“Albania: girl ratio ‘suffers’ in sex selective abortions,” AFP. Whenever you see a massive imbalance in the ratios between girls and boys, you can be sure there is something behind it—and that “something” is sex-selection abortion and infanticide. “World health agencies warn such imbalances can not only affect marriage and fertility patterns but could cause unrest among young men unable to find partners.” You can look to Asia to see how that’s going to work out in the future. What can the church do to be a blessing in this situation? Perhaps helping Albanians see the worth of a woman would help. You could start with “The Girl Effect,” for example.
