Excerpt from France Constitutionally Enshrines Abortion for Human Life Review:

On March 4 I received an Apple News alert on my phone. There was an image of the Eiffel Tower lit up and a headline noting, “France Becomes First Country in World to Enshrine Abortion in Constitution.” The historic landmark was lit up with the words, “My Body, My Choice” to champion the protection of “women’s rights.”

There are over 1.4 billion people in the world who are active users on an iPhone. Apple can use these news alerts as a way to transmit its worldview. Clearly, a part of its agenda is to convey the opinion that more countries should have abortion be a part of their constitutions and that women have the right to take the lives of their children.

The French bill received overwhelming support with a 780-72 vote. The amendment to Article 34 of the constitution would explicitly enshrine “a woman’s guaranteed freedom to have recourse to an abortion.” France wanted to ensure the ability for all women to take the lives of their children if they desire to do so.

Viewing the remarks of the most powerful individuals in the French government provides insight into how abortion became the law of the land. These quotes allow a deeper understanding of the mindset of those who are radically pro-choice. In order to protect children in the womb, we ought to understand the reasoning of those who speak of abortion rights in borderline religious terms.
