Because it has been my observation that one of the supporting pillars of the culture of death (those kneejerk proponents of abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, cloning/ESCR) is a desire to avoid or alleviate human suffering at all cost (a woman with an unwanted pregnancy doesn’t want the “burden” of a child; sick people want cures [...]

As much as we want to save lives, as pro-lifers and Christians we should have a great desire to help save souls as well. One of my favorite quotes from John Paul II comes from his 2002 address to the U.S. Cardinals in response to the sexual abuse scandal: “we cannot forget the power of [...]

No doubt you’ve heard the horrifying news about Dr. Kermit Gosnell, the PA abortionist who has been charged with 8 counts of murder in the deaths of a woman – following a botched abortion at his office – along with the deaths of seven other babies who were born alive following illegal late-term abortions and [...]

Good grief! Last week ROSS DOUTHAT wrote a widely circulated column in the NY Times about the “unborn paradox.” How unborn life is so easily discarded on one hand and so desperately wanted on the other. Here we have a perfect example of this paradox in one couple. An Australian couple had the twin boys [...]

Jenny Senour Uebbing hits a home run with this post on the Duggars, MTV, teenage pregnancy and the value of every human life! It’s too good to give a teaser, just go read the whole thing. Jenny blogs at A Great Deception and can be read at Catholic Exchange’s Theology of the Body Channel. P.S. [...]

In a column for Catholic Exchange not too long ago, Dr. Mark Dendrickson commented on the increasing incidence of men killing their pregnant lovers and how the “culture of death” has progressed this far. The driving force: Another powerful anti-life undertow was generated by the “sexual revolution.” For many, the Judeo-Christian concept of sex for [...]

During what was supposed to be a presentation by the Canadian Centre for Bioethical Reform hosted by Choose Life McGill who hoped to encourage “respectful dialogue”, pro-abortion protesters “respectfully” make their case by shouting “LEAVE NOW!”, “we don’t wanna hear your side!” and “f**k off!” and then breaking out in children’s songs. This is video [...]

This is just evil: The U.N.’s Economic, Social and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) released a 98-page report in June offering a universal lesson plan for kids ranging in age from 5-18, an “informed approach to effective sex, relationships” and HIV education that they say is essential for “all young people.”… The UNESCO report, called “International Guidelines [...]

Rebecca Taylor makes an excellent point: Before we can trust the government with our health care, we need to trust the government to protect life from beginning to end. Right now we cannot do that. In order for health care to be fair and effective it must be dedicated to preserving all life, from conception [...]

The following video asks the logical question – if the murder of unborn children up to and including their very final stages of in-utero development remains legal, what will come next? Indeed some, like well respected and influential philosopher Peter Singer, already suggest that parents should have the right to decided within 28 days after [...]
