The Truth About The RH Bill: 15th Congress

FACTORS OF POVERTY

Ignorance. It is having a lack of information, or lack of knowledge.

Disease. When a community has a high disease rate, absenteeism is high, productivity is low, and less wealth is created.

Apathy. It is when people do not care, or when they feel so powerless that they do not try to change things, to right a wrong, to fix a mistake, or to improve conditions.

Dishonesty. It is ironic that we get very upset when a petty thief steals ten dollars' worth of something in the market, yet an official may steal a thousand dollars from the public purse, which does four thousand dollars worth of damage to the society as a whole, yet we do not punish the second thief.

Dependency. It is an attitude, a belief, that one is so poor, so helpless, that one can not help one's self, that a group cannot help itself, and that it must depend on assistance from outside.

From Contraception to Abortion

"I’ve been all around the world, and the way they start trying to legalize abortion is to legalize contraception first. And of course it fails tremendously, and so women start looking for illegal abortions...Then the same people who are pushing contraception say now we have to legalize abortion. It’s a really neat little system that works every time." -Dr. Brian Clowes, Director of Research and Training for Human Life International

"As people turn to contraception, there will be a rise, not a fall, in the abortion rate." -Malcolm Potts, former Medical Director of the IPPF

"For two decades of economic and social developments, people have organized intimate relationships and made choices that define their views of themselves and their places in society, in reliance on the availability of abortion in the event that contraception should fail." -U.S. Supreme Court, Planned Parenthood v. Casey
