It would seem odd to celebrate abortion \u2014 the intentional, targeted killing of a preborn child \u2014 during a holiday dedicated to the birth of a very special Child, but the abortion industry seems to have no problem doing just that. Year after year, Christmas is exploited to promote abortion, despite how contradictory the notion seems.<\/p>\n

This year, Doctors for Choice UK is selling<\/a> a selection of abortion-themed Christmas cards. On one, a Santa hat is emblazoned with the words “Make choice great again,” while another one riffs on a Christmas hymn \u2014 “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” \u2014 with the phrase “LARC the Herald Angels Sing,” alongside two angels and Christmas ornaments decorated with forms of long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), like IUDs. Another celebrates chemical abortions, with a Christmas tree festooned with pills and the words “Ho Ho Home use” on the cover. Inside the card, it says, “Peace, love, and pills in the post.”<\/p>\n

As medical professionals, this group should especially know better than to promote at-home, DIY abortions; it has had disastrous results in the United Kingdom. After allowing DIY abortions, there was a surge in ambulance calls<\/a> for complications from taking the abortion pills, and skyrocketing complication rates<\/a>. At least one woman has died<\/a>. The abortion pill has been found to be four times more dangerous<\/a> for women than a first-trimester surgical abortion.<\/p>\n
