Host: Kathy Sinnott with guest
Rebecca Kiessling
In 2013 the Irish government legalised abortion in limited circumstances. Abortion advocates are determined to extend so called "reproductive rights" across Ireland. A major obstacle to this intent is written into the Irish Constitution which, in its Eight Amendment, affirms the life of the unborn. Arguments being made by abortion advocates include for cases of incest and rape. Kathy's guest Rebecca Kiessling from the Save The 1 organisation was conceived in rape and is an abortion survivor. Rebecca is visiting Ireland as a guest of Northern Ireland's pro- life group Precious Life. She recently spoke at Dublin conference "Protect and Cherish the 8th Amendment" hosted by the European Life network and the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children. Today we hear Rebecca's story.
