(Prolifer)ations 12-3-10

- Catholic Vote discusses the House’s recent attempt to push the abortion agenda with the Women Veterans Bill of Rights, which would have “enshrined a right to taxpayer funding of abortions, mandatory access to abortionists, and ‘telmed’ abortions in the military” if pro-lifers like Rep. Chris Smith had not “amend[ed] the bill before it passed so that it specifically excluded abortions, abortion counseling, and IVF.”
- Americans United for Life reports on the International Violence Against Women Actbeing considered by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee this week, which would increase international abortion support with our tax dollars through non-governmental pro-abortion organizations. This perpetuates, rather than stops, violence against women.
- Moral Outcry blogs about a Time Magazine piece which paints late-term abortionist Warren Hern (pictured left) as a sympathetic figure and makes pro-lifers look like bad guys. In the article, Hern absurdly states:
It is the clear policy of the American anti-abortion movement to kill every doctor who does abortions. It is not a secret.
- Ethika Politika tackles the thought process that goes on when we are pro-life but struggle with the rape exception:
We are arguably the most educated nation in the world, yet we do not understand that the taking of an innocent human life is always and unconditionally wrong. We are confused, baffled, and hesitant about whether or not abortion is “sometimes” okay. In short, we are lost.
- American Life League notes President Obama signed a law in October decreeing the term “mental retardation” must no longer be used in federal statutes, and will be replaced by “intellectual disability.” A nice gesture, to be sure, but ALL points out the need for one further step – stop aborting them.
- Coming Home has given out its 1st official “Golden Coconut” award to a pro-choicer “spout[ing] anti-scientific nonsense in the headlong pursuit of butchering babies.” The 1st winner insisted that less abortion leads to more poverty and crime – despite statistics that show the opposite.
- Culture Campaign reports the “Jesus sonogram” is causing consternation at Christmas time.
- Big Blue Wave chronicles the 2-month-long actions designed to intimidate the Carleton Lifeline pro-life campus group in Ottawa. The latest tactic: being told they cannot be represented by legal counsel during an internal appeal meeting.
What happened to my earlier comment???
And the “Jesus sonogram” in Britain. ROFLMAO. The rational and pro-choice Brits, who handed the Pope his hat, will not buy that treacly stuff!
And “Coming Home” – wow, I’m impressed – that’s a blog run by ultra anti-choice Dr. Gerad Nadal.
Don’t worry, DD, there’s always next year.
Ninek,
Actually it’s a monthly award. So DD is still in the running. Also, an individual can win more than once ;-)
So when is the anti-choice movement going to shut down all the IVF labs? They’re murdering babies, right?
DD,
Can you explain to me where IVF fills a need?
Or is it just about the selfish and arrogant attitude of, “I want a child, but it must have my DNA, and as God is not facilitating the creation of my child quickly enough, I will force the issue”… Often by parents who had previously tried to cut God out of the marital act.
The number of times I’ve heard a couple bemoan their situation, complaining about how they couldn’t get pregnant even after they got off of “the pill.” And the number of times they’ve completely rejected the notion that their many years of contracepting could have anything to do with their inability to reproduce… Oh, we are so foolish and so arrogant a people!
The whole claim of aborts being pro-choice and those who oppose them are pro-choice is idiotic. Aborts want us to pat for their abortions, and don’t want us to have a choice in them unless we suffer jailtime for not paying taxes to meet their demands. Aborts for the most part are also for restrictions to choose to have acess to guns. So much for choice there. Aborts mainly are against school choice. Many of them want to force parents to submit their kids to their own indoctrination, be it on reproduction morality (or I should say amorality) or be it on their anti-Christian stances.
The bottom line is aborts don’t care about choice unless it is theirs and theirs to have abortions (or not). They don’t care about choice in general, since they do more than enough to tell others they have no choice on certain matters if they have their way.
Very good point MaryRose. The contraceptive pro-abort mindset, “I want to have sex whenever I want, I only want to get pregnant when I want and if I get pregnant when the timing is not perfect then I want to abort the baby but when I cannot get pregnant when I want then I want someone to guarantee me an out so I can get pregnant.” Count them 7 ” I want, I want, I want, I want, I want, I want and I want. It’s all about me, me, me, me, me, me and me.
It’s all about me, me, me, me, me, me and me
Who cares! It’s really none of our business what motivates people.
And jeffrey dahmer just wanted to eat people. Who are we to judge?
“And jeffrey dahmer just wanted to eat people. Who are we to judge”
So women who excercise their right to have an abortion are cannibals. Who knew?!
DD when someone’s motivation results in the dismemberment, mutilation and murder of another innocent human being it should become everyone’s business. “Silence is consent”. I feel many who were silent while the atrocities against millions of innocent human beings throughout history were being committed thought just like you DD saying, “it’s really none of our business”. PP’s founder, Margaret Sanger wrote that the lower class and minorities were “unfit, human weeds” and that there needed to be “more for the fit”, I totally disagree with her eugenic mindset. Women “weeding out” their unborn babies to cherry pick “the one” they want is “sick” to me however you seem very supportive of this philosophy. It’s ok, I won’t waste time with circular arguments.
DD, It is VERY MUCH our business what motivates a mother to kill her child.
So women who excercise their right to have an abortion are cannibals. Who knew?!
No, his reasons to kill were sexual and culinary. A mother’s reasons to kill are just as shallow, however different. But you don’t want us to question a mother’s motives for killing, so why should we question anyone’s?
