There has been no greater pro-life voice than the Catholic Church.
From Pope Paul VI’s Humanae Vitae to John Paul the Great’s Theology of the Body and Evangelium Vitae, to all the grassroot initiatives and organizations rooted in Catholic teaching and tradition, to the countless bishops, priests, and lay men and women who have spoken [...]
Real choice that is.
Those in favor of legal abortion champion that they are the movement of choice. They call themselves pro-choice and for reproductive choice, using the positive words to hide what they actually stand for. Who isn’t for choice? And so many in the pro-life movement know, the pro-choice movement is known to be [...]

Oklahoma’s new law requiring full disclosure and ultrasounds to women before abortion has been blocked by a restraining order, so the abortion business could proceed as usual.

Last week, a first time mother in Italy went in for an abortion after prenatal scans indicated the child may have had disabilities. What happened next is chilling and heartbreaking.
However, the infant survived the procedure, carried out on Saturday in the Rossano Calabro hospital, and was left by doctors to die. He was discovered [...]

The speculation surrounding the health care bill has been confusing and head splitting–to say the least.
But it’s over.
