RESPECT LIFE CORNER (PART 3 OF 3)

The Law and New Risks of the Abortion Pill

Over the years, the FDA has bent the law and shown disregard for women’s health when it comes to chemical abortion. Most recently, the FDA began allowing mifepristone to be prescribed through virtual doctor’s visits, to be ordered online, and to be available at neighborhood pharmacies. This lack of safety standards puts women and girls at risk. Because they are less likely to go to a doctor’s office and get an ultrasound, they may unknowingly have an ectopic pregnancy or be farther along in their pregnancy than they realize. It is very dangerous to the woman to take abortion pills in either of these circumstances. In addition, allowing access to the pills through virtual appointments and online orders may be exploited by violent partners and human traffickers.










Are you searching for what God’s plan is for your life? Are you discerning your vocation and wondering what steps to take? The Diocese of Belleville is hosting a discernment night for high school students and single young adults to help answer your questions.   The night begins with Mass followed by dinner in the undercroft, a talk on discernment, and Eucharistic Adoration. Questions, email mskorch@diobelle.org.
