#BreakingNews over 7,000 at March for Life in Germany including 4 Bishops - Pro-Life movement gains Strength!


About 7500 people took part in the 13th March for the life in Berlin. 
7,500 participants, four Catholic bishops during the march for life
Berliner Archbishop Koch sent a greeting: protesters advocate a "truly democratic concern" that the protection of unborn life is wrongly placed in the right-hand corner - the Green circles demonstrated -
The non-partisan and ecumenical event was organized by the Federal Association of Life Law. Under the motto "Protect the most vulnerable, yes to every child, end selection and abortion" the participants marched through Berlin. Left circles from the Greens (Volker Beck), the "Left" and the SPD called for a counter-demonstration. The chairman of the Federal Association of Life Law, Alexandra Linder, reminded us at the kick-off event that, according to World Health Organization, around 40 million children are abducted annually, including at least 100,000 unborn children in Germany. Animal rights activists were rightly insisting that high-quality cattle should not be slaughtered.

The bishop of Regensburg, Rudolf Voderholzer, called for the ecumenical final worship service to give a voice to those who can not yet express their self-determination right. For Voderholzer it was an "important ecumenical hope sign" that Catholics and Protestants used to work together for this. The "obscenity of the protest" of the anti-demonstrators is a testament to the fact that the life-lawyers had something important to say and to protect something sacred. It was "irrational arbitrariness" that after the birth, great efforts were made for the inclusion of disabled people, but before the birth a ruthless "exclusion and selection" took place.

Four Catholic bishops participated in the demonstration: Bishop Voderholzer, the auxiliary bishops Matthias Heinrich (Berlin), Hubert Berenbrinker (Paderborn) and Florian Wörner (Augsburg). The Archbishop of Berlin, Heiner Koch himself, did not participate, but sent a greeting and said that the demonstrators used a "truly democratic concern". According to Koch, the protection of the unborn life was placed wrongly in the right corner. For him, it was necessary to work for unborn life as well as for persecuted and refugees. Almost no support was provided by the Protestant church. Only the bishop in the Sprengel Mecklenburg and Pomerania of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in northern Germany, Hans-Jürgen Abromeit (Greifswald), sent a greeting
