Reports say that in 2023 there were approximately 73 million abortions performed globally. This represents the loss of potential lives whose contribution to society would have benefited many in a myriad of ways, including contribution to cultural diversity, workforce and innovation. The global tally of intentional abortions reminds us of the legal factors influencing the occurrence, approachability, and provision of abortion services. In the complex global debate on the sanctity of life and women’s autonomy, critical roles emerge in the decision-making process regarding abortion.

TST’s website states that TST is a religious organization that provides abortion health care. Mr. Mammen said that providing a service to abort babies has nothing to do with religion or health care.

Mr. Mammen said that since the beginning of time, medical care has never been about killing anything. The Hippocratic Oath for doctors includes doing no harm. This is not only an issue about the fetus but also an issue about women.

He said that most women who’ve gone through abortions have experienced trauma years later, and it’s not short-term trauma; it’s long-term trauma. In fact, there are entire counseling organizations dedicated to counseling women who are suffering post-traumatic stress from an abortion way back in their youth.

Biblical and ancient history describes abominable practices and unfathomable rituals that were dedicated to the idol gods Molech and Baal. Rituals to these gods required live sacrifices of children. Innocent, defenseless children were put into fiery furnaces and burned to death as a sacrifice to the gods. Any moral person would view these grotesque ancient rituals as savage and inhumane. Regrettably, monstrous forms of child sacrifice continue to this very day.
