Poland On the Verge of a Blasphemous Heresy

Lucia Maria, over at NZ Conservative had blogged on something quite startling.  We reproduce the post in full, and make a couple of closing observations.

Poland set to give total protection to babies from conception

The Catholic country of Poland is set to give universal protection to unborn babies from conception after a massive grass roots campaign gathered support for such a measure. They've kept the news from the English-speaking world until now, because the Poles were worried they would be flooded with pro-abort money to oppose their efforts. 

Now this part is amazing, and goes to show how deeply people in Poland feel about babies being killed:

To bring the abortion ban before Parliament under Poland’s political system, the sponsors needed to collect 100,000 signatures within three months. They got 600,000 in two weeks.

That's what I mean by massive, 600,000 signatures within 2 weeks! And it's not a fluke, the large majority of Polish people are totally against abortion.

A June 3rd survey showed 65% of Poles agreeing that the law “should unconditionally protect the life of all children since conception.” Only 23% supported abortions in cases where unborn children of 24 weeks or less were diagnosed with a “serious disease.”

Significantly, 76% of those aged 15 to 24-years-old wanted total protection for the unborn – the most of any age group. The lowest level of support came from the oldest age bracket, 55 to 70 years old, but still with 57% supporting total protection.

Abortion was not initially sold to the population as a human rights issue as it was to countries in the West.  No, it was imposed on Poland by the Nazis, and then continued by the State when Communism took control.

“This project is a chance to finally reject the heritage of Nazism and Communism which brought ‘legal abortion’ to Poland in the first place,” Jacek Sapa of the PRO Foundation told LifeSiteNews. “It was Hitler and Stalin who imposed it on Poles and it’s high time we clearly disassociate ourselves from those deadly ideologies.”

Awesome!

Now wait for the shit to hit the fan.

This wonderful development illustrates how many social iniquities can be removed at the ballot box once a clear majority of a country's population adheres to the Christian faith--assuming, of course, the bill passes. 

Secondly, we wonder how many cases will be brought against Poland at the European human rights courts if it passes.  The religion of secular humanism does not easily tolerate dissent.
