The unanimous position of value- and life-protecting Christians is that the new rule will save human lives and may make many people realize that not a "cell lump" grows in the mother's womb. The pastors interviewed by our newspaper say that we must share the value of life together, regardless of religious beliefs. Overview of the Mandiner.
"Heartbeats beat for mothers, not against them," Fülöp Kocsis began in his social media post the other day. The Greek Catholic archbishop emphasized that the new decree aims to help mothers' decision, not to make it difficult, because the decision is for life, not just to answer a current situation.
According to the wording of the Catholic high priest, "these little voices carry the message of a lifetime. Silencing them won't make anything better." According to Fülöp Kocsis, if we silence the sound of the heartbeat from expectant mothers, "we are only postponing the confrontation: there was a life...". He added: we will deceive mothers and fathers, those facing a serious decision, if we hide the truth from them. "It may seem easier at the moment to take life, but death also has consequences. Those who close their eyes and cover their ears will not make a better decision. Hearing the sounds of the heart can open the eyes," said the Greek Catholic archbishop, who concluded his thoughts with:
we were born to live, not to share death.
"The changed legal environment actually stipulates that all mothers must meet their own living children at least once," Molnár Ambrus assesses the situation in a statement to Mandiner. According to the reformed minister, the amendment gives the pregnant woman a chance to mentally reach the state her body is in, that is, to become a mother. Apart from it, the fetus also gets a chance so that its real vital signs can no longer be denied, thus helping to make a decision that contributes to preserving its life. "The new rule makes human life audible and visible in its most vulnerable, most fragile state, requiring the greatest care and protection," says the priest.
Regarding the reactions of liberal opinion makers
Ambrus Molnár points out that although many people want to distort, smear, and present the decree as oppression, contrary to all false rumors, it is not about coercion, but about the meeting between the most basic human unit, the parent and the child. Let's listen to the little one too!
"Finally, the child in the womb can also hear its voice, its most beautiful voice, the voice of the heart," says Máté Kiss. The evangelical pastor is grateful for the step, but he sees that all this is not enough, because it is very important that we are able to see the issue in its complexity. He believes that conscious biblical teaching on sexuality and the appearance of a helping, loving person in a crisis situation can be an important factor. Similarly, he considers it important to represent the adoption system much more prominently on the subject.
The pastor thinks
abortion is the biggest lie precisely because it suggests that not having the unwanted child would provide a solution for the mother and family in crisis.
Let life be our common value! I see the power of this decree precisely in this, that through the sound of the heart the conceived child says, I am alive. I am also a living person"
he says. She advises those living with an unwanted pregnancy to visit a baby, enjoy life and, after hearing their own child's heartbeat, give way to life. "After that, they should look for a supportive, loving person, community, or church who can really help them get out of the crisis," asks the evangelical minister.
