Todd Frazier’s “Best Friend and Greatest Batboy”
Last Thursday’s two-run homer by Cincinnati Reds third baseman Todd Frazier was one of the most heartwarming moments of this MLB season so far. To quote Wesley Smith: “The pernicious search and destroy mission to wipe people with Down off of the planet through eugenic abortion is taking so much love out of the world.” Just look at the pure, … Read More
Gosnell: It’s Not Just a Story About Abortion
For a few weeks now, many people have been asking why there has been insufficient coverage of the trial of “House of Horrors” abortionist Kermitt Gosnell by the “liberal media.” The obvious conclusion is that they want to protect abortion rights, but, as Daniel Greenfield notes, this is not just a story about abortion. The issue isn’t as simple as … Read More
Life and Marriage Go Hand-in-Hand
A few quick thoughts based on what I’ve heard from some young, self proclaimed Catholic pro-life advocates as the Supreme Court heard a few landmark cases involving same-sex marriage. Namely, pledging their support for “marriage equality” and, when pressed, suggesting that it does not and should not have anything to do with abortion or the pro-life movement.

Abortion is Not the Only Pro-Life Battle Before Us
Students for Life of America president Kristan Hawkins writes at HLI’s Truth and Charity Forum: I’m not saying to abandon the use of the term “pro-life” altogether, but we must realize that the term “pro-life” allows the person using it to give it their own definition.

Winning the Hand You’re Dealt
It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision. -Helen Keller In a world where the quality of human life is measured by one’s physical or mental capabilities — a world that grants two otherwise healthy men their request for voluntary euthanasia because they might go blind…someday — the joyful witness of people like Nick Vujicic is invaluable. … Read More
President Obama Ironically Defends the Lives of Children
This really is a clever little promo. Last month, after the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary school in Newtown, CT, President Obama, Mr. Abortion, himself, unwittingly gave probably one of the best pro-life statements by any president in modern history. Let’s pray that someday he pays attention to even his own words.
UK IFV Numbers: 93% of All Embryos Created Never Used to Generate Pregnancy
For the past couple of years I’ve really been harping on what I consider the human rights disaster that is IVF. This is (one of the many reasons) why. Via the UK Telagraph: Official statistics show that almost half of embryos used to help a women conceive through in vitro fertilisation were thrown away during or after the process. The … Read More
