IRISH CATHOLIC HOSPITALS REFUSE TO CARRY OUT ABORTION: ALLEGED NEWS

"There comes a point at which you have got to stand your ground and say we cannot obey that law if it requires us to carry out direct abortion." [1] 
   Indeed.
Irish Hospitals with a Catholic ethos cannot perform direct abortions and Church Leaders and Hospital Trustees must make that clear to the government, the Director of the Iona Institute has said; Alleged News [1]
Mr David Quinn told The Tablet, "There is no way that any hospital called Catholic can perform direct abortions," as it was "repugnant to their ethos": Alleged News [1]

Refusal to Kill Unborn Infants
Catholic Hospitals in Ireland are taking a strong stand against government proposal that would force them to abort unborn babies, Alleged News. [2]
Ireland voted to repeal its Eighth Amendment in May, removing protection for unborn babies from the Irish Constitution.
Now Catholic Leaders in Ireland are protecting the right of the unborn child to life.
The Irish Catholic Bishops' Conference recently published a code of healthcare ethics that states that Catholic Hospitals cannot perform abortions. [3]
The Code of Ethical Standards for Healthcare is available at Veritas Stores at the link in [4]

Handed to government
'The Code of Ethical Standards for Healthcare' was given to the Irish government earlier this month, when it met with representatives of the Bishops' Conference. The Code of Healthcare Ethics restates that Catholic hospitals cannot perform direct abortions. [5]
The Code applies up to 20 hospitals connected to religious orders.

BAYER TO STOP SELLING STERILIZATION DEVICE FOLLOWING MOUNTING LAWSUITS AND COMPLAINTS: ALLEGED NEWS

BAYER HAS ANNOUNCED THAT IT WILL DISCONTINUE SELLING ESSURE STERILIZATION COIL IN THE UNITED STATES BY THE END OF THE YEAR, ALLEGED NEWS. [1] This follows years of litigation and sustained pressure from thousands of women who have reported injuries and other adverse side effects from the Essure sterilization coil: alleged News. [1]

In a press release, Bayer announced that it would cease selling or distributing Essure after December 31st 2018: Alleged News. [1] Bayer also notified the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of its decision to withdraw the device: Alleged News. [1]

Nearly 27 000 adverse events
Since Essure was first approved in 2002 by the FDA, the FDA has received nearly 27 thousand adverse events reports associated with the device: Alleged News. [1] These include reports of persistent abdominal pain, severe allergic and autoimmune reactions, bleeding, bloating, hair loss, headaches, device migration (the coil moves unplanned to other parts of the body), device breakage (the device breaks within the body), perforation (a hole made by boring or piercing) of the uterus (womb), fallopian tubes (typically a pair of tubes along which eggs travel from the ovaries to the womb) or other organs, Alleged News. [1]
Bayer has also independently received over 30 000 complaints for the device; Alleged News. [1]

Thousands of Women
Thousands of women coalesced through Facebook groups and organized protests to speak out against Essure and have called on the FDA and Congress to ban the device: Alleged News. [1] One Facebook group with the name Essure Problems has 36 000 members; Alleged News. [1]  As of mid-April, 16 800 women have joined lawsuits against Bayer, suing for various adverse side effects or injuries sustained while using Essure: Alleged News. [1] Bayer reportedly faces at least two Essure-related class-action lawsuits in Canada; Alleged News. [1]

Side Effects of Essure
During clinical trials for Essure, many women reported adverse side effects after having the device inserted, including pain, nausea/vomiting,
dizziness/light headed and bleeding.

Since the device has been on the market, many women reported experiencing adverse side effects/ events including 
Persistent Pain
Severe autoimmune responses
Rashes
Hair Loss
Weight Gain
Bloating
Fatigue
Ectopic Pregnancy
Other symptoms, Alleged News
Reports of device migration, device breakage or perforated organs among women using Essure, Alleged News [1]

Hysterectomy (Surgery with total loss of womb)
The FDA has received approximately 9 000 reports of cases where women using Essure were required to undergo surgery to have the device removed, in most cases via hysterectomy; Alleged News. [1]
Adverse events reports have recorded four deaths and five miscarriages among women who have had an Essure insertion, though it is reportedly uncertain whether Essure was directly responsible in these cases, Alleged News. [1]

Nickel Allergies
Essure contains Nickel, a common allergen, and initially the FDA required Conceptus - the company which originally developed Essure sterilization - to include in the Essure label a contraindication for the device for women with known Nickel allergies, meaning that women with known Nickel allergies were not eligible to have the coil installed: Alleged News. [1] However, in 2011, Conceptus successfully lobbied the FDA to change the contraindication to a warning, meaning that doctors would be cautioned against inserting Essure in women with known Nickel allergies, but were no longer required to test for it: Alleged News. [1] Studies have reportedly shown that nearly 20 percent of adults are allergic to Nickel: Alleged News. [1] in 2013 Bayer acquired Conceptus for $1.1 billion; Alleged News. [1]

Safe Contraceptive Options for Women
For women who are concerned for their reproductive health, safe and natural contraceptive options for Women are discussed in the book 'Value-Based Sexual Expression'. These include the 'Billings Ovulation Method' [see pages 25 to 30], Ovulation Home Test [pages 30 to 32].

