Nine-year-old ‘incest victim’ aborts twins

A nine-year-old girl who was carrying twins, allegedly after being raped by her stepfather, has undergone an abortion despite complaints from Brazil’s Catholic Church. Police said the stepfather has been jailed since last week. Abortion is illegal in Brazil, but judges can make exceptions if the mother’s life is in danger or if the foetus has no chance of survival. Fatima Maia, director of the public university hospital where the abortion was performed, said the 15-week-old pregnancy posed a serious risk to the 36-kilogram girl. “She is very small. Her uterus doesn’t have the ability to hold one, let alone two, children,” Ms Maia told the Jornal do Brasil newspaper. But Marcio Miranda, a lawyer for the Archdiocese of Olinda and Recife in north-eastern Brazil, said the girl should have carried the twins to term and had a caesarean section. “It’s the law of God: do not kill. We consider this murder,” Ms Miranda said in comments reported by O Globo. Calls to Ms Miranda were not returned.

Brazil is home to more Catholics than any other nation.

Translation: “Brazil is home to more complete fucking idiots than any other nation.”

    Brazil has much less “complete fucking idiots” than USA for sure…
    Please don’t act as the theists that read something without reasoning what they read and start spread smells for everyone…

  2. Brooklyn Boy:

    There’s one part of the story that you left out.

    The archbishop has called for the excommunication of the doctors who performed the procedure that probably saved this poor little girl’s life. Funny, no mention of excommunication for the guy who raped her in the first place. But the church has no real problem with raping children. If they did, they’d have to admit that most of their staff would be sitting right by the fire in the never ending BBQ after they kicked off.

  3. fritzy:

    See, the problem is, the girl didn’t cry loud enough while being raped, so that the people inside the gates of the city could hear her. So really, Brazil is actually being quite generous to her by not stoning her to death for losing her virginity out of wedlock. She should feel grateful.

  4. another reason to be atheist:

    This is yet another reason I am atheist. The poor girl is 9 years old and it is surely a health risk. And also, how do they expect a 9 year old to care for 2 small children? They also said that they wanted her to carry the fetusus to term and have them by c-section. WTF?

  5. Stardust:

    I spot another looney here! Brazilian in the first comment said,

    Please don’t act as the theists that read something without reasoning what they read and start spread smells for everyone…

    “without reasoning what they read”???? The point of the story is obvious! The delusional god believers wanted a little girl to carry twins to full term even though it would not be safe to do so, and even after the trama of being raped by her stepfather!

    start spread smells for everyone

    WTF does this mean?

  6. ChuckA:

    ^ Stardust?…
    Somehow…(yeah, how utterly mysterious?)…the Brazilian comment reminds me of a variation of Zero Mostel’s aside comment (to the audience) in the original “The Producers”:
    “They come here…they all come here…
    how do they find “US”? ;)
    OK…just for (another Looney-tunes Friday) reference [at 0;25/9:59 of this clip]:

    Soooo…Have we just spotted another Looney? “My…how difficult, huh?”
    And Bob?…
    stop pointing at ME…dammit!

  7. Tommykey:

    It’s crazy things like this that inspired my post “Pray For Compulsory Abortion.”

  8. Stardust:

    Sarah Palin is probably upset about this and would side with those gob botherers who say that the girl should have kept those babies to term, because they are gob’s blessings, you know.

    But Marcio Miranda, a lawyer for the Archdiocese of Olinda and Recife in north-eastern Brazil, said the girl should have carried the twins to term and had a caesarean section.

    That is one of the cruelest suggestions I have ever heard. The little girl has been severely traumatized as it is with being raped by her own stepfather, and then they want her to go through a dangerous pregnancy that would endanger her own health and have a c-section on top of it which would leave her literally scarred for life?

  9. jimmer:

    And no mention at all as to How sick and disturbing it is that a 9 year old girl was raped. Proof that “Religion Poisons Everything”. In a nation that yields to this religious power and control. It is no wonder at all as to how demeaning it must be for all involved in saving this young girls life.

    Previously posted here at GIFS about why we atheists keep talking about god. If people know that it is OK to not believe then maybe they will have the courage to live in and around such assholes. And to live without the blessing of the church as an example of how the church has become irrelevant.

