Meriam Ibrahim Finally Heads to U.S. After Being Sentenced to Death for Her Faith
The Sudanese woman who was pregnant and sentenced to death for not recanting her faith is finally headed for the United States after she spent weeks in a U.S. embassy after her release from prison.
At eight months pregnant, Ibrahim had been sentenced to death for not renouncing her Christian faith and she was imprisoned and eventually forced to give birth in chains while shackled in the Omdurman Federal Womens Prison in North Khartoum, Sudan. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/meriam-ibrahim-finally-heads-to-u-s-after-being-sentenced-to-death-for-her-faith/
Amazing Video Shows Life Before Birth: Everything a Newborn Baby Does, a Fetus Has Already Done
An amazing new video that appeared on the Today show shows life before birth. The pro-life movement already knows unborn babies are capable or truly astonishing things and this report confirms it.
Dr. Bill Fifer, a professor of psychiatry at Columbia University and a leading expert on fetal and newborn learning, appears on the program and says Everything that a newborn baby does, a fetus has pretty much done already. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/amazing-video-shows-life-before-birth-everything-a-newborn-baby-does-a-fetus-has-already-done/
A Christian Told Him Abortion Will Never be Stopped, His Response Was Priceless
Abortion cannot be stopped. That is what a man said to me as I was coming out of Mass with the Stand True Mission Team and the walkers from Crossroads Pro-life Walks Across America.
You may be kind of surprised that I would hear this from someone coming out of church but it is not that uncommon. Pessimism coupled with apathy permeates in our churches and people who claim to follow Christ. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/a-christian-told-him-abortion-will-never-be-stopped-his-response-was-priceless/
Ruth Bader Ginsburg Accuses Pro-Hobby Lobby SCOTUS Judges of Being Sexist
Apparently the phony war on women has made its way to the Supreme Court. Upset by the fact that a majority of the justices on the high court ruled in favor of Hobby Lobbys religious freedoms, Ruth Bader Ginsburg is now accusing them of being sexist.
In a new interview with pro-abortion media icon Katie Couric, Ginsburg lashes out at her colleagues and claims they have a blind spot towards women because they decided that Hobby Lobby should not be forced to pay for drugs that cause abortions for their employees. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/ruth-bader-ginsburg-accuses-pro-hobby-lobby-scotus-judges-of-being-sexist/
Mom Takes Daughter For Abortion After Husband Rapes Her
A new report just released by the group Life Dynamics, Inc. shows documented criminal cases of men who raped innocent kids and when the child became pregnant they were taken, sometimes by the pedophile, and sometimes by another person to abortion clinics who failed to file abuse reports with the state.
According to the report, every state has mandatory reporting statutes. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/mom-takes-daughter-for-abortion-after-husband-rapes-her/
Mother Arrested After Giving Birth During Lunch Break, Abandoning Baby, Returning to Work
A woman in Poland has been arrested after she left work for her lunch break, gave birth, abandoned her baby, and then returned to her office. Fortunately the baby was found alive.
Jolanta Czarnecka stands accused of attempted murder after leaving baby. During trial, the court heard it was a miracle the baby survived after being left for two days. Czarnecka is now facing five years in jail if she is found guilty. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/mother-arrested-after-giving-birth-during-lunch-break-abandoning-baby-returning-to-work/
To Hide Botched Abortion Injuring Woman, Planned Parenthood Refuses to Call 911
In what is becoming an all-too-familiar occurrence, pro-life sidewalk counselors snapped photos as an ambulance arrived to transport yet another patient from the Planned Parenthood abortion facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Planned Parenthood volunteers held up bed sheets as a covered woman was wheeled out of the abortion facility on a gurney in an attempt to prevent pro-life supporters from documenting the event.
This incident, which took place on July 10, 2014, boosts the number of known medical emergencies at the St. Louis Planned Parenthood site to 26 in the past five years. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/planned-parenthood-refuses-to-call-911-to-hide-botched-abortion-injuring-woman/
Did a Federal Court Just Rule That Every Single State Has to Have an Abortion Clinic?
Earlier this week, in a transparent act of judicial slight-of-hand, two judges on the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled a pro-life bill in Mississippi unconstitutional. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/did-a-federal-court-just-rule-that-every-single-state-has-to-have-an-abortion-clinic/
UN Abandons Children Born of Rape in War-Torn Countries When Women Reject Abortion
As the issue of sexual violence has risen at the UN, the matter of the children born of that violence has fallen precipitously. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/un-abandons-children-born-of-rape-in-war-torn-countries-when-women-reject-abortion/
You Wont Believe What Police Did When Pro-Lifers Tried to Protest at This Abortion Clinic
Days after the police in Jackson Mississippi watched as business owners took the signs from the pro-life group Created Equal, the organization has uploaded a video showing what they claim is mistreatment by the police again. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/you-wont-believe-what-police-did-when-pro-lifers-tried-to-protest-at-this-abortion-clinic/
Pro-Life Billboards Make it Clear: Real Men Support Pregnant Women and Their Unborn Baby
This month, Ohio Right To Life launched a new pro-life ad campaign in Clevelands low-income, majority black neighborhoods. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/pro-life-billboards-make-it-clear-real-men-support-pregnant-women-and-their-unborn-baby/
Refuting the Ridiculous Pro-Abortion Claim: The Pro-Life Movement is Anti-Sex
The pro-abortion claim that pro-lifers are anti-sex is nothing new. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/refuting-the-ridiculous-pro-abortion-claim-the-pro-life-movement-is-anti-sex/

