(Prolifer)ations 9-10-10

- Moral Outcry reports on George Soros and his recent $100M gift to Human Rights Watch, a liberal pro-abortion group. To date, it is the largest political donation ever made by Soros.
- Pro-Life Wisconsin discusses NARAL’s unhappiness with the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. A week after lauding Planned Parenthood’s 75th birthday, it seems the newspaper published a scathing opinion column which referred to Anne Gaylor, founder of the Women’s Fund (which pays for women’s abortions when they can’t afford them) as “Sweet little old Granny Blood-Money.” Outraged, NARAL encouraged supporters to demand a retraction and apology from the paper. They received neither.
- Andrea Mrozek of ProWomanProLife expresses appreciation for a recent anti-euthanasia editorial in the Montreal Gazette and challenges the editors to use the same logical arguments on behalf of the unborn.
- Pro-Life Action League reminds us that 20 years ago, State Sen. Richard Daley was a staunch pro-life politician. After becoming mayor of Chicago, he changed his tune the 1st year. Now announcing his retirement, he will not be missed by the pro-life movement.
- Secular Pro-Life believes the term “social justice” is often misused or abused and asks readers how they would define it.
- Live Action shares some revelations about prenatal music exposure as related to musical preferences after birth.
- Big Blue Wave follows the fate of 8 students who were found guilty of non-academic misconduct for having a pro-life display on campus (which had been presented 8 times since 2006). They were denied a hearing to appeal a guilty verdict. Sadly, “free speech” appears to be little more than a figure of speech on the U of Calgary campus.

“The idea that dealing death is the only or best option is so contrary to reality as to be inexplicable. “We always have a family for every child,” said one woman who also takes calls from frightened, pregnant young women but who doesn’t then say murder is the answer. To the contrary, her agency had about 100 would-be parents for every healthy child when I talked to her a few years back, and she had waiting lists of families looking to adopt sick or disabled children. “We have never had to turn away a mom.” –Milwaukee Journal Online column: Sweet Little old Granny Blood Money
The referenced column tells about a “crusader” who has personally written nearly 19,000 checks over a period of 34 years to assist women (and girls) in paying for their abortions. One alternative, adoption, has sadly been ignored. Perhaps thousands of families would have had the joy of welcoming into their homes adoptive babies had it not been for the insane “crusade” of this lone woman.
The music story is of interest to me. All my children are musically gifted but my third child was the only one who was in utero when we had a piano and I played regularly.
I often played Mozart, Bach, and romantic music. This child is now a classical pianist who best plays Bach and Chopin and Debussy. She will be working towards a career as a pianist. :)
