The Ides Of March (Of Dimes)

For years, Georgia Right to Life has held a no-support policy for the March of Dimes (MOD). One of the most frequent questions we are asked is if there is any new information on MOD, or is our boycott based on old information? After some recent study, there is new information. However, it does not bode well for the March of Dimes. Just to refresh you, the MOD boycott began in 1972, because they sponsored and pushed the technique of amniocentesis in order to diagnose handicapped children in the...

The Decline Of The Human Family

For decades, Americans have been warned of an impending population explosion that would perhaps threaten our very existence.  The Population Bomb, published in 1968, by Professor Paul R. Ehrlich, warned of approaching mass starvation due to overpopulation. Our children have long been taught that a growing population is bad for the environment and society; that our planet cannot sustain future population growth. The media further propagates the teaching. Ironically, experts today find that we...

It’s A Dog’s World!

If you’re like me, those animal cruelty commercials really pull at my heart strings.  How can someone abuse a helpless animal in such heinous ways? Nowhere do I find the same attention shown to ending abortion or promoting adoption. Sadly it appears that we have become a society that places more value on animals’ lives than it does human lives.  For if that is not true, how can we allow the ultimate abuse of some 3,000 preborn children per day being torn limb from limb (over 3,000 per day,...

Thank You, Facebook

In most pro-life circles, the topic of graphic abortion photos is controversial at best. Personally, I think that graphic images of individuals who have suffered injustice or atrocity should be handled with care and tact, but should be shown. The reason I feel they should be shown is rooted in a rich history of advocacy against evil. During the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps, Allied troops made citizens of nearby towns march through the death chambers to know what they had been...

Termination of Rapist’s Parental Rights (Thompson)

SB 331 authored by Senator Bruce Thompson, allows a woman to prevent her rapist from legitimating her child if the child was conceived during the assault. Often times, rapists will file for parental rights of the child conceived as a result of rape and use the case to force a woman to drop her rape charges against him. This bill would free women from the grip of their assaulter and help keep children safe from predators. Georgia Right to Life supports SB 331. To read SB 331 in its entirety,...