Toledo, Ohio May Become Abortion Free as Abortion Clinic Has License Revoked

Philippines Welcomes Baby Number 100 Million as It Rejects Abortion
Population Research Institute welcomes the birth of little Chonalyn Sentino. Baby Chonalyn was born this past Sunday to parents Clemente and Dailin, and was feted in the Philippines as Baby 100 Million. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/31/philippines-welcomes-baby-number-100-million-as-it-rejects-abortion/

Life in the womb
Life in the womb is much busier than you might expect, said Dr. Bill Fifer, a professor of psychiatry at Columbia University and a leading expert on fetal and newborn learning. |
Gay fury descends upon Protestant minister
Attached to a few comments were death threats and statements like, “I hope you die of pancreatic cancer.” And then these same people have the audacity to accuse me of being filled with hate, filled with Satan, calling me a delusional piece of trash, an absolute monster, and other grossly offensive obscenities not appropriate for public space. One could easily have mistaken them for terrorists who delight in killing those who refuse to convert to their ideology.
|
Pregnant mom of 4 dies after bee stings, leaves behind legacy of love
“Her passing was so tough, because I love her so much. She’s a gift that was given from God, he knows that I needed her, and she was this amazing gift.”
|
Lithuanian health minister pushing for euthanasia of the poor
Countries that allow euthanasia have already fallen pretty far, allowing for children and people with mental illnesses to be killed.
|
Why Would God Expect People to be Married to the Same Person for Life?
The indissolubility of marriage is one of the most difficult teachings of the Church.
|
Sex can’t explain the culture war
Pope Paul VI was right: Family matters.

Massachusetts Governor Signs Radical Bill Prohibiting Pro-Life Free Speech
Despite the fact the nations highest court took the state of Massachusetts to task for passing a law curtailing the free speech rights of pro-life advocates, the Bay State is again trying to suppress them.
In a unanimous decision last month, the Supreme Court struck down a Massachusetts buffer zone law prohibiting pro-life free speech outside abortion clinics. The decision was a huge victory for pro-life sidewalk counselors who provide women with abortion alternatives. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/30/massachusetts-governor-signs-radical-bill-prohibiting-pro-life-free-speech/
Mom Just Watched as Neighbor Found Abandoned Baby She Left on the Side of the Road
There were hints in the early reports about an abandoned baby who was found on a dirt road in White Cloud, Michigan that there were even more shocking revelations.
On Monday, a little after 10:00 am, Bobby, a black Labrador, pulled his owner, Jeff Kopp, down the road and toward a satellite dish. What Kopp initially thought was a rock or a rabbit was, in fact, a baby girl, evidently about six hours old. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/30/mom-watched-as-neighbors-found-abandoned-baby-she-left-on-the-side-of-the-road/
Man Took 14-Year-Old For Three Abortions After Impregnating Her, Clinics Ignored the Rapes
Last week the pro-life organization, Life Dynamics, Inc. released a stunning report which detailed actual criminal cases of adult pedophiles who used abortion to cover their crimes.
The group points out that in case after case where the predators impregnated their victims, the abortion clinics failed to report the abuse, leaving the young victims to suffer sometimes years of rape as a result. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/30/man-took-14-year-old-for-three-abortions-after-impregnating-her-clinics-ignored-the-rapes/
Democrat: Stop Whining About Cancelled Insurance Plans Under Obamacare
The pro-life movement raised the alarm during the health care debate that adopting Obamacare would lead to rationing of health care in a way that could cost patients their very lives. Then, that started to happen more and more often.
Now, one Congressional Democrat has a response to Americans who lost their health insurance under Obamacare and Republicans who are speaking out on their behalf: quit whining. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/30/democrat-stop-whining-about-cancelled-insurance-plans-under-obamacare/
She Was 15, Raped, and Wanted to Abort Her Baby, Then This Happened
She was my hardest case thus far determined to abort her rape conceived baby. By mistake this fifteen year old went to a pregnancy center looking for an abortion. They called me.
She wanted a life, to stay in school to go into the military and this child would only get in the way. She regurgitated every lie society had told her. For an hour she looked straight ahead away from me seemingly void of any emotion. We had seen the sonogram but she was unaffected. She was told she was having a son. I told her about my own hero mom and how I love my life. http://www.lifenews.com/2014/07/30/she-was-15-raped-and-wanted-to-abort-her-baby-then-this-happened/
Girl Cries When She Learns Her Little Brother Will Grow Up: But Hes So Cute!

TV Shows Featuring Nudity Highlight Culture’s Crisis of Truth

Northwestern University will offer “gender-open restrooms” to its students this fall.

On Medjugorje
IN the over 900 writings on this website, I have mentioned Medjugorje relatively few times. I have not ignored it, as some wish me to, for the simple fact that I would be acting contrary to Sacred Scripture which commands us not to despise, but test prophecy. In that regard, after 33 years, Rome has intervened several times to prevent this alleged apparition site from being shut down, even going so far as to take authority for the authenticity of the apparitions away from the local bishop and into the hands of the Vatican and her commissions, and ultimately the Pope himself. Neither can one ignore, without a certain intellectual dishonesty, the numerous statements from not only cardinals and bishops, but from St. John Paul II himself that were positive, if not outright celebratory of this unofficial Marian shrine (seeMedjugorje: Just the Facts Ma’am. Pope Francis has yet to make a public pronouncement, but is known to have allowed the seers of Medjugorje to speak in his jurisdiction while he was a Cardinal.)
While I’ve shared my own experiences of Medjugorje in the past (see That Medjugorje) as well as a powerful encounter of Divine Mercy there (see Miracle of Mercy), today I am going to speak to those who want to see Medjugorje shut down and mothballed.
What are you thinking?
