Abortion or favor exchanged

Two countries.
The first country used to have the freedom of abortion for a long time. Its communist regime thought it was good for women to go to work and decide over their own bodies.
The second country did not enjoy such freedom 50 years ago, so the women from this country travelled to the first country in order to execute their freedom. The mutual satisfaction was guaranteed and everybody was very happy. Of course, nobody asked those unwanted children about their say in the matter.
But several years ago something terrible happened - the first country's citizens conquered communism and became liberal, or sometimes even conservative. Clergy regained the moral power and started dictating laws of conduct, making the abortion issue one of the hottest topics in the people's minds and hearts.
And thus the present situation is not friendly for women's rights at all... Those poor persecuted creatures are forced to have their babies no matter what - or to seek some other country to get rid of them.
Enters the second country, since 1970's a paradise for those who are not so keen on living with the consequences of their promiscuity. Abortion is free, popular and easy. Wonderful free women of this second country stretch their friendly and sisterly love towards the oppressed and persecuted women of the first country:
"come, dear sisters, you may have your abortions in our hospitals, we might even pay for the procedure; anyway, we used to go to your country once, so it is only fair that we pay you back now." It is called healthcare.
You do not believe me? Check it for yourself.

Sweden "should offer abortions to foreigners"

Sweden, which already has one of the world's most liberal abortion laws, should loosen restrictions further by allowing non-residents access to the procedure, according to a government-commissioned report published on Monday.

"We suggest that foreign women be allowed to have abortions in Sweden," head of the study Eva Eriksson told reporters in Stockholm.
Read on...

The first country, by the way, is Poland.
Conveniently nobody mentions those children...
Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, who formed you from the womb: "I am the LORD, who made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself
(Isa 44:24)

We are about to commemorate our Lord being born as a man. We should be even more happy knowing that abortion was not something anybody considered as a possibility of covering Mary's presumed sin...
