By Jonathon Van Maren January 14, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – It is a sad irony that I spotted the headline in the Irish Times, a newspaper which led the media charge in favor of legal abortion in Ireland: German man who survived abortion dies at aged 21. “Tim was not supposed to be born,” the Jan. 9 column, written by…
