And they wonder why the Lisbon Treaty didn’t go over?
The Irish (well, some of them) are still holding to their laws against the taking of human life through abortion, and don’t want other authorities pre-empting the people’s right to their own determination. That’s one of the reasons the Lisbon Treaty failed.
But some people will stop at nothing.
A suit brought by an Irish abortion lobby group to demand that the Republic of Ireland drop its legal protections for unborn children will be heard in the European Court of Human Rights. The Ireland Family Planning Association (IFPA) has been told today by the Court that the case, first launched three years ago, will go ahead.
The action in the European Court was brought by the IFPA, a member of the International Planned Parenthood Federation, as only one aspect of a larger legal and lobbying attack on Ireland’s constitutional protections for unborn children…
The IFPA believes that a ruling from the European Court will force Dublin lawmakers to change laws, enshrined in the constitution, recognising the rights of the unborn to life.
The degree to which this is not jarring is an indication of how far the culture has slid down the slope of incoherence toward insanity.
Irish for life. Thankfully.
