“It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.” Alice…in Wonderland
I have avoided writing about politics for quite a while for many reasons. The primary one is because I’m a bit of a pessimist, and, frankly, I see the writing on the wall when it comes to the beautiful experiment of a constitutional republic and a nation governed by rule of law. But, though fatally […]
Today, hundreds of thousands of pro-lifers from all over the country will gather for the 41st year at the March for Life to speak out for life and against the horrors of abortion. There will be people who were at that very first march in 1974, but those will be vastly outnumbered by the thousands […]
I’m generally not a fan of “National X day” (except national donut/chocolate/or coffee day), but today is National Adoption Day, which is a fantastic use of an otherwise pointless habit. If you mark it in no other way, read this wonderful article by Joleigh Little. Joleigh once wrangled my young and foolish self as an […]
I would like to start out by saying pro-lifers are the most amazing, compassionate, caring people I know. They not only pour out their blood, sweat, and tears to speak out for the unborn, they also adopt kids, foster, kids, adopt shelter animals, feed the homeless, take care of the elderly and infirm, etc. etc. […]
In my latest Communities Digital News article, I take another look at female gendercide — this time on Western Shores. Two Canadian medical societies have released a statement calling for a ban on “non-medical” ultrasound. Although sex-selection abortion is never mentioned in the statement, the reporting around the statement mentions the increase in sex-selection abortion, […]
The good news is that the abortion rate, the number of abortions per 1000 women, has dropped to its lowest point since 1973. More and more, women are rejecting abortion. More and more, Americans realize that abortion is not the solution to difficult circumstances. Lives are being saved. The bad news is that even though […]
To decimate comes from the Roman practice of killing one in every ten soldiers in a mutinous legion. Decimate now means “to severely damage or destroy a large part of something.” Over the past 41, over 56,000,000 children have been killed through abortion. If one in ten is to decimate, what is almost one in […]
Yesterday, I went to my first March for Life in a long time and my first in Texas. I had forgotten how encouraging and inspiring it is to stand in the middle of thousands of people who believe as I do, that all human life has value, that the defenseless should be defended, and that […]
This year, hundreds of thousands of Americans will gather in Washington, DC, for the 40th March for Life. Thousand more will gather through the month in their states and cities for marches, rallies, and prayer vigils remembering the over 56 million children killed by abortion since the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. The March for […]
Last week, Belgium took steps to expand its euthanasia law to include children. After ten years of legal euthanasia there, the European Institute of Bioethics reported that the various safeguards and limits originally written into the law are routinely ignored. We saw the same thing in The Netherlands, the first country to accept euthanasia in […]
