Reclaiming Our Children: A Blog About Healing After Abortion

"We believe that an abortion can be an
act of love."Wow! That is one
of the statements on the site "45 million Voices", "What we
Believe" section.

Here is their litany of beliefs:

Values and Beliefs

• We
  believe in the transformative power of speaking our abortion stories 
      
  We believe every woman has
  the right to choose abortion without judgment   

  We believe abortion is a normal choice
  that women make   

  We believe in supporting women who have
  had abortions, no questions asked  

  We believe when a woman
  decides to have an abortion she is doing the very best she can  
   
  We believe “pro-choice” and “anti-choice”
  do not always speak to a woman’s experience, that there should simply be
  CHOICE   

  We believe in honesty, truth-telling, and heart-to-heart communication   

  We believe in the power of voice to heal
  wounds, and to give other women the courage to act and speak   

  We believe abortion providers must be
  protected and supported by communities
    

  We believe the stigma and shame associated
  with abortion extends to abortion clinic staff, and these women and men
  are included in our story telling   

  We believe in the ability
  of women to make decisions for themselves and their family
     
  We believe that women have been terminating
  unintended pregnancies for thousands of years and will continue to do so
  with or with out the support of their family and society
    
  We believe that an abortion can be an act
  of love

It is interesting to note that the more
they attempt to make abortion normal and remove the stigma, the more
things seem to be turning in the other direction.
It is
so sad to think that they can actually believe abortion is an act of love for
anyone, including themselves.

In reading about the founders, one, Kate gives as a
positive the fact that she worked for George Tiller and states she "has
held the hands of thousands of women before, during, and after their
abortion

I have held some of those same hands  who have gone
to Tiller, but way after their abortion, when they have been filled with remorse,
and have been so distraught when they realized what they had done and how they
had been lied to.

I wonder if she has held any hands then?
