The Center for Bioethical Reform says “Most of the people who are working to kill babies are full-time, paid professionals while most of the people working to save them are part-time, amateur volunteers.” There’s something to that. If you’re a committed pro-life advocate who wants to do more, consider a full-time job in the movement! […]
Earlier this week my history class discussed the modern feminist movement. From my lecture notes: “In 1970 NOW launched major action: Women’s Strike For Equality. This was across the US and the demands were equal pay for equal work, universal child care and the legalization of abortion. ‘We are the 51% minority.’ Even this moderate agenda was polarizing. Counter protest: men […]
Normally I’d be providing a midweek news roundup, probably talking about the new abortion legislation in Kansas or the bill that just sent to committee regarding sonograms in Texas. Instead, today I leave you with an excerpt from a New York Times article entitled, “A Campaign Against Girls in India.” Gender-selective abortion in becoming a […]
China has announced a plan to modify its one-child policy by 2015, allowing families to give birth to two children. Pro-lifers have long criticized the one-child policy as a violation of human rights. Pro-life leaders are rightfully skeptical that a two-child policy will be much better.

As soon as Planned Parenthood keeps unborn children alive, we’ll be happy to return the favor!
Budget negotiations are intensifying; ABC News is calling today “Shutdown D-Day.” Taxpayer funding for scandal-plagued Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, is a huge sticking point. Some pro-abortion Democrats have signaled that they would rather see a government shutdown than end funding for Planned Parenthood. Democrats for Life president Kristen Day cautioned that such […]
Today is World Health Day. To mark the occassion, The A Word has suggested that pro-life blogs write on the theme “Abortion Is Not Health Care.” The central objections to abortion are based upon the human rights of the unborn child, as well they should be. This means that secondary arguments are often overlooked; one […]
Did someone order a midweek news roundup today? No? Well here’s one anyway. Domestic News: A bill in Montana which would have prevented federal / state money for the recent health care reform act’s health care exchanges to be used for abortions was vetoed by Governor Brian Schweitzer (D). Schweitzer said that “…the measure violates […]
I’ve decided to write about my current personal hero, Rachel Smith. You might have seen her video on Jill Stanek or Stand for Life. She has personally saved at least forty lives, that she knows of, in the last five months. You should listen to her story, I’m sure I’ll get some of the details […]
In my experience one of the most frequently debated subjects within the abortion debate is the accuracy of the “pro-life” and “pro-choice” labels. Instead of arguing about issues that really matter–the definition of personhood, the effects of restricting abortion–people bicker about the technicality of labels. I’d like to get this out of the way. Some […]
