(Warning: This news report contains descriptions of abortionists’ disposal of aborted babies and may disturb some readers.)
Pro-life activists are horrified by reports of thousands of aborted and miscarried babies being burned to provide green energy in Great Britain, but they point out that lax standards in the United States don’t stop the same thing from happening here.
Reports out of Britain went viral this week, following the revelation that more than 15,000 aborted and miscarried babies were incinerated by some 27 different National Health Service trusts. Some facilities burned them as rubbish and others did so as part of a “waste-to-energy” program that generates power for heat.
Americans United for Life attorney Jeanneane Maxon said the discoveries are revolting and reveal some disturbing facts about our culture.
“It is just appalling to see where society has come to that we have disregarded human life, so that even after children are born and you have the bodies of these dead babies – which is tragic in and of [itself] – that they would be disposed of in such a callous manner. It really hearkens back to the images that you think of in the Nazi Holocaust,” Maxon said.
Maxon called the practice “barbaric” and said she’s surprised this happened in Great Britain, which has more restrictive laws on abortion than the U.S. In fact, Maxon said the United States is one of only four nations worldwide that allow abortion throughout a pregnancy. The others are Canada, China and North Korea.
“So if a country that has more progressive laws regarding life on their books can do this, what is at stake for our country? What will we continue to see unless we as Americans speak up and say that life is valuable and precious and it deserves more than being disregarded and used by others for things even such as energy. It’s really just appalling,” said Maxon, who shudders at the idea of energy policy being championed above the preservation of human life.
“Isn’t that just a horrifying example of misplaced priorities in our society that we would value conserving energy over the lives of children? You often hear the phrase that any country’s most valuable resource is its children. I believe that, and, wow, aren’t priorities just so out of whack,” Maxon said.
