I received the following email this morning from a strong pro-life defender. (Thanks, Richard!) Let us pray for the people of Hungary who retain their sanity in an insane world:
Hungary just adopted a new constitution protecting marriage and the right to life from conception on.
Some key bits from the newly passed Constitution:
- We are proud that one thousand years ago our king, Saint Stephen, based the Hungarian State on solid foundations, and made our country a part of Christian Europe.
- We acknowledge the role Christianity has played in preserving our nation. We respect all our country's religious traditions.
Article K
(1) Hungary shall protect the institution of marriage, understood to be the conjugal union of a man and a woman based on their independent consent; Hungary shall also protect the institution of the family, which it recognizes as the basis for survival of the nation.
(2) Hungary shall promote the commitment to have and raise children.
Article II
Human dignity shall be inviolable. Everyone shall have the right to life and human dignity; the life of the foetus shall be protected from the moment of conception.
May God pour out His blessings on Hungary to show the rest of the world that love of truth and life brings the bounty of the Lord. May their quivers be full and all the bounty of the Lord be poured to overflowing into their laps! We can expect gnashing of teeth from all the usual suspects accusing Hungary of being a backwater nation of bigots who deny women's "reproductive rights" and the "human right" to buggery. St. Michael the Archangel, protect them!
I wished I spoke Hungarian. I think I would move there. Our political races have become a circus, and very few are serious about what is really destroying the United States -- abortion and immorality. God bless the Hungarians!
