Chileans rally for life as government considers abortion

Chileans rally in downtown Santiago to show support for life Sept. 3. The South American nation is considering legislation to allow abortion in limited circumstances.

SANTIAGO, Chile – On a hot, sunny spring afternoon, 100,000 Christians from all walks of life traveled downtown to celebrate life. Santiago's pedestrian street, Paseo Bulnes, was packed tight with people from all over Chile. Many of them were neatly dressed: the men in slacks and dress shirts, the women in dresses looking as if they were going to church.
