GRTL’s promotion of Personhood includes informing our supporters on ways to uphold and maintain the protection of human lives, including times when your constitutional rights are being infringed. Failure to do so would be irresponsible and a violation of our mission.
What are stem cells? Stem cells, put simply, are the building blocks of life. When you were conceived, your body was entirely made up of stem cells. Stem cells can replicate indefinitely, and can become any type of cells, like brain cells, heart cells, muscle cells, and skin cells. Did you ever wonder how your body grew from seemingly nothing? The answer is in the miracle of stem cells. What is stem cell research? Stem cell research is based on the idea that if you inject stem cells into a...
The morality of embryonic stem cell research was one of the most contentious pro-life debates of the mid-2000s. Some researchers intensely pushed for the acceptance of this research.
For infertile couples struggling to have children, in vitro fertilization (IVF) may seem to provide a beacon of hope. However, there are ethical issues Christians need to consider. According to Genetics and Society.org, “Since August 1991 more than 3.5 million human embryos have been created. Of the embryos created, almost 840,000 were put into storage for future use and more than 2000 were stored for donation. Almost 5,900 were set aside for experimentation.” Embryonic Children Die While GRTL...
For infertile couples struggling to have children, in vitro fertilization (IVF) may seem to provide a means to fulfill their desire to have children. However, there are ethical issues Christians need to consider. According to Genetics and Society.org, “Since August 1991 more than 3.5 million human embryos, [innocent human babies], have been created. Of the embryos created, almost 840,000 were put into storage for future use, and more than 2000 were stored for donation. Almost 5,900 were set...

The Bible declares that we humans are “fearfully and wonderfully made” (Psalm 139.14). Clearly, the human body is the most complex and unique organism God created. Fundamental to our complexity are stem cells, of which there are two kinds. The first being embryonic stem cells, which develop shortly after fertilization and are the creation of a new person. The second type adult, or somatic stem cells, are present throughout all the tissues and organs of our bodies. Because of the...
It’s all done in the name of “science.” The so-called noble quest to heal the sick and improve the quality of life. Tragically, embryo and stem cell experimentation are done in secret as much as possible, and for good reason. Proponents know that if people could see babies born alive being cut open to harvest their organs while their hearts are still beating there would be public outrage. The following is an update on various aspects of this total disregard for the Personhood of pre-born...
Researchers won’t be content until they can create babies in a laboratory—trying to rival God as being the source of human life. Astonishingly, four research groups recently released papers showing that they’ve created hollow balls of cells that closely resemble human embryos. Some involved the use of embryonic stem cells obtained from aborted children. Others reprogrammed human skin or blood cells known as induced pluripotent cells (iPS). Researchers said their near human embryos at the stage...
November 2020 – Article 2: Imagine your deepest, private thoughts posted on Facebook. Can’t happen? Stay tuned. That could become reality as the rush to better link humans with computers picks up steam. Facebook is pursuing a brain-reading helmet-like device that uses infrared light to peer into the brain that would allow people to type 100 words per minute just by thinking. “You’ll be able to think something and your friends will be able to immediately experience it too if you’d like,”...
