Senatul statului american New Jersey a respins, ieri, legalizarea casatoriilor intre persoane de acelasi sex.Votul (finalizat cu 20 voturi impotriva la 14 pentru) a incheiat o ora si jumatate de dezbateri urmarite cu sufletul la gura de sute de persoane din ambele tabere, venite in cladirea Senatului din Trenton.Respingerea legii este o victorie majora pentru oponenti, care se temeau ca aprobarea ar insemna o restrangere a libertatii religioase si afirmau totodata ca legea nu este necesara, din moment ce in acest stat sunt deja legale uniunile civile intre homosexuali.Suporterii proiectului de lege deplang faptul ca homosexualii “raman cetateni de categoria a doua” si au anuntat ca vor incerca sa obtina acest drept prin instantele de judecata.Previzibil, cu mici exceptii, Republicanii au votat impotriva proiectului de lege in timp ce Democratii, in favoarea lui.In New Jersey au fost legalizate intai parteneriatele domestice (2002) apoi uniunile civile (2006), insa homosexualii au continuat sa afirme ca exista probleme majore, cum ar fi pensia de urmas si imposibilitatea vizitarii partenerilor la spital (?!). De aceea, un proiect de lege vizand acordarea acelorasi drepturi ca si cuplurilor heterosexuale, prin casatorie, a fost introdus in circuitul parlamentar in noiembrie 2009, dupa alegerile pentru postul de guvernator din acest stat. Lobby-ul homosexual s-a grabit sa “prinda” ultimele zile de mandat ale actualului guvernator, Jon Corzine (D), intrucat cel ales, Republicanul Chris Christie, a anuntat ca se va opune prin veto legii, daca aceasta trece de Senat.In momentul de fata, in SUA exista doar 4 state in care casatoria intre homosexuali este permisa: Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa si Vermont, insa acest fals “drept” a fost creat prin decizii ale instantelor sau legislativelor locale, impotriva vointei populare. Toate cele treizeci si unu de state in care s-au tinut referendumuri constitutionale pe acest subiect au interzis “casatoria” homo, cu exemplele notabile ale statelor California si Maine, posibil cele mai liberale de pe teritoriul SUA.

Ce invataminte ar putea desprinde de aici politicienii nostri?

Primul, ca agenda homosexuala este cea a “pasilor mici, dar siguri”. Cei care se amagesc ca “parteneriatul civil” cerut tot mai insistent de lobby-ul inversionistilor sexual din Romania i-ar multumi pe acestia se inseala. Orice fel de recunoastere de catre stat a acestor cupluri (prin uniuni civile sau de orice alt fel) va fi doar primul pas in lupta pentru desfiintarea institutiei sacre a casatoriei prin echivalarea cu o abominatie impotriva firii. De asemenea, odata cu institutionalizarea relatiilor homosexuale, este deschis drumul catre adoptia de copii pentru aceste cupluri.

Al doilea, lupta cetatenilor din miscarile pentru sustinerea casatoriei traditionale din SUA dovedeste ca nicaieri opinia publica nu este favorabila casatoriilor homo, si ca intrebat, poporul va da vot de blam unor astfel de inventii diabolice. Iar datoria legiuitorilor este sa respecte si sa reprezinte vointa populara.

Parliamentary Network E-News Volume 3, No 12 December  2009 International Pro-Life Report on Maternal Mortality: Permissive Abortion Laws Endanger Maternal Health A report from the World Economic Forum (WEF) released this month shows that nations with pro-life laws are better at reducing maternal deaths, and that those countries with liberal abortion policies have higher rates of maternal mortality. The results of this report counter a recent Guttmacher Institute report that featured unsafe abortion as the leading cause of maternal deaths and claimed nations that restricted abortions were damaging women's health. Conversely, the WEF report cites Ireland- where unborn children are strongly protected from abortion-- as having the best maternal health rates and demonstrates a similar trend of pro-life laws and better maternal health throughout the world. In Africa, Mauritius has the lowest maternal mortality rate and strong laws protecting the unborn while Ethiopia, which decriminalized abortion in 2005, has a maternal death rate that is 48 times higher than Mauritius. South Africa with abortion on demand has a high maternal mortality ratio of 400 deaths per 100,000. These results highlight the need for essential emergency obstetrical care and skilled birth attendants as ways to save women's lives, not access to abortion. International Pressure for Abortion Ghana: Planned Parenthood Expands Services and Training The Planned Parenthood Association of Ghana (PPAG), an affiliate of IPPF, is moving to make abortion more readily available and accessible throughout the nation which allows abortion for broad exceptions. PPAG will set-up abortion centers throughout the country beginning next year and is currently training midwives, nurses and volunteers to in two-day "abortion value clarification" workshops. The objective of the workshops is to persuade health care providers to separate their personal, religious and cultural beliefs and values -conscience-which opposes abortion, from their participation in an abortion procedure. Ghana is a target of numerous pro-abortion organizations- including IPPF, Marie Stopes International, Ipas and Pathfinder-which sponsor programs to perform abortion and promote its acceptance throughout the nation. Legislative News Spain Votes to Increase Access to Abortion The Spanish parliament voted this month to permit abortion on demand up to fourteen weeks and allow adolescents to procure an abortion without parental consent. The new law further liberalizes the country's abortion policy, previously limited to twelve weeks. In practice, however, abortion is permitted at any stage of pregnancy on the basis of mental distress- the reason cited for the majority of abortions in Spain each year. The legislation now awaits action by the Senate, which is expected to approve it in early 2010. Italy Approves Sale of Abortion Pill RU-486 Italy has given the final approval for the sale of the abortion drug RU-486. The decision, strongly opposed by the Vatican and some government officials, approves the use of mifepristone but restricts its use to hospitals out of concern for serious side-effects which include bleeding and nausea. The drug is limited to within seven weeks of conception. The Italian Pharmaceuticals Agency (AIFA) had given the abortion pill the green light this past summer but it required additional consideration. Abortion activists vow to fight for greater access to the abortion-inducing drug and question the limitation to hospital use. Executive News Bangladesh Implementing China-like Policy of One Couple, One Child Bangladesh will soon introduce a "one couple, one child" family planning policy in an effort to curb the nation's population growth. Crediting Chinese policy with the idea, the Director General of the Directorate of Family Planning said the policy will not be mandatory but they will educate the public through an awareness campaign that includes the slogan "No more than two children, one is best". Couples with one child will be given preference for services and financial assistance. Bangladesh will be looking for assistance from Chinese population planning authorities on ways to gain public support for the controversial anti-child policy.
