National Sanctity of Human Life Day, March for Life, and WTF?!?!?!

The few weeks are going to be really big in the pro-life movement. Really big as in HUGE!

Today (Sunday the 18th), is the National Sanctity of Human Life Day, as declared by President George W. Bush. Yay, Bush! For all the idiotic things he's done in office, I'm glad he did this the other day.  Read More »

Who Anti-Abortion Laws REALLY hurt: Pregnant Women Carrying to Term!

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •  

As you guys probably know already, I'm pro-choice. I think abortion is disgusting and should be discouraged, certainly. But to ban it all together is counter-productive to the pro-life goal: more women would die due to anti-abortion laws because of abortions being done by unqualified doctors, increasing deaths among both fetuses AND women alike.  Read More »

Praying at an Abortion Facility

In Keenan's recent post, we were encouraged to list the "new things" we'd done over the past year. One thing I mentioned was praying at an abortion facility and watching girls walk in. She asked me about this, so I thought I'd post this essay that I wrote for a person or event that changed my life that I had to write for my Christendom application.  Read More »

This is purely a linguistic question here. I definitely don't want to open a can of slimy earth-dwelling invertebrates here by bringing up the abortion debate. I just thought I'd share this observation on the terminology.  Read More »

Abortion is FUN???

The other day I was looking at pro-life/pro-choice pictures via Google Image for my FOCA Blog post. While searching, I came across a picture of people with a sign that said "Keep Abortion Safe, Legal and Fun".  Read More »

Why NOT a baby?

Tagged:  •    •    •  

Many people provide an argument that the child in the womb is not really a child. They claim that because the “thing” in the womb is not a human person, then the mother carrying the “thing” has every right to destroy “it.” However, I would like to know why these people do not think that the baby in the womb is really a baby.  Read More »

40 Days for Life: A Closing

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •  

Today marks Day 40 in the 40 Days for Life. I can't believe the time has passed so quickly! This also means that Election Day is only two days away (what a heart-lurching thought!). The incredible success the 40 Days for Life has had is truly remarkable and I am in awe of God's grace in this whole matter.  Read More »