BREAKING NEWS :REPARATION CRUSADE FOR MET GALA AND 'HEAVENLY BODIES' EXHIBIT IN MANHATTAN; ALLEGED NEWS

TODAY LUMIERE CHARITY, GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH AND GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH CONTEMPLATIVES JOINED IN PRAYERFUL REPARATION WITH AMERICA NEEDS FATIMA.
America Needs Fatima announced they converge today at 12 noon in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan to do reparation for the MET Gala and the "Heavenly Bodies" exhibit. [1]
They have requested that others join in a peaceful and prayerful Rosary as they pray in reparation.
If you wish to join in prayer, please find link to online Rosary
http://comepraytherosary.org/ 

Exhibits
One item in the 'Heavenly Bodies' exhibit is a mask of leather straps and cruciform plastic beads which is described as offering 'a rare dose of fetishism'; Alleged News. [2] The cruciform plastic beads appear very like rosary beads. 
There are transparent women's dresses modeled after clerical attire worn by bishops and priests. There is a cardinal's robe featuring a neckline with the mannequin's decolletage deeply exposed. Another item is a short skirt with a top and icon of Our Lady: Alleged News.  [1]

Loan from Vatican
Part of the 'Heavenly Bodies' exhibit displays vestments and sacred objects on loan from the Vatican: Alleged News. [2] 
Mr Andrew Bolton, curator in charge of the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, received authorization from senior Vatican officials to borrow the vestments: Alleged News. [3] 
Cardinal Gianfranco Ravasi, Minister of Culture for the Vatican, participated in the news conference which announced the exhibit in February, Alleged News. [3]
The Cardinal reportedly said fashion had biblical origins ("It was God Who dressed us. God was the tailor in Genesis") and that he saw a common thread between the dress code for a gala and the otherworldliness of ecclesiastical vestments: Alleged News. Both of them signified, he said, a distinction from the mundane and quotidian: Alleged News. [3] As for those who consider the accessorizing of papal vestments with modern fashion a blasphemous exploitation, Cardinal Ravasi said it at least shows those Christian symbols still touch a nerve: Alleged News. [3]
The exhibit, "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination" press preview was attended by Cardinal Archbishop Timothy Dolan, Alleged News. [4]

Cardinal Archbishop Dolan reportedly spoke the following from a podium: “You may be asking, what’s the church doing here? You may be asking, what is the cardinal archbishop of New York doing here? Think about it just for a moment. It’s because the church and the Catholic imagination are all about three things: truth, goodness, and beauty. That’s why we have grade schools and universities, to teach the truth. That’s why we love to serve the poor, to do good. And that’s why we’re into things such as art, poetry, music, liturgy, and, yes, even fashion, to thank God for the gift of beauty," Alleged News. [4]

Sacred Items
More than 40 sacred items have been lent from the sacristy of the Sistine Chapel, Alleged News. [5] They range in date from the mid-18th to the earliest 21st centuries and encompass more than 15 papacies: Alleged News. [5]
The first class relics of Blessed Paul IX and Saint John Paul II - instead of being honored - were included in access for the Met Launch; Alleged News. [5]
Among fashions noted at the Launch, the clothing of the Holy Father of the Catholic Church was reflected in silver short female attire, with papal mitre.
Another dress, high cut with cutaway neckline featured a jewelled cross theme. A further gold gown featured low cleavage with gold cross and cross jewellery.
The images of Our Blessed Lady were applied over a further strapless dress. An entire nativity scene was featured in a headdress. [5] 

During the Met Gala, singer Madonna put on a post-dinner performance, singing her song from 1989, Like a Prayer: Alleged News.
The singer appeared in the Great Hall at the Metropolitan Museum of Art walking down steps, flanked by monks, starting her performance in matching robe, before removing clothing to a white corset and sheer skirt, wearing a fake crown of thorns; Alleged News.[5]

Trust
The people of God trust spiritual leaders for faultless guidance in adherence to the moral law as entrusted by God. Those who love and follow God look to the virtue of modesty as it applies to vesture in order to judge what is appropriate. [6] 
To dress modestly is to dress with consideration by avoidance of causing undue discomfort in the thoughts and bodies of others in a world attempting to rise from the results of our universal condition of fallen nature. 
To priests is entrusted the sacred responsibility to unerringly lead the people of God on the road of moral responsibility, as shepherds devotedly lead the flock. 
Pope Pius XII isolated the difficulty with fashion, "The problem of fashion consists in the harmonious reconciliation of a person's exterior ornamentation with the interior of a quiet and modest spirit", [6].
"How is immodesty to be judged? "The garment must not be evaluated according to the estimation of a decadent or already corrupt society, but according to the aspirations of a society which prizes the dignity and seriousness of its public attire." [6]
Pope Pius XII declared, "It might be said that society speaks through the clothing it wears. Through its clothing it reveals its secret aspirations and uses it, at least in part, to build or destroy its future." [6]
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, mandated purity in glances, thoughts, desires and actions, (Matthew 5:28) and warned against giving scandal, (Matthew 18:6-8) 

