			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First there was the Pill, then Plan B (the &#8220;morning-after&#8221; pill). Now, meet Ella. <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/08/13/AR2010081305098_pf.html">Approved by the FDA today, this drug prevents pregnancies up to five days after intercourse. </a>Which also means, in lay terms, that it also acts as an abortifacient.</p>
<p>I wonder what&#8217;s next. So far, we have drugs that contracept/abort one day after intercourse and now one week after intercourse. Will the next drug be the &#8220;month-after&#8221; pill? How about the &#8220;year-after&#8221; pill?</p>
<p>And at this rate, why not just sterilization?</p>
<p>Seriously, if some women don&#8217;t want babies this badly, perhaps they shouldn&#8217;t have them.</p>
<p>Ever.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With one of the world&#8217;s lowest live-birth rates in the world (<a href="http://www.latimes.com/news/nation-and-world/la-fg-korea-abortion29-2009nov29,0,6923993.story">1.19%</a>, far below the replacement rate), South Korea now appears to be concerned, albeit financially, about the hundreds of thousands of illegal abortions being performed each year. From <a href="http://www.examiner.com/x-16044-Christianity--Politics-Examiner~y2009m11d29-Economic-instability-motivates-South-Korea-to-enforce-decades-old-abortion-ban">The Examiner</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p> In what seems to be an ironic turn of events, South Korea has discovered that a culture that is pro-abortion will eventually experience a shortage of young people to help care for the elderly. According to <a href="http://www.christiantelegraph.com/issue7804.html">The Christian Telegraph</a>, about 45 years ago the government claimed that there was an overpopulation problem, and so great effort went into encouraging contraception and abortion, even though abortion was technically illegal. </p>
<p>It has now been estimated by Korea’s ruling Grand National Party that, “the number of illegal abortions in Korea exceeds 1.5 million a year, or roughly 4,000 babies per day.” The article also stated that Korea has a population of about 48 million. Demographers are saying that a “demographic catastrophe” will result if incentives are not offered for larger families.</p></blockquote>
<p>Will other countries wake up?</p>
