Thank you. You are very kind.
Hello Steve:
One more thing before I get off this subject.
World wide perspective on abortion, some data and additional material from "Hinduism Today".
1, worldwide forty-two percent of all baby girls compared to 25 percent of all baby boys are aborted. This is surely a trend with profound consequences upon the human race.
2,Selective abortions occur in other Asian countries as well. Dr. Chai Bin Park, Professor of Public Health at the University of Hawaii, School of Public Health, points out that sex selective abortions are even more prevalent in China and Korea than in India.
3,Recognizing and seeking to control this perilous trend, the government of India outlawed prenatal sex determination on January 1st, 1996. The new law makes it illegal to advertise or perform the tests (with a few exceptions), and punishes the doctor, relatives who encourage the test and the woman herself with fines from ten to fifty thousand rupees and jail terms from three to five years.
