By Niamh Uí Bhriain Editor’s note. The 8th amendment was the pro-life amendment to the Irish Constitution that was removed in May 2018 in a referendum. Last week, I traveled to Cork to meet with pro-life leaders in Munster and we talked, amongst other things, about renewing and rebuilding our culture, about the hope provided …

This comes from the Irish pro-life group Family & Life The National Maternity Hospital in Holles Street has confirmed that two recently advertised consultant posts will be available only to doctors willing to carry out abortions.

By David Quinn A case has come to light from the Coombe hospital [in Dublin] involving a woman who was told she could have not an abortion – not yet at any rate – because her unborn baby’s abnormality did not appear to fall within the definition of ‘fatal’ that is contained in the new …

By Dave Andrusko Given the uneasiness in the medical community about the introduction of abortion on demand through at least the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, and outright opposition by other physicians to abortion at all, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that over the weekend the pro-abortion Irish Times would report that not a single General …

By Dave Andrusko Strangely enough, when juxtiposed, the two items reminded me of the aphorism, “One man’s meat is another man’s poison.” Or maybe not so odd. The headline for a story in today’s Irish Times reads Photographs of 2018: ‘Irish Times’ photographers’ best shotsFrom Ann Lovett’s former boyfriend to the Eighth Amendment abortion referendum. …

By Dave Andrusko Wasting no time, a mere one day after the formality of Republic of Ireland President Michael D Higgins signing the “Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy) Bill 2018,” the Irish Family Planning Association (IFPA) announced it has completed all its preparations and will be ready to end the lives of unborn babies …

By Dave Andrusko The vise continues to close tighter around the throats of unborn children in Ireland. Once among the most protective countries in the world, the Republic of Ireland seems bent on mimicking the worst pro-abortion policies found anywhere. Consider the Slippery Slope firmly wedged into this headline in the Irish Times: “Abortion campaigners …

By Katie Franklin Seven months after Irish voters overwhelmingly chose to repeal the country’s long-standing prohibition on abortion, Parliament is on the verge of legalizing the fatal practice by January 1. Rife with controversial mandates, the bill would make abortion available through [at least]12 weeks of pregnancy and force pro-life citizens who disagree with the …

By Nancy Valko I have always been proud of my Irish heritage so I was especially shocked when a voter referendum in Ireland in May 2018 overwhelmingly approved removing Ireland’s long-standing, constitutional protections for unborn babies and left the details up to the Irish government. Before this, Ireland’s Eighth Amendment protected both unborn babies and …
