Stanek weekend question: Where are “obvious places” religious leaders can help lower NYC’s soaring abortion rates?

The news of the New York City area’s egregious abortion rates has grabbed national headlines and sobered even abortion proponents. According to liberal Slate on January 7: Pro-choice and pro-life groups alike are shuddering at the news that 4 out of every 10 pregnancies in NYC ends in abortion. Data released Friday by the city’s […]

Stanek weekend question: Is it more a problem for pro-lifers or pro-choicers that the majority of aborting women already have children ?

Writing about the MTV abortion special, No Easy Decision, pro-abort Jessica Wakeman wrote at TheFrisky.com (emphasis hers): According to a 2008 paper in The Journal of Family Issues, 61% of American women who have abortions are already mothers. That is a fact which is all too easily obscured by anti-abortion protestors: the majority of American […]

Stanek weekend question III: Could Congress indirectly ban abortion with an exhorbitant tax?

Fascinating, provocative questions posed by Megan McArdle, business and economics editor for The Atlantic, on December 17. Never thought of this… An interesting question emerges from one of my comment threads on whether or not congress should be able to use the taxing power to get over limits on its enumerated powers. 1)  Can Congress […]

Stanek weekend question II: Who are today’s 10 most influential pro-lifers?

Newsweek’s top 10 list of today’s most influential leaders of the “religious right” got me thinking. The only leader Newsweek included who is solely committed to advancing the sanctity of life was Marjorie Dannenfelser, founder and president of the Susan B. Anthony List, well deserved, I might add. That got me thinking. Who do you […]

Stanek weekend question I: What were the top 10 pro-life news stories of 2010?

There was a lot of action on the Life issue in 2010, both good and bad (although much more of the former than the latter, IMO). Looking back, what do you think was one or more of the top 10 pro-life news stories of the year? I may use your thoughts in an upcoming WorldNetDaily.com […]

Stanek weekend question: Why are social conservatives losing the gay debate but winning the pro-life debate?

Are social conservatives losing the gay debate but winning the pro-life debate? If so, why? And does this really matter to pro-lifers? Conservative politico Matt Lewis wrote at Politics Daily on December 10: Social conservative groups… don’t have the juice they used to. Nobody on the right wants to admit this publicly, but they’ve lost […]

Stanek weekend question: How many of Keith Olbermann’s babies have been aborted?

On November 29 MSNBC liberal host Keith Olbermann mocked Bristol Palin for promoting abstinence before marriage, naming her that day’s Worst Person in the World. Start viewing at 1:47… Ace of Spades provided a great response:

Weekend question: Which did the abortion vote stunt help more, the pro-life or pro-choice movement?

As most know, a couple named Pete and Alisha Arnold, pictured right, have received notoriety for launching BirthorNot.com. The 2 claimed a tally of reader votes received by December 7 would determine whether they birthed or aborted their baby. Read more of the backstory here. I received an interesting question from a reporter, wondering whether […]