    Once again the church has not let me down. They have followed through on the most incidious lie that can be. A 9 year old girl should give birth to a rapists babies. It is also clear that the church does not want to address the real issue of rape. The church has it’s own pedophiles to deal with and harsh treatment is not included. I have read comments regarding this that made claims that it was possible that the girl was NOT raped. And through some convoluted reasoning came up with that possibility. I think that is the same convoluted reasoning that the church and all pedophiles use to reliquish the real resposibility of this incident. As well as all incidents regarding rape and sex with children.

    It really is fucking pathetic to think that someone could be so devoid of humanity. And that they would force this girl to carry the babies to term.

  10. Aerik:

    You missed something.

    “allegedly raped” is a bullshit phrase.

    She’s nine years old. Fucking NINE!

    She cannot consent. Any and all sex with her is rape. PERIOD

  11. 60613:

    This stooopidity is right up there with squelching the distribution of condoms or clean syringes to prevent the spread of AIDS… although even more heinous because it’s a known human, a known life, a known child. The planet would be *SO* far better off without this religious bull shit.

  12. Lynda:

    Chuck,
    Thank goodness! I thought it was pointing at ME. Up here in Canada we have a magazine with a “find the loonie” challenge in it where one looks for a $1 coin (our one dollar coin is nick-named the “loonie” for those who didn’t know) somewhere in the photos in the magazine.

    Aerik,
    Exactly! She cannot consent. Any and all sex with her is rape. PERIOD (Although the “allegedly” could be referring to the “stepfather” part of the crime. She may have been raped by someone else.)

    Given the fact that the Brazilian population is mostly Catholic, the little girl would have likely suffered all sorts of emotional and verbal abuse from self-righteous morons had she been forced to carry the twins full term. She would have been called all sorts of names and likely taunted by her school mates for being an unwed mother. And her twins would be “bastards”, too, forced to live with that hanging over their heads for the rest of their lives. What a nutty bunch!

    “…It’s the law of God: do not kill. We consider this murder,” Ms Miranda said in comments reported by O Globo…”
    [I was joking, somewhat, in my above comment; but this kind of shit deserves AT LEAST a mini-rant...mainly directed, of course, to any possible trolls, yada, yada.]:
    And what about all the common miscarriages which happen in almost every family…does that mean your non-existent, psychopathic “God” is a fucking hypocritical murderer, too?
    Of course “He” is!!! The old…”Read your fucking Bibles!…CLOSELY!!!”…idiots!
    And what about all the fucking wars, that have ALWAYS been…and continue to be…directly connected with all the vicious, bullshit, god beliefs? What absolute morons that, through their continuous brainwashing lies, have been controlling this sick, insanely evolving world for WAY, WAY, too long!

    What fucking idiots people are, as a result of all the superstitious bullshit they’ve been fed since birth.
    I grew up with all the Catholic brainwashed, psycho-babble; and I’m still somewhat amazed that I ACTUALLY managed to discard the insanity, somewhere back in the late 1960s. Not so, with many of my surviving peers!

    As y’all know, the Catholics get SO cozy with the ultra-wingnut, fundie Protestants; especially, on the abortion issue.
    And, as I’ve stated before on GifS; the abortion debate is one of my pet peeve issues.
    Pardon me, if I post…again…one of my favorite ffrf (Freedom From Religion Foundation) links RE that…
    “What Does The Bible Say About Abortion”:
    http://ffrf.org/nontracts/abortion.php

    Of course this ALSO relates to all the insanity that continues to swirl around the “human embryonic stem cell research” issue; which is in the news today RE Obama’s reversal of (utlra-idiot) Bush’s 8 years of moronic tyranny!
    I know…so much to say about this stuff…endless zama, zama.
    AARGH!!!

  14. Aerik:

    If the “allegedly” on refers to the identity of the rapist, then anybody and everybody should instead say “the 9 year girl was raped — allegedly by her stepfather — …”

    But no. We’re so used to blaming rape victims, that this shit passes without notice.

