I learned from a friend in Mauritius that pro-abortion forces had attempted last year to legalize the killing of babies in the womb (i.e., abortion). However, thanks to a coalition of Catholics, Hindus, and Muslims, this heinous, barbaric, and murderous practice remains illegal. And yet ...
Isn't it ironic that it took such a coalition to maintain the status quo? Granted 49 percent of Mauritians are Hindu and 16 percent Muslim (27 percent are Catholic and 0.5 percent Protestant). But it seems worth noting that the very same people who in their home countries persecute and murder us Christians have helped us maintain the sanctity of life on this tiny island nation.
In the end, though, who cares? The sanctity of life was maintained in this remote corner of the world, and praise God for it.
