Via Deacon Greg Kandra, an interesting video of a Gorilla that has begun walking upright like humans. I must say that his posture is better than mine. But can we get him to balance a book on his head when he walks…. …and no cracks about in-laws!!!

The Blessing and Dignity of Down Syndrome
Posted in Dignity, tagged Dignity, Down Syndrome, Jesus on January 31, 2011 | 15 Comments »
From my friend, Tina Mahar, who daily teaches me the power of humility through her blog and FB page: “In the fictional novel, The Clowns of God, by Morris West, Jesus comes back to earth, and some people think it’s Him while some don’t. At one point, Jesus is at a school for children with [...]
New Late-Term Abortion Method: Lethal Injection, Then Send to Regular OB/GYN for Delivery
Posted in Abortion, Biomedical Ethics, tagged Abortion, Insurance Fraud, Late Term Abortion, Lethal injection on January 31, 2011 | 4 Comments »
Jill Stanek reports a stunner on her blog today: Revelations about the dangerous and dastardly practices of late-term abortionists, particularly on the East Coast (Brigham, Carhart, Gosnell), continue. Today Operation Rescue exposed yet another new way they are circumventing the system – this time only by killing babies by lethal injection and nothing more. This [...]
The San Francisco March and Counter-Demonstration
Posted in Abortion, tagged San Francisco march on January 28, 2011 | 4 Comments »
On the road, more than 50,000 wholesome-looking pro-lifers. Along the sidewalk, a small, scruffy band of counter-protestors who look like extras from a 1970′s B-movie in hippie horror. The contrast in numbers, dignity, and comportment pretty much speaks to the heart of each movement. H/T Jill Stanek
An Open Letter to NARAL and Planned Parenthood

Take a long, hard look at these videos. These children are going to crush you under their heels, grind your movement to dust. You’re finished. It’s all over. For forty years you have visited on this nation a bloodbath that makes the word “holocaust” seem too inadequate, too impotent to address the dimensions of your [...]

I’ve met people who have discovered that their mothers have had abortions, and it fills them with horror, doubt, confusion, fear, dread, regret, guilt, and a host of other emotions. Theresa Bonopartis of Lumina has developed a powerful weekend of healing for these siblings. Today I received the following from her. Please distribute this with [...]
Raw Agony and God’s Merciful Healing=Silent No More
Posted in Abortion, tagged march for life, Post-abortion, Silent No More on January 26, 2011 | 11 Comments »
I stand with them every year at the Supreme Court Steps and pray them on through their gut-wrenching testimonies. It’s overwhelming at times, the raw agony, the broken lives, the unrealized potential, the shattered dreams. The guilt and shame. The Redemption. I listen to these post-abortive women’s stories and find myself retreating into a cocoon [...]
The Counter Counter-Culture
Posted in Abortion, tagged Abortion, Baby Boomer, Counter-Culture, march for life on January 25, 2011 | 6 Comments »
Yesterday I participated in the March for Life in Washington, D.C. It was a day of solemnity and joy, of sorrowful remembrance and youthful optimism. The number of young people present was staggering, and the pro-choice world shudders at what they are seeing. They have good reason to stay up nights, with visages such as [...]

” How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!’ “ ~Isaiah 52:7 They’re all here in Washington DC. Hundreds of thousands of happy feet attached to hundreds of thousands of joyful warriors, [...]
Fratricide, Genocide, and the Fate of the African-American Community
Posted in Abortion, tagged Abortion, genocide, Kermit Gosnell, Philadelphia, Walter Hoye, Women's Medical Society on January 22, 2011 | 3 Comments »
Today I wish to speak of two very different men, both of whom are African-Americans, both of whom are warriors, one of whom has gone to jail, and the other who may very well spend his remaining years rotting behind bars. One is a hero to me, and a mentor. The other is so twisted [...]
NARAL Blogging for Choice (Part II)
Posted in Abortion, tagged NARAL Blogging for Choice on January 22, 2011 | 53 Comments »
Well, I understand that NARAL was swamped by pro-lifers who crashed their demonic little party. Well done, thou good and faithful servants. While I would have loved to spend my whole day tweeting with the pro-abort girls’ club who were decrying the pro-life movement as a bastion of male domination (still on that thread-bare whine [...]
Kermit Gosnell and the Legality of Mass Murder

For those who may not have heard of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, the notorious late term abortionist in Philadelphia (City of Brotherly Love) was arrested and charged with eight counts of first degree murder. One was a mother and the others were very late term babies, beyond the 24-week limit under law, who were born alive, [...]
