Day11: Museum of Abortion

….The largest abortion provider in Vienna, Austria, also serves as the site of the Museum of Abortion and Contraception.

….”Don’t abort your trip to (to Vienna) without a visit…” reads a comment on a prominent travel review website.

That cavalier remark is further proof that only one side of the abortion debate takes abortion seriously.

In fact, the 40 Days for Life team in Vienna takes abortion so seriously that they’re standing vigil 24 hours a day.

“We shall not budge for 40 Days and 40 nights!” Vienna leader Thomas exhorted his volunteers.

“What on earth are you doing there in the night?! Does that even help?” he continued. “Yes, I really believe so.”

Thomas and his team have reason to believe. They have already seen a 40 Days for Life campaign help close an abortion facility in Vienna.
