Aborting Babies to Choose Gender Legal in Sweden

What a sad, sad world we live in. And once again, Sweden has chosen to walk the path of the godless. Sweden is often the model country for those seeking socialism in our nation or "progressive" ideas. But this is the way of the progressive movement. My heart cries as yet another nation takes yet another step down the road of death.

We must be vigilant.. praying.. speaking out.. standing with God and the unborn and our Constitution... we must not allow this "progression" to continue in our nation. We need to continually stand to stop the march of godless ideology in our nation.

Sweden Rules "Gender-based" Abortions Legal
http://www.thelocal.se/19392/20090512/
The Local reported in February that a woman from Eskilstuna in southern Sweden had twice had abortions after finding out the gender of the child.

The woman, who already had two daughters, requested an amniocentesis in order to allay concerns about possible chromosome abnormalities. At the same time, she also asked to know the foetus's gender.

Doctors at Mälaren Hospital expressed concern and asked Sweden’s National Board of Health and Welfare (Socialstyrelsen) to draw up guidelines on how to handle requests in the future in which they "feel pressured to examine the foetus’s gender" without having a medically compelling reason to do so.

The board has now responded that such requests and thus abortions can not be refused and that it is not possible to deny a woman an abortion up to the 18th week of pregnancy, even if the foetus's gender is the basis for the request.

I shudder to think of the wrath these people will endure if they don't repent and ask for forgiveness for their evil.

Thank you for being a steady voice.
