Planned Parenthood Caught on Tape Covering Up Statutory Rape – Threatens Lawsuit to Hide Evidence

91% of the facilities that admitted that a crime had been committed agreed to conceal it.

This is where millions upon millions of our tax dollars go every year.  It seems to me that even pro-choice people would be disgusted that so much money goes to an organization that looks for ways to break and circumvent the law at every turn.  Lets not also forget the number of young lives that are devastated by the encouragement to protect the predators that prey upon them and the torture of the rest of their lives dealing with the killing of a child.  Rest assured that if Prolife organizations received that kind of tax support pro choicer's would be crawling all over them to look for behavior like this in order to stop the flow of money.

My heart goes out to the daughter of the PPLA worker that said she would have aborted her!  How do you deal with something like that, the daughter and the mother.  Oh yeah, by lying and hiding it.

St. Louis Archbishop Opposes Sheryl Crow's Appearance at Children's Charity Due to Abortion Stance

Three cheers for Archbishop Raymond Burke! He gets it! It is more important to save souls than have a PC attitude that "This is about helping kids.". Come on, how can a person who claims to be working for kids accept a person who advocates for killing children. And how serious can Costas be taken when he claims to be for kids but wouldn't include a "litmus test" for somebody advocating killing kids. Are these people for real? Are they that ignorant and caught up in themselves that they cannot see the contradiction?

"It's very painful for me," Burke said during a news conference Wednesday. "But I have to answer to God for the responsibility I have as archbishop.

Gay marriage evil, abortion terrorism: Vatican - washingtonpost.com

It's astounding to me how Pullella can make it sound as if it is Archbishop Amato and Pope Benedict "coming up" with these truths about evil.  A true Catholic will understand that we must hate the sin and love the sinner (I now that sounds corny but it is true).  But to not call a sin a sin is to not only endanger the eternal soul of the sinner but to endanger the soul of the person who is not educating the sinner.  We cannot condemn our fellow man, only God can do that, but we will be held accountable for our actions, or inactions, that lead to God condemning our fellow man. 

The Vatican's second-highest ranking doctrinal official on Monday forcefully branded homosexual marriage an evil and denounced abortion and euthanasia as forms of "terrorism with a human face."

Gonzales v. Carhart, 05-380 - FindLaw US Supreme Court Center

Let the spin machines begin!  Take a look at the link below to take a look at the volume of information that is already available concerning Gonzales v. Carhart.  

I just wanted to print out today's US Supreme Court decision.  Just the decision is 75 pages long.

I wonder, is the average, everyday guy in this country, let alone a brain damaged StrokeBoy, EVER going to be able to fully understand the laws we have to live by every day.  The answer to that is a big fat NO with lawyers running everything.

Cardinal Hails Court's Abortion Ruling

Cardinal Justin Rgali is sounding very optimistic about today's Supreme Court ruling.  In this ZENIT article he quotes language in the decision that is surprisingly prolife which would give reason for prolife Americans to be optimistic.

I however believe that the opposition has just begun the fight.  This is something too important for the Culture of Death to taking lying down.

The cardinal, who is archbishop of Philadelphia, added: "Especially welcome is the court's explicit recognition of certain key facts: that abortion is the taking of a human life, and that government has a legitimate interest in protecting and preserving this life at every stage."  

In the quote below he is pleased that the court recognizes the devastating affect that abortion has on many facets of society.  I'm sure that he was mindful of the absence of the mention of men and how being involved in the killing of their child may affect them.  That may be too difficult of a leap for the court right now as it would strengthen the idea of a family having two parents, male and female.

He further praised the court's recognition "that 'respect for human life finds an ultimate expression in the bond of love the mother has for her child'; that abortion may also cause grief and sorrow for women, which is only made worse when the reality of the procedure has been withheld from them until it is too late; and that the ethical integrity of the medical profession, as well as the fabric of our society, is threatened by the acceptance of practices that are difficult to distinguish from infanticide."

I have not read the text of the actual decision, but I plan on it. 

In the mean time the best course of action is still to pray, fast and do penance.

Legal victory for abortion opponents

Celebrate, but only a little! 

It should be painfully obvious to everybody now that a so called 'right' to kill an unborn child is never going to go away by depending upon legislation alone. 

Until we change the hearts and minds of an entire nation we will be continually pulled from one extreme to another.  As the winds constantly change from political conservatism to liberalism the volume of innocent lives taken and people ravaged with the aftermath will decrease or increase.  Americans will change their value system based upon the last election or as in this case nine individual judges.

The 5-4 ruling, which upheld the federal Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act of 2003, marks a significant shift to the right by the US’s top court on one of the country’s most divisive issues.

All people who respect life should feel a cold chill in there blood when reading the quote below by Justice Ginsburg.  What have we done as a society when we have made the taking of an innocent life so mundane that in her words it is a central part of a woman's life?!  We must pray and fast for those that hold this as a "centrality" of their life.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who wrote a dissent on behalf of the court’s liberal wing, called the decision “alarming”. She said it “cannot be understood as anything other than an effort to chip away at a right declared again and again by this court – and with increasing comprehension of its centrality to women’s lives”.

Never forget, the right to kill unborn children was brought to you via Roe v Wade in 1973 by the same institution that brought America Dred Scott v. Sandford in 1856.  Both decisions have cost millions of lives and incalculable suffering and division.  That is NOT something that more legislation can fix.

Pray, fast and do penance!  The war is far from over.

From being forced to offer contraception and abortions in hospitals to
placing innocent children with homosexual "couples" Christian values are being
threatened at every turn. I think those threats are also becoming more
powerful as people try to enforce anti -Christian thinking with laws. If
we don't begin to stand up for our beliefs they are going to be legislated away
from us.
