For me the deformation in the understanding of abortion is born mainly in considering it a religious issue. The issue of abortion is not essentially religious. It is a human problem prior to any religious option. The abortion issue must be addressed scientifically. These are the words that Pope Francis wrote in a private letter to Argentina Father Pepe Di Paola, a priest who lives and works among the poorest people in the slums of Buenos Aires, and that Father Di Paola read on occasion of Argentina's abortion debate in 2020.
The first and fundamental human right is the right to life, a right without which no other right can be subsequently ensured to a human being; a right that not even our modern and advanced society is yet able to guarantee, especially to the most vulnerable and voiceless human being of all: the unborn baby. A future in which the right to life is respected and cherished begins with the scientific, ethical and religious education of the new generations on the true origin of any human life: not the birthday, but the moment of conception.
With every beat of my heart is a Christian non-fiction book for families that analyses and explains the topic of the sacredness and sanctity of human life from three complementary points of view: science, ethics and Christian faith. The book explores the journey of a baby in her mother's womb, from the very first moment of her existence (which, according to science, is the moment of conception) to the day of her birth, narrated from the baby's perspective. The child-friendly text and illustrations describe some special milestones in the development of the new life in the womb, like the very early appearance of nervous system and heartbeat, the growth of the baby's limbs, the beginning of her movements, and many more, together with the growth of that unique and deep bond of love between mother and baby, a bond that begins during pregnancy and that extends to the rest of life. All this is accompanied by significant quotations from the Holy Bible, to further explain the fact that children are a blessing, not a burden nor an inconvenience; to explain that every human life is created in the image of God and that, as human beings, we are called to love and to take care of each other, to defend and protect especially the most vulnerable and innocent ones, like the unborn babies and all the mothers who have been hurt and who need our help, so that they can feel morally and practically supported and choose life.
70% of the net profit from the sale of this book will be donated to local pregnancy resource centers.
