If You Can’t Afford an Abortion, Lie to a Friend

May 21, 2013 By

Aside from Planned Parenthood, NAF, and NARAL, we also have the NNAF (National Network of Abortion Funds). This stellar group has some great ideas for women who cannot afford abortion that include lying, going into debt, and asking your church! Here’s what the group encouraged in a recent article:

  • Do I have a credit card? Does a friend or family member have one? (If I have time, can I apply for a new card? Could I request a limit increase, which can often take effect on the next business day? I can put just a portion of the cost on a credit card if my limit isn’t high enough.)
  • Can I get a line of credit at my bank?
  • Is there an emergency fund at my church?
  • Can I use my cable bill money toward my abortion and then ask someone else for help with my cable bill?
  • Are there people who might not help me cover the cost of an abortion, but would help me cover other costs? Am I comfortable lying to a friend or family member, telling them that I had an unexpectedly high electric bill or gas bill due to heating or A/C costs?
  • Are there bills that I can pay late or skip this month? Can I talk to the electric company about changing the due date for my bill? (Note that it’s illegal for utilities to shut off the heat source for non-payment during the coldest winter months.)

With so many groups “looking out for women” we can all rest easy. But seriously, when a group encourages people to lie and go into debt in order to kill a child can we expect ethical treatment of women or the law elsewhere? Not in my opinion. Click here for original article.

France Redefines Marriage Despite Massive Opposition

May 21, 2013 By

Despite overwhelming opposition from a majority in France, the government has decided to redefine marriage to include same-sex “marriage.” In response to this, the ADF has issued the following statement: “Society should protect and strengthen marriage, not undermine it. That’s the belief of the people of France. This redefinition of marriage has been pushed through at great speed without their support. Millions have taken to the streets in protest, but the government has not responded by listening to the people. Instead, it has sought to silence them with police brutality.”

The same seems to be taking place here in the U.S. as legislatures and courts ignore the will of the people and decide to do what they want with marriage. Though a few states have legalized same-sex “marriage” as a result of voter referendum, the majority have done so through judicial or legislative activism. We are still waiting to see what the Supreme Court will decide in the marriage cases currently before it. But it is our hope that the court will not act, but rather allow states to make these decisions in conjunction with the people. Click here for original article.

How the Gosnell Trial Changed the Abortion Debate Forever

May 21, 2013 By

Kermit GosnellAmericans didn’t overwhelmingly follow the murder trial of infamous abortionist Kermit Gosnell. That’s in part due to the deliberate media blackout of the trial in hopes of salvaging the shiny reputation of abortion in America. Groups like Planned Parenthood and NARAL don’t want people knowing that Gosnell snipped baby’s spinal cords, kept their remains in the freezer, and threw bodies in the trash. They don’t want you to know that Gosnell’s clinic was filthy, with blood and urine soaking floors, walls, and furniture, or that he routinely lied to the women who sought his help in order to cash in on killing their unborn children.

The reason they don’t want you to know these disturbing facts is that they are common, taking place in abortion clinics around the country with shocking frequency. Many want to believe that Gosnell was a rogue abortionist that simply didn’t’ follow the law; Planned Parenthood and NARAL certainly want to portray him as such. The truth is that his practices and his clinic are standard operating procedure for the abortion industry.

In fact, after the Gosnell trial, the North Carolina Department of Health Services closed a Charlotte based abortion clinic because of the squalid, filthy conditions they found inside. Last I checked Kermit Gosnell doesn’t have a clinic in Charlotte, North Carolina. What was that you were saying about Gosnell being a rogue abortionist? [Read more...]

Engaging Weekend: White House Says Americans Can Opt Out of ObamaCare, Teachers Want to Make School Curriculum “Gay Friendly,” Doctor Can Kill Child But Boyfriend Can’t

May 20, 2013 By

Engaging Weekend is a collection of articles you might have missed over the weekend. But we thought they were important and wanted to make sure you had a chance to read them.