Reparation
We make reparation today for the following: 
- the draping of what appears to be the symbol of gospel prayer, the rosary, over fetishist mask
- the promotion of clothing which appears to expose rather than modestly attire, in conjunction with sacred items and saints' first class relics 
- in honor of  Christ our Saviour's suffering in order to save us, during which He wore the crown of thorns 
- in prayer that society, and in particular our youth, may be guided to the wisdom of modesty 
- in reparation to God for lack of honor regarding that which is sacred to the worship of the Almighty
- in reparation to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, and Our Blessed Savior, for disrespect shown by use of their Images in profane context
- for the juxtaposition of sacred with profane

WE CALL ON CHRISTIAN LEADERS TO RESTORE

SACRED VESTMENTS TO THE HOLINESS OF THE SACRISTY OF THE CHURCH, AND  NOT TO EXPOSE

THEM TO SITUATIONS NOT IN KEEPING WITH 

 THE GODLY VALUES TO WHICH  THE CHURCH 

ASPIRES.

PRESIDENT EKEOCHA HAS WRITTEN AN OPEN LETTER TO MP's AHEAD OF WESTMINSTER HALL DEBATE: ALLEGED NEWS

PRESIDENT OBIANUJU EKEOCHA, FOUNDER OF CULTURE OF LIFE AFRICA, HAS WRITTEN AN OPEN LETTER TO MP's AHEAD OF A WESTMINSTER HALL DEBATE TOMORROW ON 'ACCESS TO REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS AROUND THE WORLD', Alleged News. [1]

President Ekeocha, author of Target Africa, discussed the premise of the debate being sponsored by Labour MP for Walthamstow Stella Creasy; Alleged News. 

  President Ekeocha explains that the United Kingdom has become one of the most enthusiastic western proponents of what is termed 'reproductive rights,' a concept seen and understood across all Africa as abortion, contraception, sterilisation and graphic (age-inappropriate) sexuality education; Alleged News. [1]

Incompatible with culture

80 percent of African countries have continued to resist and reject the concept that abortion should be legal, Pres Ekeocha points out. 

  She further affirms that it is 'an idea that is incompatible with our culture which teaches us that every human being carries bloodlines of clans and families that are never to be forgotten and that our lives begin right from our mothers' womb," Alleged News. [1]

Organizations such as Marie Stopes International, International Planned Parenthood Federation an IPS run lobbying campaigns at parliaments in order to legalize abortion even against the will of the people, according to Pres Ekeocha,

   "And when we investigate, we find out that some of these organizations are performing illegal abortions in African countries where abortion is not legal", Alleged News. [1] 

  Pres Ekeocha further deplores sex education in schools that "does not respect African cultural values and sexual mores," Alleged News. [1]

Precious gift from God - 'onyinyechi'

Pres Ekeocha calls on the MP's taking part in the debate to understand why people in Africa see the human life of every one of their babies in the womb as 'onyinyechi' - a precious gift from God, Alleged News.[1]

Target Africa

Pres Ekeocha has written the book, 'Target Africa', available at Amazon.uk

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Target-Africa-Ideological-Neo-Colonialism-Twenty-First/dp/1621642151/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1526399370&sr=8-1&keywords=target+africa

IRELAND: POLITICIANS UNABLE TO DEFEND SHOCKING ABORTION BILL WHICH WOULD REPLACE 8th AMENDMENT

COURAGEOUS IRISH MAN ASKED THE POLITICIANS WHO SUPPORT REPEALING IRELAND'S PRO-LIFE EIGHTH AMENDMENT QUESTIONS REGARDING ABORTION. 

EITHER VAGUE ANSWERS OR NO ANSWERS WERE GIVEN. SEE THE VIDEO AT THIS LINK.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/pulse/video-irish-politicians-cant-defend-abortion-bill-they-support

The people of Ireland continue to throng the streets, exercise their democratic right and ask questions regarding the issue of intra-uterine murder of innocent Irish citizens: the issue of abortion. 

  Abortion will never be accepted by the people of Ireland. Placards of protest have reached such a level that the Taoiseach of Ireland has alluded to them as 'vile' and 'upsetting'. 

 Yes, the images of murdered infants are not pleasant. Some prolife billboards have been censored. Democracy entails the freedom to have knowledge of truthful content.

See the video at the following link:

Please support the Irish majority determined to keep their citizens safe and free from womb to the end of life. 

  The world is watching and praying. Let us call on the power of Almighty God to intervene in this great work for justice - the defence of the most innocent and vulnerable in our society.

ABORTION IS MURDER

THE KILLING OF DEFENCELESS INFANTS WITHIN THE WOMB IS MURDER

SUPPORT THE 8th AMENDMENT AND LET THE CHILDREN OF IRELAND LIVE!

The People of Ireland say NO to Abortion

THIS IS ABORTION
