Brisbanes Archbishop Mark Coleridge has compared Queenslands proposed decriminalization of abortion to Nazi Germanys eugenics program. The priest is facing backlash over his comments from politicians pushing for reform.
The Catholic bishop drew comparisons to both China and Nazi Germany in his statements which described his fears that the proposed legislation would decriminalize late-term abortions.
The classic term for it is eugenics, he told the Courier Mail, referring to his fear that women would terminate fetuses with a disability. It is the kind of thing that went on in Nazi Germany.

Coleridge was concerned women could choose to end their pregnancies if they dont get the gender they desire, citing China where the government previously imposed a one child limit on parents, with many placing more value on a male fetus. The policy was phased out in 2015.
He also stated concerns that women worried about their figure would choose to get abortions, claiming that women use abortions to avoid gaining weight.
We know this is happening in China, he said. There are even women having abortions because they are worried about their figure. At that point you have a culture in trouble.
In Queensland, abortion is a crime and can only be carried out to prevent serious danger to the womans physical or mental health.

Proposals put forward by Cairns MP Rob Pyne aim to remove abortion from the states criminal code, and to set limits for when abortions can be carried out, as well as creating protected areas around abortion facilities.
One of the bills says a woman can have an abortion after 24 weeks only if two doctors agree that continuing the pregnancy would be too physically or mentally dangerous to the patient.
Coleridge also criticized fellow Catholics Labor premier Annastacia Palazczuk and deputy premier Jackie Trad, who have supported the proposal.
I think a government that is very strongly opposed to domestic violence but strongly in favor of greater access to abortion has a kind of a contradiction at its heart, he claimed. Its a contradiction and probably is hypocrisy.
Trad responded to the Archbishops criticism. With all due respect to Archbishop Coleridge, I dont need counselling about my position on abortion. I have been pro-choice all my adult life, she wrote.
She explained that although she is a Catholic, she simply disagrees with the Churchs views on a womans right to choose.
Its also sad that we have reached a new low in this debate when women who have abortions are compared to Nazis, she added.
