On Wednesday Rudy Giuliani told CNN that he still supports public funding of abortion because: “Ultimately, it’s a constitutional right, and therefore if it’s a constitutional right, ultimately, even if you do it on a state by state basis, you have to make sure people are protected.” So apparently he also thinks that abortion is a constitutional right, which suggests … Read More
Society’s View of Large Families
This week Our Sunday Visitor has an article about large families, something that our culture doesn’t understand. OSV editor Gerald Korson offered his opinion of society’s view of large families in a seperate column of the paper and I found it very amusing. Here is a bit of it: Here’s how society’s perception of family size appears from our side … Read More
Pro-Life T-Shirt Day is Approaching
Just a reminder that National Pro-Life T-Shirt Day is April 24. If you want to participate it would be a good idea to order the shirts soon, if you haven’t done so already. I just ordered mine tonight! The T-Shirt Day website has a lot of helpful information for anyone wishing to wear it at a public school including a … Read More
John Paul II and the Culture of Life
The late great John Paul II passed away two years ago this evening. My family and I had the very fortunate opportunity to greet the late pontiff in Feb. of 2001. Once we found out that handicapped people, people in wheelchairs, automatically get to go up and greet the pope after his general audience we couldn’t get to Rome fast … Read More
Love Life, Live Life, and Honor Terri Schiavo
Yesterday marked two years since Terri Schiavo was starved to death (I know, I’m really up on things, huh?) for having a life not worthy of living. I got very personally involved with the Schiavo case in my own little corner of the world. I don’t know how many emails I sent out during the entire horrific ordeal urging people … Read More
Exposing the Fruitless Deeds of Darkness
I really can’t tell you what I’m feeling right now. I was checking my email from the past few days and I came across an email from Priests for Life. Normally I don’t read these emails right away, but this headline caught my attention: ‘The Applause From Hell” Ok, I thought, what’s Fr. Frank got for us this time. What … Read More
Contraception Prevents Abortion, Doesn’t It?
Not so as Fr. Euteneuer explains in the first of a series of video emails explaining common contraception msiconceptions. As I said in the comments section of my previous post on this subject, the Sean Hannity contraception flap is not just about Sean and Fr. E. knows it. That is what prompted this video series. As he mentioned in on … Read More
A Small Victory and Big Thank You to Rep. Cooper
I saw the President of Missouri Right to Life at Mass this morning and she informed me that HJR 11, the resolution to put a cloning ban on the Missouri ballot in ’08, passed out of committee, where it has been stuck for a number of weeks. Honestly I did not think there was much hope for that to happen … Read More
Keep This Woman – and Her Child – In Your Prayers Today!
Last week I told you about this woman who had scheduled an abortion and was having what she called a “meltdown” about it. She was feeling guilty already because she fully realized that she was carrying a child and that she was, in fact, going to kill it. Today is the day she scheduled her abortion, so please say some … Read More
Feinstein-Hatch Fiasco
Two weeks ago I told you about the bogus “cloning ban” that Senators Dianne Feinstein and Orin Hatch introduced, the craftily worded Cloning Ban and Stem Cell Protection Act. Today Wesley Smith weighs in on the Daily Standard. This bill eerily reminds me of Amendment 2, mostly in the way that it falsely defines human cloning as the implantation of … Read More
