Wesley Smith writes about how a prosecutor has decided to decriminalize assisted suicide in Britain.

Here’s a nonsensical column in the University of MN’s newspaper by Opinions/Editorials Editor Jonathon Brown. In response to receiving an overwhelming number of letters regarding a recent pro-life display on campus, Brown writes that students shouldn’t waste their time debating abortion because the debate is “long-dead” and the issue is the most polarizing in America. If the debate is “long-dead” then why are so many students willing to write in to their campus paper about it?…

Catholic Culture has excerpts of an interview the Times of Malta did with Doug Kmiec. In 1 part, Kmiec recalls that Obama described abortion as “taking the life of a child.”

In South Africa, an abortion clinic will apparently be investigated after the body of an aborted child blocked a drain:

“At this stage, we suspect that the foetus was flushed down the drain by the abortion clinic in one of the buildings in Hill Street.”
We will be investigating one of the abortion clinics in the area, said Khuzwayo.
She said police were not sure whether the clinic was legal or not and added that this was the 3rd time that a drain had been blocked because of the flushing away of a foetus.
“It happened at least 3 times last week,” she said.

Just read Doug Kmiec’s interview with the Times of Malta.
Poor man.

The “issue” of unborn human rights is “long-dead” for the simple reason that ALL abortionist “arguments” are complete fallacies and ALL have been decisively refuted over the years.
There is nothing at “issue” because we long ago proved that killing us human beings in the first nine months of our lives and depriving us of our entire human lifespans violates our rights and is therefore a crime. There is no way that any opponent of unborn human rights can refute this proposition. Not only that, but they cannot and will not even admit what their position actually is: “killing us human beings in the first nine months and taking away our entire lifespans does NOT violate our rights” because we do not have a right to live a human lifespan.
The anti-unborn human rights mentality has been devastatingly refuted but opponents of basic human rights continue to cling to their fallacies because they have a psychological need to believe in this violence. They will not listen to reason.
This is why they give us mind-numbing drivel and doublespeak about “choice” and “choose” and “decisions” and “women’s ‘health'”. No rational intellectually honest movement would offer up such nonsense in place of sound argument. However, that is not the type of movement we are dealing with, is it?