White House: All Americans Can Opt-Out Of ObamaCare

A recent article shares the details of an exchange between a journalist and the White House in which, after being asked about keeping their individual health-care plan, the White House responds by saying that if you have private health insurance you should be able to keep the plan you like. The writer then shares the implications of this news: “What this quite clearly means is that people who object to being forced to pay for abortifants and abortions as part of their “health” insurance plan can simply keep their current plan that doesn’t offer them. It clearly means that we can all have plans that don’t keep our twenty-five year old “children” feeding out of our pocketbooks. Best of all, this obviously means that–unlike ObamaCare plans that none of us have to use–the cost of our premiums will not be going up!” This sounds like great news to me. It remains to be seen if it is in fact true, because to date, all I’ve been able to learn is that private insurance will be overtaken by ObamaCare plans and the plans we currently have will be replaced. This is why so many states are opting out of ObamaCare. Too bad West Virginia has been eating it up and forcing it on West Virginians. Maybe we’ll see something change in the near future.

School Employee Fired for Sex with Dog?

May 20, 2013 By

woman with dogMy biggest question here is why? Why would a public school suspend (without pay) a behavioral specialist just for being accused of having sex with a dog? Why would she then be charged with a crime, indicted, and be expected in court this week? After all, she is a consenting adult that presumably did no harm to the animal, performed these acts in the privacy of her own home, and simply lived out the lifestyle choice she desires. What is all the fuss about?

It seems to me that if this woman wants to have sex with her dog in the privacy of her home that no one should infringe on her right to do so. It’s not as though she actually abused the animal, unlike the man who sexually assaulted his pet peacock to the point of death. This woman, Stephanie Mikles, simply wants to be free to love who – or what – she loves because, as we all know, people can’t decide who (or what) they love, the heart decides that.

You get my point, right?

The same arguments being used by homosexuals to push for marriage redefinition can easily be applied to just about any sexual relationship. Here, let me show you what I mean. [Read more...]

Do You Know Douglas Karpen? He’s the Texas Kermit Gosnell

May 18, 2013 By

By now Americans are familiar with Kermit Gosnell and his infamous “House of Horrors” in Philadelphia. But an explosive new video of three abortion clinic workers in Texas is makes waves as they tell of the abortionist, Douglas Karpen, and how he routinely delivered live babies and then twisted their necks with his bare hands. I reported on Karpen’s cruelty in this article. (Warning: article contains incredibly graphic photos) One report states:

“Unlike Gosnell, who killed babies by jamming medical scissors into their necks, at his Houston abortion clinic former employees of Karpen testify he goes one shocking step further, he kills the babies wit his bare hands by twisting their necks execution style. A new video expose’ of Douglas Karpen has three former abortion clinic employees of abortion practitioner Douglas Karpen exposing horrific practices that took place at his abortion clinic. Because the mainstream media has done little reporting on Karpen thus far, Father Frank Pavone of Priests for Life has put together a new web site: www.TexasGosnell.com and is urging pro-life advocates to make the public aware of the evidence that he is killing babies born alive, and violating numerous other laws. He hopes they will contact state and local officials in Texas to ask for an investigation.”

We urge all our readers to share this information with your friend and family and spread awareness about Douglas Karpen and his inhumane actions. We hope the authorities in Texas will indeed investigate his clinic and if these allegations are true (and there’s no reason to believe they aren’t) that Karpen is charged with murder and convicted, just as Kermit Gosnell has been.

Shocking Photos & Video: Abortionist Twists Baby’s Heads Off

May 17, 2013 By

Another GosnellThat’s it, forget the Mr. nice guy civil tone. I’m going to rant for a few minutes and you can either keep reading or leave this post. Either way, it’s time to get some things off my chest.

