Spotlighting important information gleaned from other pro-life blogs…
The trouble with such a partnership is that CeltiCare is known to provide coverage for abortions and “family planning services,” and speculations have been made both ways about the implications such a partnership would involve. According to Brown:
The terms of CeltiCare’s contract with the state government specifically require coverage for abortions and other “reproductive health” services. How then could Caritas Christi – which owns 49% of the for-profit CeltiCare – justify its involvement and direct connection with this business while adhering to the Catholic Church’s unequivocal teachings on abortion, contraception and sterilization?
“I think it is dangerous,” says Sean Tipton, spokesman for the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. “It’s the language of embryo adoption that helps people start equating in their minds an embryo with a child. And if you establish that legally, it becomes very important.”
Using the term “adoption,” the article argues, humanizes the embryo, striking a damaging blow to “in vitro fertilization, the future of embryonic stem cell research, and abortion.”
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.
This isn’t right- John should have justice, too. How could he not be considered a victim? Bigotry against the unborn goes this deep that even when abortion has nothing to do with their deaths they still cannot be called human beings?
The reformation of laws such as this is one of the first things that I’ll celebrate when this period of inequality comes to an end.
The leaders of the state of OREGON should be ashamed. I’ve heard it’s a beautiful place, I’d love to visit, but I’ll be spending my vacation dollars elsewhere.
Oregon is indeed a beautiful place to visit. Problem is there are no jobs.
Andy,
“Oregon is indeed a beautiful place to visit. Problem is there are no jobs.”
So the exodus has already begun?
Sean Tipton needs to meet Noah:

Tipton is an adult, which is a stage of development in a human being, just as he once was an embryo. This is basic science, and unless the embryos are cloned, it is always someone’s child.
Could we get a kindergartner to teach Sean Tipton the basics of the birds and the bees?
Chris:
I remember the local NBC news reporting Noah’s story. Our anchor (who is a father of two) read: “Noah was conceived from an embryo rescued from a fertility clinic during Hurricane Katrina.” Ummmm, really? No one caught that? Noah WAS the embryo rescued from Katrina. You almost have to wonder if propagating such ignorance is done on purpose.
