You do seem to be missing a point here, and a very important one . You are not aware of the consequences of the abortion, and that is why you so lightly throw away your catholic cloak and agree on the girl killing the child.
This is still a murder, and a most hideous one - because done to those who cannot defend. There is no differcence in killing a child that has been just born or the one that is still inside the mother's womb. The infant may have only few days or weeks, but it is a human being in the full sense. It has a body, a consciousness and a soul is already present in this tiny vessel. While performing abortion ,the doctor uses a metal tongs to literally, crash the body of the child. It is the same as smashing a newbord child to pieces, dismembering in a brutal way to kill it. There is little differcence if the baby is still inside the mother or outside her, the genocide is the same. Some people may think that this tiny cluster of flesh in the mother's womb is 'less than a human' so it can be killed with no responsibility. They are either unaware or terribly ignorant ( I pray you are the first).
The abortion will not ease the burden of the girl. I don't know if you ever happened to know someone who had commited abortion, but every woman that did it had a more or less serious mental problems afterwards. Even in countries like Japan, where no on tells that it is a sin and a serious moral crime, the women who were subject to it, semed mentally devastated. People change after it, they are never the same again. Some may extinguish the remorse and pretend that there was nothing wrong with that, but even the most insensitive ones will feel the disturbance lingering within them and will never fully regain their former serenity.
Most importantly, the girl can give birth to the child and leave it at the hospital if she does not want it or if she can't afford to rear it. There are people who would take care of it instead or even adopt it right away. You should know that.
As for the hype around the case, it may sound a bit weird, because of the way that the media put it. However I am glad that Poland had adopted such stance toward the issue of abortion. In a country which has no respect for life there can be no peace, nor prosperity. Take for instance the liberal west or despotic China, at first sight they may seem powerful and convenient, but the truth is that their citizens are not by any way 'happier' beings. The media may do their best to ridicule the church, but you have your own mind - you can search for information, try to really understand the issue and then decide, what is the righteous choice.
As for me, when I was younger I didn't see anything against abortion and could not understand why some people oppose it so ardently. Now that I have acquired many information and enlarged my knowledge about faith, and why it forbids abortion ( what are the real consequences behind it) I realised how deadly the ignorance can be while dealing with such matter like abortion. It trembles me how lightly did I treat this matter before; when I was not really knowing what I was advocating.
