Anti-abortion campaigners say they want to ensure any new legislation brought forward concerning the practice doesn't lead to 'abortion on demand'.
Last week the Humanity and Equality in Abortion Reform group launched an online petition calling for people to lobby the Manx government to better protect unborn children.
HEAR claims laws need to better recognise the rights of the baby and avoid the mistakes made in the UK when legislation was changed there:
The petition has been set up using the global CitizenGo platform which promotes Christian causes - many have since accused it of being misleading; a claim the group denies.
It's been signed thousands of times - HEAR spokeswoman Sue Richardson says she's pleased people are supporting the campaign from further afield:
