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.

Engaging Weekend: White House Says Happy Mother’s Day by Celebrating Abortion Mandate, FDA Says Abortion Drug Ok for Teens but Not Caffeine, Christian Printer Says No to Homosexual Magazine

White House Celebrates Mother’s Day Promoting HHS Abortion Mandate

Nothing says “Happy Mother’s Day” like the celebration of…abortion? Sure it might sound insane to most sane human beings, but that didn’t stop the White House from tweeting about the hated HHS mandate. A recent article reports: “The White House found a way to celebrate Mother’s Day early, by sending out a series of tweets today promoting Obamacare. The official White House Twitter account specifically touting the HHS abortion mandate that compels religious groups to pay for birth control and drugs that may cause abortions under their employee health care plans. The mandate is so egregious it has drawn more than 100 lawsuits from religious groups, business, school and others who are not allowed to opt out under the narrow provisions.” Only the Obama administration would find it appropriate to celebrate moms by patting themselves on the back for one of the worst abortion bills in U.S. history. Never mind that they continued to be sued left and right by religious companies offended at the very thought of paying for abortion and abortion services. Maybe Obama and his regime can look for more appropriate ways of celebrating all the women who chose life and rejected the selfish notions of abortion. Click here for original article.

Engaging Weekend: Teen Flushes Premature Baby in Toilet, Obama “Comfortable” with Giving 15 Year Old Abortion Drugs, The Primary Mission of the Church

Pennsylvania teen threw her dead baby in school trashcan

Let’s call this the Gosnell effect: a total indifference to human life so depraved that a person will actually throw another human being in the trash can…after trying to flush him down the toilet. Here’s the details: “Cherlie LaFleur, 19, allegedly tried to flush the dead newborn down a toilet at first but resorted to the garbage bin instead, at McCaskey East High School in Lancaster. Police are still investigating whether the premature child, born 27 to 29 weeks after conception, was stillborn or intentionally killed…LaFleur was charged Wednesday with the misdemeanor of concealing the death of a child, which will stand regardless of whether the child was born dead or alive.” This is the face of abortion; Gosnell is the face of abortion. An indifference to human life so great that it will snip spinal cords, flush, and throw life into the garbage. My question though is: “why is this a crime?” If abortion is legal why can’t a woman give birth and drown her infant before throwing the child away? Is it really all that different from Gosnell and abortion clinics across the country do daily? The dolled up face of abortion Planned Parenthood wants you to believe doesn’t exist, this is the real face of abortion. So much for “safe, legal, and rare.” Click here for original article.

Six Degrees of Kermit Gosnell: Links to Planned Parenthood, Obama

If you didn’t know better, you would think Kermit Gosnell, Planned Parenthood, and President Obama were three separate entities unrelated in any way. Of course, informed people know better. What informed people know is that Planned Parenthood in Philadelphia was well aware of Kermit Gosnell and his “House or Horrors” operating in town. They were aware due to the numerous complaints from women who would visit, then decide to go to Planned Parenthood and complain about the squalid conditions. Planned Parenthood “encouraged” women to complain to the Department of Health, but did nothing else. Planned Parenthood cares nothing for women, outside of their ability to take their money in exchange for abortions. So it’s no wonder Planned Parenthood did nothing to protect women from the horrors of Gosnell’s clinic. And President Obama, well, we all know he loves Planned Parenthood and continues giving them millions of our tax dollars. That’s a great circle of friends there. Click here for original article.

Engaging Weekend: Slate Magazine Endorses Polygamy, Boy Scouts poised to Reverse Ban on Homosexuals, Boy Abducted By Government for Being Home Schooled

SLATE: ‘MARRIAGE EQUALITY’ INCLUDES POLYGAMY

We are among the voices declaring that if the government redefines marriage for homosexuals, it will have to redefine it for other groups – such as polygamists, pedophiliacs, etc. – or be guilty of the same discrimination it now accuses traditional marriage advocates of. We are often ridiculed for this position, and yet we are being proven right as these fringe groups begin lining up to declare a “Constitutional right” to their lifestyle choice. Most recently, Slate magazine has printed its full endorsement of polygamy. They say: “The definition of marriage is plastic. Just like heterosexual marriage is no better or worse than homosexual marriage, marriage between two consenting adults is not inherently more or less “correct” than marriage among three (or four, or six) consenting adults. Though polygamists are a minority—a tiny minority, in fact—freedom has no value unless it extends to even the smallest and most marginalized groups among us.” Ugh, where do I begin to pick this apart? Marriage is not the business of the government; it is something that should be in the hands of the people to protect. Traditional marriage holds value for children, families, and society as a whole whereas other arrangements do not. If you read between the lines here, Slate is basically saying anyone should be allowed to do anything. Where does it stop? Click here for original article.

