaign in Poland have now told LifeSiteNews.com that Parliamentarians in the country are preparing to vote this week on an historic bill that would enshrine total protection for children in the womb from the moment of conception.The organizers told LSN that they were worried that if the news broke in the English-speaking world, pro-abortion foreign powers would have poured money into the country to oppose their popular efforts.
Legislators in Poland's parliament will vote this week on a bill to ban all abortions in the country.
The bill, which comes up for first reading in the ‘Sejm’ (lower house) on Thursday, is the result of a huge nation-wide grassroots initiative launched by Warsaw’s PRO Foundation and supported by the country’s bishops and a newly-formed pro-life parliamentary committee.

Bishop McCormack Defends Life
Editor: If this Bishop is allowed to campaign against the slaughter of babies, it's likely he's allowed to do so only because he supported Obamacare.
This time when New Hampshire’s Catholic bishop got involved in a political issue, there was no outcry.
The last time he got involved, the GOP leadership in the New Hampshire House got hot under the collar.
This time the issue was HB 329, a bill from the Republican-controlled Legislature that requires a teen to notify her parents about her intention to get an abortion.
