   Protect unborn humans as well. Women have no rights to butcher the voiceless babies inside.

     An overly simplistic argument for a far too complicated issue.

       Elena, it is rather simple. We were all once fetus. Murder is murder. The only exception is when the pregnancy threatens the mother's life.

       Actually, it's not complicated at all. Either the embryo/fetus/child inside a woman is "alive" and "human" or it is not. If someone believes in the creative activity of God (whoever that is for you) then, that divine spark makes each and every child within a woman's womb a person, who should have rights. If, however, you do not believe in any sort of divine spark, no God, no afterlife, only "now," then it doesn't really matter whether or not the "growth" inside a woman is alive or not. It is merely a biological function, destined for ultimate destruction. It has no meaning, no purpose, and no future. Whether it lives or not is inconsequential. Bleak, but incontrovertible. I choose life.

   Perhaps it is simple for those with simple-minded tendencies. It's not a black and white issue, and proclaiming it as such is unreasonable. Everyone has their own story that you may not know.

     While waiting, the murder continues. Europeans forsook the Jews into the hands of Nazis in the exactly same way. The same reasoning. Refusing to rescue the voiceless when one has power to do so is a serious sin. God will judge every human.

   That makes a lot of sense, but do you think God's gonna have the time to judge ALL of us?

     Elena, the sense of time and the space dimentions are different from our world in the afterlife or on the Judgment Day. Mankind must stop exploiting and massacring the fellow humans im-me-diately.

   Mr. Gabriel, I suppose that in any sort of human trafficking, that one problem is why would anyone put their children in that situation? Not b/c they want to for the most part, but if it's poverty, then perhaps focus on the areas where that is taking place should be looked at for help with development. If there isn't any "resource" which is horrible to say, but thats how the traffickers view the kids and women, then the traffickers are out of business, then for the current situation, I would suggest looking at the country source for the trafficking organizations and try a diplomatic solution route. Perhaps

   Not only is he a wonderful musician, he is using his fame and his voice for his fellow man. Why are we commenting on protecting the unborn??? That is a totally different topic....if that is your cause, you are on the wrong blog. Use your passion for that topic to do what you feel is right...hope you don't just comment on it. Be involved. Follow Peter's example! Spread the love!

   I agree with Nadine. At least Peter Gabriel is on track with his cause. He is walking the walk, and isn't being all talk. Great cause. Great man.

   Wonder why Peter Gabriel pushes Occult symbolism , the Pyramid , one eye on his albums and Twiiter photo , he's an Illuminati puppet .I wouldn't trust ANYTHING this guy says or does , bcs there is always a Secret Agenda to these New World Order clowns .
   Go to Vigilant Citizen . com and go down the Rabbit Hole , most of which you see or hear isn't what it appears .... Google collaborates w/ Intelligence to track a lot of people and gives them a back door , so on the surface it may SEEM he's doing Good , but believe it , he has an agenda he's pushing for NWO .
