by Rev. John A. Leies, S.M.

In one of his articles in the respected journal First Things, the late Father Richard John Neuhaus remarked, “The most consequential political event of the past half-century is the Supreme Court Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton decisions of 1973.”

These decisions, he wrote, dramatically reconfigured the nation’s cultural and political life. The moral question, he added, was not when human life begins — as the Supreme Court maintained — but at what point human life should be protected by law. Scientists know when human life begins.  Read more... (712 words, estimated 2:51 mins reading time)

Abortions after 20 weeks are barbaric and gruesome, like something out of a horror movie. Here is a link to a medical drawing of Dilation and Extraction late-term abortion and this is a link to a medical journal article, Induction of Fetal Demise Before Abortion (without illustrations), that describes the process of using a lethal injection–through the uterus and into the fetus–to cause death before induced labor and delivery of a dead baby.  Read more...

Iman Essiet didn’t want to become another negative statistic.  Yet this beautiful African-American woman became pregnant when she was just 16. Iman was living in Brooklyn, New York, being raised by her older sister. Like most young women, she was in search of love.

Deep inside her heart, Iman knew abortion was wrong. She was a professed atheist whose thoughts about abortion didn’t come from a religious background. They had nothing to do with politics either. Iman had just always said she’d never get an abortion, because abortion was murder.  Unfortunately, negative circumstances have a way of driving us to do things we know we shouldn’t.  Read more...

A dear friend of mine recently confessed to me that he was the father of one living daughter and four deceased children.  The four were aborted, three with his consent and one without.  My friend said the pain of those deaths is something he copes with on a daily basis.  “The guilt and pain can be overwhelming,” he said.

Another friend still can’t hold back tears, even after 20 years, when he shares that he took his then-girlfriend to Planned Parenthood to erase the “mistake” they made a few months before their wedding.   Now married for two decades and the parent of four other beautiful children, he recounts how his marriage was difficult and tumultuous for years until they sought counseling.  The root of their conflict and strife?  The abortion.  Read more...

I was reading an article a few years ago about the Personhood Amendment in Florida and how vehemently opposed Planned Parenthood was to this legislation.  The article was full of ridiculous statements and lies, as is anything that favors or quotes Planned Parenthood.

I found it funny that Planned Parenthood actually helped expose their own lies about birth control by admitting that the Personhood Amendment would outlaw chemical birth control.  If this is true then the pro-life claim that chemical birth control often destroys a human person in the form of a zygote before implantation must also be true.  Read more...

In 1994 Mother Teresa filed an amicus curiae brief before the U.S. Supreme Court in the cases of Loce v. New Jersey and Krail et al. v. New Jersey. In that brief the famous humanitarian and Catholic saint argued on behalf of the unborn in a way that is remarkably poetic and poignant. Not only does she plead for the rights of the unborn, but powerfully points out the various ways that abortion, ushered in by Roe v. Wade, has coarsened the life of the nation, sowing violence and discord. Her brief remains compelling reading.  Read more... (866 words, estimated 3:28 mins reading time)

I guarantee you – were he alive today, the visionary George Washington would be striving with us to end abortion. In fact he’d probably be on the board of Live Action. The following are five of the key reasons why I believe our Nation’s first President would stand with us.  Read more... (1490 words, estimated 5:58 mins reading time)

“Anti-abortionists, what do you want for America? What is your vision for our country? You post here often and you are welcome. But I cannot fathom what you actually want. Do you want women imprisoned and forced to give birth? Do you want every miscarriage investigated as a potential homicide? Do you want abortion doctors and nurses sent to prison for murder? If you had absolute power, what kind of state would you create? I am asking this sincerely. We see your posts all the time on this page, but I cannot discover what your vision for America truly is. (I hope anti-abortionists on the page will respond sincerely.)”  [Anne Rice]  Read more... (5090 words, estimated 20:22 mins reading time)
