Love and Life Beat Abortion

This space has detailed the pain and destruction abortion visits upon women and children. How can we eliminate abortion at its root? One excellent way is saving sex for marriage, and keeping sex only between a man and a woman married to each other. Keeping sex within its proper boundary keeps it in the place where it best serves its two functions: 1) Bringing children into the world between two adults committed to each other for life, and 2) Increasing the love between the husband and the wife. This simple, time-honoured practice will go a long distance towards eliminating even the thought of killing the unborn and damaging their mothers because it will replace selfishness with love: a love between spouses which overflows to their children. May Swaziland build a culture of love and life.