Engaging Weekend: 9 Things to Know About the Gosnell Murder Trial, Workers Recount Abortion Doc’s Clinic of Horrors, West Virginia Schools Under Fire for Abstinence Message

9 Things You Should Know About the Gosnell Infanticide and Murder Trial

The media has largely ignored the murder trial of Kermit Gosnell. He is accused of killing at least one woman attempting to perform an abortion, and also killing 7 infants born alive during botched abortions. He spent 30 years performing illegal abortions, making millions, while not having a medical degree or certification. In this recent article by The Gospel Coalition, Joe Carter shares 9 things you won’t hear in the mainstream media because they are attempting to cover up his trial and keep it from the public in order to push their radical abortion agenda. Groups like Planned Parenthood haven’t even condemned Gosnell and his work though it is illegal. This shows the depths of depravity the abortion industry is willing to accept to make a few bucks killing children. At the end of the article is the 3801 Lancaster Film Project video that you can watch. But be warned, it is graphic. Click here for original article.

Engaging Weekend: Transgender Man Says He Made a Mistake, Radio Host Says Jesus “May have been gay,” Federal Judge Approves Abortion Drug for Girls Any Age Without Prescription

I’m Questioning My Gender Again’: Transgender Woman Transitions Back To Man

We are told we should celebrate transgender people and their “bravery” for living as the opposite sex. But how often do you hear about those that believe they made a mistake and want to undo it all? That’s the case of a 24 year old man that transitioned to a woman but now believes he made a mistake and wants to go back to being a man. A recent article reports: “Daniela had transitioned from male to female in her late teens. Now at 24-years-old, she was wondering if she’d made the right decision. She decided to transition back to her birth sex, saying it would be easier for her to live as a gay man than as a transgender woman. ‘I worked so hard to become this person…It’s just all disappearing. It’s hard. I guess I’m kind of mourning the loss of someone, you know?’” These might be some of the saddest words I’ve ever read. This young man is so confused, and what he needs is someone to come beside him and show him how to be a man. Instead he has a society cheering his confusion on, encouraging him to “celebrate” being confused and living as someone he was never created to be. Click here for original article.

Attorneys General Push Obama for Religious Exemption in HHS Mandate

When it comes to ObamaCare, West Virginia hasn’t exactly set a great example of rejecting the horrible legislation. In fact, West Virginia has decided to embrace it and force its citizens to pay for it. This is just another example of our lawmakers supporting big government expansion. But, some good news emerged when it was reported that West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey has joined a letter to the Obama administration asking for greater religious protections against the HHS mandate. A recent article reports: “Twelve attorney generals have sent a letter to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services asking that it expand the very narrow religious exemptions in the HHS mandate that require religious groups and companies to pay for birth control or drugs that may cause abortions…The letter signed by Pruitt cites the Religious Freedom Restoration Act as reason to grant broader exemptions to the federal act, including to all religious-affiliated nonprofits and to certain for-profit companies.” This is very encouraging as religious freedom has been under aggressive attack in recent years and West Virginia lawmakers seems uninterested in protecting our rights from those attacks. We thank AG Morrisey for his willingness to protect the religious freedoms of West Virginians and hope he will continue to stand for freedom. Click here for original article.

Engaging Weekend: Middle School Student Punished for Wearing Abstinence Shirt, Pro-Life Mobile App Helps Women, Manchin Breaks With Democrats on HHS Mandate

Middle School student wears abstinence t-shirt, school makes her remove it and wear ‘punishment’ t-shirt

A middle school in Florida is under fire after they made a student, Summer Schreiner, remove the pro-abstinence shirt she was wearing and put on a “discipline shirt” instead. A recent article reports: “The shirt actually says on the front ‘Don’t Drink & Park: Accidents Cause Kids’ and then shows a parked car below it. Clearly it’s a tame abstinence message but there’s really no sexual innuendo on it. And then she’s told to remove it and she’s made to wear a shirt the school supplies especially for these instances of ‘dress code violations’ that says ‘Tomorrow I will dress for success.’” I can see why they made her remove it; we can’t have kids promoting abstinence at schools where underage kids are present, that sends a bad message? This is absurdity at the highest level. To think that this shirt is somehow offensive, or violates some policy is ridiculous. I bet if she would have worn some pro-Planned Parenthood shirt that promotes abortion or the LGBT agenda she would have been unbothered. But those abstinence shirts are just too much, they have to go. This is what happens when the government is given oversight of education and parents ignore their responsibility to be engaged in that same education. They promote poor behaviors and actions while punishing character and values. Click here to watch the video or see original article.

Engaging Weekend: Planned Parenthood Threatens to Sue Abby Johnson, Girl Allowed to Play on boys Football Team, history Channel’s “The Bible” Gets Great Ratings.

Planned Parenthood Threatens to Sue Pro-Lifer

Planned Parenthood, the criminal organization always ready to sue someone for something, is now threatening to sue former clinic director Abby Johnson for her work helping abortion clinic workers leave their jobs. Johnson’s organization And Then There Were None helps abortion clinic workers find new jobs and ministers to them through post-abortion clinic counseling. Of course Planned Parenthood doesn’t like this, and wants their workers to feel trapped, I mean comfortable in their role of killing unborn children. So they are threatening to sue Johnson and her organization if they don’t stop helping clinic workers find new jobs. This further illustrates how much of a prison the abortion industry really is. They don’t want women freed from their life of killing because they know those women will help free other women, just as Abby Johnson is doing. These sorts of thug tactics from Planned Parenthood are all they have left. The abortion industry is shrinking, states are passing laws and the culture of life is winning. We can expect more stories like this to pop up. Click here for original article.
