At Least Some Culture of Life in Korea

Re: Religious leaders pray for the abolition of the death penalty

I applaud the stance these religious leaders have taken, but at the same time cannot understand why there is not more discussion of abortion in Korea. It's technically illegal here, but the law is not enforced. There are about the same number (or maybe more) of abortions per annun in South Korea as there are in the United States, a country with six times the population and where the atrocity is legally sanctioned. Sadly, I've heard very little about abortion in Korea, even from Catholics.
