Archidiecezja warszawska reacts to abortion pill vending machine

The Warsaw Archdiocese issued a statement on October 2 opposing a machine that dispenses pills used for medical abortions. The device, referred to by organizers as an "abortomat," was presented on September 29 at 9 Wiejska Street.

The machine, which resembles a parcel locker with 22 compartments, was launched by the organizations Women Help Women and the Aborcyjny Dream Team. To use the device, individuals must first contact the organization to complete a consultation process, after which they receive a unique code to open a specific compartment containing the medication.

In its statement, the Archdiocese's Family Ministry office reaffirmed the Church's position on protecting human life from conception. The ministry stated that every human life deserves protection from the beginning and that a unique person develops from the moment of conception. The office expressed strong opposition to actions that facilitate ending the life of a conceived child.
