Mr. Infanticide Calls Out McCain on Abortion

The cycle is running its course once again. Eight years ago we were all warned that the evil Bush chimpy war monger was going to make abortion illegal. He was a threat to the very concept of “choice”, “rights” and all the other good connotations that liberals substitute for abortion.
Four years later when Bush ran [...]

Some Arguments Are So Good That There Is No Rebuttal

From the “I wish I had stated it that way” category comes the Anchoress on the nonsensical idea that Catholics should vote for Barack Obama despite his 100% rating from NARAL for his ultra mega liberal stance on abortion.
The WSJ reports that the Obama Catholics justify voting for him in good conscience, despite his abortion [...]

Japanese Catholic Hospital Sets Up First “Baby Drop Box”

An anonymous baby “drop box” in southern Japan has received 17 abandoned babies in its first year since opening last May.
The Catholic-run Jikei Hospital in Kumamoto created the “Stork’s Cradle” after a series of high-profile cases in which babies were left in parks and at supermarkets.
People can leave babies in an incubator via a hatch [...]

More Perspective on the Yale Abortion Art Hoax, Non-Hoax

I was following the incoming links from my Were Yale Professors Willing Dupes in Hoax About ‘Abortion Art’? article when I stumbled upon a very insightful take.
Wanda Rizzuto over at Blog Critics had this to say:
There’s been a bit of outrage over the last few days, but not quite enough. Some people are yakking about [...]

Were Yale Professors Willing Dupes in Hoax About ‘Abortion Art’?

As many of you probably know by now the Yale Daily News was party to a sick and demented hoax by art student Aliza Shvarts who claimed that her senior project documented repeated self induced abortions over a nine month period.
Beginning next Tuesday, Shvarts will be displaying her senior art project, a documentation of a [...]

My take on the youth sex culture in America

Soccer Dad, who has a wonderful blog here, sent me a nice email agreeing with the points I made in my Biology will have its way post. He added an anecdote about Planned Parenthood: “The archdiocese of Baltimore announced that it would pay for counseling for women who had undergone abortions. Planned Parenthood objected. It [...]

Pro-Life Gets a Correct Ruling From The 9th Circuit Court

The Ninth Circuit, which is the laughing stock of the federal judiciary because it is overruled so often, did something bizarre yesterday: it issued a Constitutionally correct decision. Not only that, the decision meant that a citizens’ group will be able to engage in free speech that is contrary to the type of speech the [...]

The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet ran a segment this morning that promoted the Rutgers University Sex, ETC. site for teens. Unfortunately I was not able to watch the program so I can not comment on the specifics of the segment [...]

Christian Right + Abortion = Hillary Clinton

I recently had an e-mail exchange with Windham, Maine Pastor Joseph Swank, a seemingly rather well connected blogger who wrote an article entitled, Never Vote For An Abortion Candidate. While most of the article was making sure it was clear that he believed abortion to be wrong, he did manage to touch on his [...]

Whacked Priorities

A few weeks ago, the dog fighting ring scandal involving a famous NFL player hit the wire and we’ve heard nothing else since. The torture and treatment of those dogs is, of course, reprehensible. But the level of outrage about these animals’ predicament has puzzled me somewhat. I am a dog lover. I have had [...]
