Maternal Means Mother.

The governments initiative to help with the maternal and child health care in developing countries is an excellent idea, that the Liberals have used as a wedge in their "cultural war" to gain votes. This is disgusting.

First, the Liberals need to understand what "maternal" means:

Main Entry: ma·ter·nal
Pronunciation: \mə-ˈtər-nəl\
Function: adjective
Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French & Medieval Latin; Middle French maternel, from Medieval Latin maternalis, from Latin maternus, from mater mother — more at mother
Date: 15th century

1 : of, relating to, belonging to, or characteristic of a mother : motherly
2 a : related through a mother b : inherited or derived from the female parent

Since the 15th century maternal has meant Mother. There should be no confusion about the definition, but it appears that lefties just don't quite understand what Mother means. It means you are the female who gives birth to a child who is your daughter or son. Hopefully everyone can agree on that point. Well....maybe not everyone.

Fried said Oxfam has seen many girls as young as 11 and 12 carry babies to term and suffer lasting heath problems as a result.

"Where it's necessary, abortion is a safe tool to save a mother's life," he said.

Fried, what an appropriate name! Fried needs to understand that if a woman aborts her baby, she is not, and will not be a MOTHER! So, an initiative to help Mothers and their children, (both already born and breathing human beings) has nothing to do with abortion. When these Mothers are just trying to keep their babies alive, they do not want some supposedly "charitable" organization shoving the abortion debate into their lives. These women want food, clean water and medication for the babies they already have. How much would it cost to have free clinics for these families?

If OXFAM does not understand this, they deserve no more of our money. United Way is another organization that supports abortion. They have smartened up and allow you to direct your donation to a specific charity. The worse offender is UNICEF. They used to have all the Catholic schools getting the kids to collect change at Halloween. Can you remember the last time you saw one of their donation boxes? They don't want you to know they had to stop the program, because Catholic schools stopped supporting them, over their support of abortions.

Funny how the news articles are all about mean old Conservatives, and the people most often quoted are pro-abortion. How about the 50% who are pro-life? Crickets!!!

Gwen Landolt, vice president of REAL Women Canada, praised the Conservative government's decision, saying that they clearly “realize that you don't impose the practices of the Western world on the developing world.”

Landolt told LifeSiteNews.com on Tuesday that the prime minister had effectively said that his plan’s purpose is to “help poverty stricken countries, and to help them is to help women with clean water and proper medical care and looking after children after they're born.

“But destroying human life is simply no solution to the problem, because women in the developing world – because of cultural and religious reasons – they like having their children. They want their babies.”

Hey, there's an idea, ask the Mothers what they need. If they say food, clean water, and education, then let's put our dollars into those important initiatives. Let OXFAM/United Way/UNICEF do the abortions on their donors dime. Everyone happy now?

The Liberals should be ashamed of their "culture war" that is hurting MOTHERS in developing countries. They were not happy just attacking our troops, while they themselves march with terrorists that our troops are fighting, they are glorifying Galloway for sh*t sake! They have now included Mothers in third world countries, who love their babies and want them to have a fair chance at life. Unfortunately, the Liberal/NDP/Bloc coalition are promoting abortion to Mothers who have seen more death in their short lives than we can imagine. It really is sick.

Here's an idea. ALL 308 MP's should be required to spend all of July in Africa, helping at clinics, digging wells, growing crops, and helping Mothers take care of their families. Maybe then, when they tell us that these Mothers really want abortions, we might believe them. Let them see what it means to have no power, no fuel and no food. I haven't even talked about political and military dictators who steal all the aid money. Or the NGO's that take 75% of the money given to their organizations. Or the pirates and terrorists who steal the food and then sell it to buy guns. None of that is on the Liberals radar, or the medias, those are not divisive enough, they don't promote the "culture war" that the Liberals have been carrying out for years.

Maternal means Mother. You can not be a Mother if you abort your child. It's that simple. Aid to Mothers and children, leave the abortion issue out of it.

Catholics, the United Way and UNICEF.

So, this month is the United Way's big push for funds. It is the only charity that my work actively promotes. We can get payroll deductions taken off so that we can donate more and get it taken off in small amounts throughout the year. Problem is, the Catholic Church has actively told Catholics not to donate to the United Way because some of that money will go towards promoting abortions.

UNICEF's big push used to be at Halloween, do you remember kids with those boxes around their necks at Halloween, asking for change for UNICEF? Seen any of those lately? Thought not. WHY? Well UNICEF tries to make it sound like they planned the whole thing, but they refuse to admit it died because Catholic schools have stopped supporting their campaign. Funny how the public schools aren't taking up the slack.

A rejuvenated Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF Campaign

Fifty-one years later, in 2006, following consultations with educators from all regions, UNICEF Canada has revamped its annual campaign to make it more engaging, educational and fun for Canadian kids, as well as more relevant, flexible and easy to implement for teachers. We have also been listening to the concerns expressed by teachers, schools and parents regarding the logistical and safety challenges of the traditional door-to-door coin collection.

Safety challenges? The kids are already going door to door for candy. What better time to also ask for donations. Too bad you are not listening to the Catholic schools concerns about your support of abortion. Stop listening to lefty teachers and supporting abortion, and you might get those little UNICEF boxes back next Halloween.

New York, Oct. 5, 2007 (C-fam.org/CWNews.com) - The UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) has joined with the sponsors of a new drive to promote legal abortion, the Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute (C-Fam) reports.

Two charities that have cut off a huge source of funds by going against Catholic/Christian teachings. Seems like they are less interested in getting funding than promoting their own agenda's. Why would UNICEF and the United Way purposely set out to strangle their own organizations? Is a dead baby more important than a live baby that Christians would be willing to help? What is it with lefties and dead babies?

I actually found a way to donate through the United Way, you can donate to a specific charity like, Dogs With Wings, so that no money goes to organizations you do not morally agree with.

Morals, too bad these two charitable organizations have lost there way.
