ABORTION
Illegal but Real
"Pregnancy and abortion exact a toll on the health of women
- not just physically but mentally and emotionally too. Without
the proper health services, women are always in danger of having
unwanted pregnancies that could lead to dangerous abortion procedures."
MEDIA
& RELIGION
In Covering Women's Health, Are the Media Afraid of the
Church?
"In the eyes of the church, words like gender, family, contraception,
reproductive rights and reproductive health are questionable words.
Limiting the meaning of these words also limits the lives of women."
REPRODUCTIVE
TECHNOLOGIES
Babies at Any Cost?
"Will new reproductive health technologies create a hybrid
human or monsters? Will women be reduced to baby makers, with their
wombs for rent, eggs for sale? What about our sould? Will women
have to worry if they can go to heaven if they die giving birth
to, say, quintuplets because they resorted to in vitro fertilization?"