    Also they put scare quotes around the type of victim she is, too. ‘incest victim’ — as if there is any chance whatsoever she’s not, in obvious fact, a victim.

  15. jimmer:

    President Lula of Brazil sides with the medical professionals who helped this young girl.
    Article here http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7929712.stm
    A good sign that the president who is Catholic has spoken out against the Church in this matter.

  16. Lynda:

    In the article posted by jimmer we read that the mother and doctors are to be excommunicated, yet the stepfather who has done a runner is not included in the church’s disciplinary action. Figures. Those brainless black-robed bum wipes will no doubt provide refuge and sanctuary to the pedophile while they make life for the mother even more difficult. So very typical.

  17. RichVR:

    With all due respect. I am willing to agree with brazilian @1. Because of the relative sizes of each nation, I’d guess that the USA has more fucking idiots.

    But…

    I’d also hazard to guess that Brazil has a much higher CONCENTRATION of fucking idiots due to the overall number of religious fuckwits residing there. Like brazilian him/herself.

  18. jimmer:

    Lynda
    The Vatican agrees with the brazilian decision. Apparently it is far worse to have an abortiion than it is to rape a 6-9 year old. The rapist is in protective custody for his own safety. More at Huffington post.

    This seems so bizarre to me. Why is the church so determined to stop contraception and abortion but refuse to aid in stopping war and violence? In other words. Why haven’t they excommunicated all of the Bush admin who voted to invade Iraq based on lies?

  19. RichVR:

    Jimmer: Because none of the Bush bunch are Catlicks. The RC church doesn’t consider the Bushies to be christians in the first place. The RC church are “the only true christians”. They only excommunicate their own kind. If you’re an RC drone, it’s kind of special to be thrown out of that specific delusional mind set. They only fuck their own, see? If you don’t believe that the Pope has a direct line to the big fuckup in the sky, you’re not worth the trouble. Thus the big insult of the dark ages:

    Papist. If you were Roman Catholic you were a Papist back then. Which was about the same as a Jew or a Muslim. I’d be willing to bet that things haven’t changed that much in the hierarchy of either bunch of fuckwits since then. Not Catholic=not “a true christian”.

    Truel Scotsmen everywhere applaud!

    That last comment does not apply Scotsmen. It applys to this- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman

  20. jimmer:

    Rich
    I understand your position. What I am refering to was on a bigger scale. The entire Senate has Catlicks who voted for war. Also there are many catlicks in the government who shun the churches teachings and make up their own. All along the church does nothing. When was the last time you heard of anyone in the U. S, being excommunicated?

    The rules are applied on an as needed basis but usually only in a place where the RC has Power and Control in large quantities. None such power in the good ol U.S. I’m afraid. But plenty in Brazil and other countries. And only it seems when they the church can get away with it and make an example of someone or other.

    I feel for this poor girl knowing how this has developed and how she will be made to feel responsible in some way for causing so much trouble. Unless that is she has support from people who reject the superstitious church’s decision.

  21. ChuckA:

    ^ Hmmm, RichVR?…
    Your Wiki link makes me wonder if the term “draft”…as in the military use of the term…started with the “True Scotsman” concept…ala kilt wearing, of course.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_Scotsman
    A rather chilling idea, I must say! Or maybe…
    “I suddenly shrivel (up) at the notion of actually wearing one.”…?

    “Up-skirt video is one thing…but, Up-kilt?”
    Yikes!
    What’s that?…It’s just, kinda…”bringing new wrinkles to old wrangling”? ;)

    [I didn't quite realize, til today, checking on that subject, that the people at Wikipedia had such a great sense of humor.]

  22. Sergio:

    The fact that the Catholic Church (as a global institution) has this opinion about abortion doesn’t mean all catholics share it.

    I’m brazilian and atheist, but have loads of friends that are catholic and they were ALL against the CC’s opinion.

    Of course I’m sorry about what happend to the girl but this episode was good in a sense that it makes the church loose some more followers and bit more of its “power”.


    “Brazil is home to more complete fucking idiots than any other nation.”

    And as a reply to this “translation”, a I would say that “stupid people make stupid comments”. And that applies to brazilians, americans or any other nationality.