What in the name of God Almighty is wrong with people that will be as cruel and despicable as to actually twist the heads off of newborn babies? I can’t even begin to fathom such cruelty and I don’t want to. As the father of three, I was there when all three of my children were born. I watched their first moments of life. My oldest son had to be immediately taken to a special area where a nurse had to perform some special care due to a few minor complications during birth. I remember his little hand holding my finger and thinking what an incredible miracle he was. I swelled with emotion that rarely overtakes me.

So when I picture some inhuman monster (because I won’t call him a doctor) taking that innocent child and twisting his head off, or pushing some instrument into his skull to kill him; it’s infuriating. The fact that this animal is still somewhere killing children in this manner is even more infuriating.

Don’t tell me that Kermit Gosnell is a loner, that he’s some anomaly not representative of the abortion industry. That is nothing more than a bald faced lie and everyone paying minimal attention knows it. Planned Parenthood and NAF affiliated clinics have been caught lying to patients, covering up rape and sex-trafficking, ignoring parental consent laws, ignoring mandatory waiting periods, engaging in fraud, and more. One clinic in Charlotte, NC was closed after the Gosnell trial because of the squalid conditions. The truth is that Gosnell is not an anomaly; he is the standard for abortionists and their clinics nationwide.

Further evidence comes from a video shared last week by Life Dynamics, Inc. of a clinic, now under investigation, where the abortionist was known to suffocate baby’s, drown them, throw them into the trash, and even twist their heads off in order to kill them. [Read more...]

Black Pro-Life Leaders: Gosnell is the Worst Racist

May 16, 2013 By

Black pro-life leaders are blasting Kermit Gosnell as the worst sort of racist, the kind that preys on his own race. A recent article reports: ”Kermit Gosnell is a racist of the worst kind because he preyed on women and young girls of his own race,” Day Gardner, president of the National Black Pro-Life Union, said. “For more than 30 years, Kermit Gosnell participated in and perpetuated the epidemic of black-on-black crime.”

They are now calling for a full investigation into the abortion industry to determine if the practices of Gosnell are happening elsewhere. Of course Planned Parenthood and other groups are terrified that such an investigation will actually happen, because they know what Gosnell did is normal in every clinic. As the leaders pointed out, Planned Parenthood was founded upon racism and most of their clinics are intentionally located in inner cities in minority population centers. They target poor, minority women because they know they can make money off women with no other options that won’t ask a lot of questions. Click here for original article.

Video: Another Abortionist Twisted Heads Off Babies to Kill Them (Warning: Graphic)

May 16, 2013 By

I don’t know where to being and frankly, after the Gosnell trial, I don’t want to. But while Planned Parenthood, NARAL and NAF (National Abortion Federation) want us to believe Gosnell was rogue and anomalous, the truth is that he is the standard, the norm, just doing what every abortionist does every day. This video shares graphic testimony of three witnesses that watched an abortionist do despicable and inhumane things to baby’s born alive in his clinic. I’m warning you, the details are graphic, and it’s very disturbing. Please use caution. If the video doesn’t appear automatically, please refresh your browser. Click here for original article.

Must Read: Brief Article on the Original Meaning of the Establishment Clause

May 16, 2013 By

Jerry Newcomb has written a must read article briefly explaining the original intent and meaning of the establishment clause of the Constitution along with the phrase “separation of church and state.” (Note: the phrase “separation of church and state” appears nowhere in the Constitution, Bill of Right, or Declaration of Independence.) In the article, Newcomb states: “A lot of times when the pro-religious freedom side fights back, we win. (That’s because the Constitution and history are on our side.) But that takes a lot of courage and energy. And many people would rather just go with the flow and turn the other cheek, which is understandable. Yet over time, we find our liberties being chipped away piece by piece.”

He goes on to wonder why the church isn’t more involved in helping to preserve the religious freedom and liberty of our great country. I concur. After all, if religious freedom is lost, who is it that will be most harmed? The obvious answer is all those serving in full-time ministry. So why aren’t more pastors, Christian teachers, and other ministry people more concerned that their livelihood is being threatened? I confess I am completely baffled by this question and corresponding reality. Click here for original article.
