Fearfully and Wonderfully Made in a Fallen World

7/29/2011

 
"For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them."Psalm 139 indicates the Creator regards all human beings as valuable. God cares about the intricate details of our formation. Using poetical language, the psalm depicts God knitting us together, orchestrating every chromosome in our genetic makeup. He gave us his image, making us unlike any other creatures in his creation (Gen. 1:27). This was true before the Fall and remains true even after our demise into sin.This passage reveals great truths about God’s sovereignty over life in its earliest stages. God is the author of all life. How glorious that a holy God would be so intimately involved in our lives!

Baby Girl Lies in Open Casket After Late-Term Abortion

7/29/2011

 
A funeral service was conducted this past week for an aborted baby, whose tiny body had been recently retrieved from an abortion clinic by pro-life activists at Operation Save America.
“We are here because this baby was killed in the darkness, and we come to honor her in the bright light of day,” Fr. Frank Pavone declared in his remarks. “The abortion industry wants to hide the violence done to these children, but we must be committed to expose it. Therefore we need to hold many more of these services, with tens of thousands of people looking at these children and recommitting themselves to end abortion."
Fr. Frank [National Director of Priests for Life] invited any pro-life activists who obtain the remains of aborted children to be in contact with him to arrange for a proper wake service and burial.

Abortion Clinic Closes for the Day as “LIFE” Balloons Fly Proudly

7/29/2011

 
I never thought I would see the day when balloons would be instrumental in saving lives, but last Saturday, that happened in Sacramento, California. A pro-life flash-mob assembled, much like the choirs that assemble in malls to sing Handel’s “Hallelujah” chorus. As the abortion clinic decided to close for the day, many were, indeed, singing hallelujah.
At the Wright Street Feminist Women’s Health Center, you could look down the street and see groups of people amassing to peacefully pray for an end to abortion, holding yellow helium-filled balloons with the word “LIFE” on them. Apparently, the balloons and prayers were enough to get the attention of the upper-level management, the abortuary’s attorney, and many media outlets.

Pro-Life Law Firm May Appeal Decision on Obama, ESCR Funding

7/28/2011

 
A pro-life law firm says it may appeal a decision by a federal judge dismissing a lawsuit filed against the executive order President Barack Obama issued forcing Americans to pay for embryonic stem cell research.
The Alliance Defense Fund, responding to today’s ruling by Judge Lamberth saying he must follow the decision of a Federal appeals court that wanted the case thrown out, said its attorneys will join Samuel B. Casey of the Jubilee Campaign’s Law of Life Project and pro-life attorney Tom Hungar to consider filing the appeal. The pro-life legal team members are weighing all of their options for appeal in light of a federal judge’s ruling that the embryonic funding can continue despite it violating a 1996 law prohibiting the funding of research destroying human embryos.
“Americans should not be forced to pay for experiments that destroy human life, have produced no real-world treatments, and violate federal law,” said ADF Senior Counsel Steven H. Aden.

Judge Dismisses Suit Against Obama Embryonic Stem Cell Funding

7/28/2011

 
A federal judge has dismissed one of the lawsuits filed against President Barack Obama’s executive order forcing taxpayers to finance embryonic stem cell research involving the destruction of human life.
Last August, U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth ruled that Obama executive order likely violates that law against federal funding of embryo destruction. But, in April, a federal appeals court ruledObama can force taxpayers to fund embryonic stem cell research that has never helped any patients.

Pro-Life Victory: North Carolina House Overrides Governor’s Veto

7/28/2011

 
In an amazing turn of events, North Carolina’s Woman’s Right to Know Act went from being one vote shy last month to having enough to override Governor Beverly Perdue’s veto on Tuesday, by a vote of 72-47.
The North Carolina state Senate completed the bid to overturn a veto by pro-abortion Gov. Bev Perdue of a bill that would allow women a chance to see an  ultrasound of their unborn children.
North Carolina lawmakers have approved legislation to help women avoid abortions and the bill includes the ultrasound provision and a waiting period. The measure helps women obtain information about abortion’s risks and alternatives they may not otherwise receive before an abortion. The bill also allows women a chance to see an ultrasound of their unborn baby, something abortion centers routinely do but don’t let women see.

Missouri Right to Life Score Cards 2011

7/28/2011

 
One of the most important tasks that Missouri Right to Life performs is tracking the voting records and actions of your legislators as they work through hundreds of bills that come before them each year. 
Missouri Right to Life tracks votes on the most important issues of all: the protection of innocent human lives in regards to abortion, human cloning, embryonic stem cell research and rationing or denying health care.  The Board of Directors of MRL takes this responsibility seriously and works closely with our legislative team throughout the year.

Cambell's op.ed. on Casey Anthony

7/17/2011

 
She was the perfect villainess: a callous, self-centered, derelict mother straight out of central casting. When her toddler daughter disappeared, she partied for a month without reporting the child missing. Then she blamed everyone from a fictional nanny to her own parents for the demise of the little girl whose remains eventually were found rotting in the woods.
That outrage makes a certain sense. Anthony embodies in extreme, pathological form the same narcissistic syndrome that afflicts many men and women today who mistakenly believe that the world revolves around their desires and fail to recognize that they owe anything to the children they conceive.
As comforting as it is to regard Anthony as a unique case of evil incarnate, however, the deadly consequences of her me-first fixation are more common than we care to believe. And, too often, the violence done to children in the name of protecting adult freedom not only goes unpunished, it is not even prosecuted.

Victory for Babies and Protection of Women! HB 213 & SB 65 Become Law

7/17/2011

 
During the 2011 Legislative Session, the Missouri Senate and House each took up and passed their respective bills banning late-term abortions after 20 weeks gestation except when continuation of the pregnancy will create a serious risk of substantial and irreversible physical impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant mother.
Today, as he did on the 2010 pro-life legislation, Governor Nixon allowed this legislation to become law.  Per the Missouri Constitution, Governor Nixon's decision to neither veto nor sign HB 213 and SB 65 is a decision to allow these bills to go into effect.  
Because of Governor Nixon's decision, Missouri law now protects babies in their last trimester before birth from the slaughter of abortion.  This decision saves lives and protects women from the risks of a late-term abortion.  Missouri Right to Life has worked hard for years to find ways to protect innocent human lives and women in crisis pregnancies.

Congress Should Probe Planned Parenthood Abortion Biz

7/17/2011

 
The taxpayer-funded abortion business was featured in a new Americans United for Life report that prompted a press conference today. The report featured a groundbreaking analysis of the nation’s largest abortion business and saying it has uncovered evidence of systemic financial irregularities within the abortion giant, which receives more than $363 million in federal and state taxpayer funding, and that Congress should investigate.
Congressman Doug Lamborn, a Colorado Republican, Rep. Chris Smith, a New Jersey Republican, and Rep. Bill Huizenga, a Michigan Republican, joined the event as well. Unfortunately, the pro-life lawmakers said they didn’t expect much action from the Obama administration on holding Planned Parenthood accountable. “We’re talking about those things,” Ellmers said. “We are going to continue this fight.”
