Janet LaRue has a great column highlighting the fantasy and the false hope perpetuated by ESC research advocates. Proponents of ESCR consider acceptable the destruction of human embryos after we extract their cells. Unlike Munchkinland, however, there are no talking embryos to prick a conscience. ESCR fans should heed the signpost outside the Haunted Forest on the way to the … Read More
The White House has released a domestic policy report regarding stem cell research. It is titled, Advancing Stem Cell Science Without Destroying Human Life and it is a great overview of what we know about stem cell science and some alternatives to using human embryos that are being explored.

YES! I unfortunately missed Sen. Brownback’s speech to the March for Life crowd yesterday. I wanted to watch the whole thing but I was running around most of the day and didn’t get to catch any of it. The Washington Post reports that the Presidential hopeful was more than well received at the Family Research Council’s “Blog for Life” event … Read More

Noah is, was, and always will be a human being. Nothing was done to that embryo to magically make it become a human being. The same embryo that was rescued from … Read More
As a pro-life ‘conservative’ I consider myself Republican because the pary declares on its platform that the right to life of the unborn must be protected. So I am a little concerned about the person who many consider one of the Republican front runners. Rudy Giuliani is very popular and a proven leader, mostly thanks to his wonderful performance as … Read More
A big thanks to my Uncle in Georgia for pointing this out to me. There is a bill proposed in the Georgia state legislature that declares that “a fetus is a person for all purposes under the laws of this state from the moment of conception” and consequently bans all abortions. HB 1, authored by State Rep. Bobby Franklin is … Read More
Apparently Sen. Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, who defeated my beloved Sen. Rick Santorum last November, is a pro-life Democrat and is, so far, planning to vote against the ESC research funding bill that just passed the House when it gets to the Senate floor. This is great news, however he will most likely be under tremendous pressure from supporters of … Read More
