Human life does not begin at birth. Hopefully we can all agree on that by now. But the English language hasn’t caught up to the science. We’ve written before about the problem with phrases like “born leader,” “a sucker born every minute,” etc. We decided it’s time to expand that conversation with the ultimate conversation-starter: […]
[Today’s guest post by Roni Cairns is part of our paid blogging program. An earlier version of this piece appeared on her personal blog.] Have you ever been told that a woman will lose all of her rights and become a second-class person, inferior, or subhuman if she cannot obtain a legal abortion?

The New York Times said: The requirement that doctors […]
Just a few notes about the above graphic (which I encourage you to share on facebook). This is just a sampling of the abortionists and abortion facilities that are known to have endangered women, as evidenced by health code violations, repeated ambulance calls, and medical malpractice lawsuits.
