Mexico City, Mexico, Feb 24, 2010 / 17:07 pm
Patricia Lopez Macera, regional director of a women's center in Cancun, noted in a statement on Mexican radio that the constitutional reforms implemented by 18 of the country's states to protect the unborn are not anti-woman, but are in full support of human life.
Lopez Macera clarified that the reforms should not be understood as criminalization, but instead as guaranteeing the right to life from conception to natural death.
She added that just as Mexico's government has included the word “secular” in its constitution, so also have local legislatures granted protection to the lives of the unborn.
