Here’s more info on the fetal pain study authors. All are from the University of California, San Francisco: Susan J. Lee, JD: Lead author, medical student, attorney, once worked for NARAL Henry J. Peter Ralston, MD: Unbiased? According to a Knight Ridder article yesterday: UCSF neuroscientist Henry J. Peter Ralston said he hopes the review [...]
Paul Chesser’s opinion piece in today’s Washington Post serves as a reminder: While it is important to change the makeup of the Supreme Court, social conservatives — especially those concerned about abortion — need not and should not be counting on such a change in the judiciary to accomplish their goals. What they ought to [...]
Last week I blogged on NARAL’s decision not to endorse a Dem pro-abortion candidate for VA guv because the guy isn’t bloodthirsty enough. An August 21 piece in dailypress.com draws on this to say neither pro-life nor pro-abort activists may any longer be persuaded by talk without walk. This is good – pressure is good. [...]
Several news organizations, like the Washington Times and CNSNews.com, are reporting on a new stem cell that has been found in placenta. The new cell is “embryoniclike” in that it is “more versatile than [adult stem cells] while avoiding the ethical dilemmas surrounding [embryonic stem cells], according to CNS.
Columnist Jeff Gannon asks a great question: Would pro-choice gays back limits on abortion rights if a mother could terminate pregnancy of a gay fetus? Pro-lifers looking for legislative ideas should pick up on this one. Maine state Rep. Brian Duprey introduced such a bill earlier this year.
Sunday, October 2 is the 18th annual Life Chain Sunday. It’s simple and inexpensive to start a Life Chain if there are none near you. We launched ours at Christ Hospital four years ago. They are powerful. Monday, October 3, is the 1st annual American Life League-sponsored Pro-Life Memorial Day. This, too, is simple and [...]
Do you think the contraception issue is a component of the abortion issue, or are pro-lifers who “go there” over the top?
The Population Research Institute lists serious reasons other than the fact that emergency contraceptives may be abortifacients to keep them available only by prescription. PRI also itemizes the advances and retreats of emergency contraceptive pushers in Latin America.
Lost in the debate as to how many women should die before waving the red flag over RU-486 should not be the slipshod way it was approved – during the final days of Clinton’s watch, not surprisingly. Before those four too-bad-so-sad CA women died (nowhere else, that’s odd), CWA, AAPLOG, and CMA filed a citizens [...]
I blogged the other day that pro-aborts have discovered a winning angle in the emergency contraceptive controversy: tying together birth control pills and ECs. They say, and rightfully so, that if a pharmacist and/or pharmacy have no moral problem dispensing birth control pills, they cannot claim to have a problem dispensing ECs on the grounds [...]
Jill Stanek is a nurse turned speaker, columnist and blogger, a national figure in the effort to protect both preborn and postborn innocent human life.
My choice is to not support abortion, except in cases of a clear-cut choice between the lives of the mother and child.
