Lives Touched, Changed And Saved

Pregnancy can be a scary and vulnerable time in a woman’s life. Facing an unplanned or untimely pregnancy can be especially hard. Pregnant women need a reliable source of information before making important decisions. She needs to understand all of her options in order to truly have a choice. Where can she turn in her hour of need? A pregnancy resource center (PRC) offers pregnancy tests and faith based options counseling - and so much more! Other supportive services might include...

‘Planned’ Eugenics

This fall, Planned Parenthood gleefully announced yet another anniversary. Ninety-seven years old and counting, Planned Parenthood began as the American Birth Control League, the brainchild of extreme leftist and known eugenicist, Margaret Sanger. Sanger's lifelong ambition was to reduce the world's population, particularly the poor and "unfit," through birth control: a plan she said would be the "salvation of American civilization”. Other infamous remarks attributed to Margaret Sanger:...

Beating Heart Cadavers

The National Network for Organ Donors, and other similar organizations, work to ensure that “every single person in the United States who needs a transplant gets one”. Clearly, organ donation has changed the face of medicine for nearly 50 years, but at what cost? No one could have envisioned the growth that transplantation science would achieve or how it would affect biomedical ethics, essentially redefining death. Beating heart cadavers, those thought to be brain dead, traditionally receive...

Rage To Redemption: One Man’s Perspective On Abortion

“The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships.” ~ Mother Teresa Among those who favor abortion - the deliberate killing of a preborn child – women’s rights and wellbeing typically begin and end the arguments in favor of abortion on demand. Pro-life advocates almost always ask, “What about the rights and wellbeing of the preborn children?” But there is a...

Proliferate The Pro Life Rate

“They will know we are Christians by our love.” This is one of my favorite songs to sing in Church. They will know we are Christians by our love. They will NOT know we are Christians by our apologetics. They will NOT know we are Christians by our logical proofs, as to exactly why abortion is wrong! Now these proofs are good, and these apologetics are very useful tools. They are important to have, so that we can defend what we believe in. But when there is a young, frightened mother at a stage...

GMO Humans: The Countdown Begins

Today is the last day of a landmark conference in Washington, D.C. The International Summit on Human Gene Editing . Formerly referred to as “germline intervention”, Human Gene Editing (HGE) is the creation of a genetically modified human. HGE changes made to a human child at an embryonic level will be passed through normal sexual reproduction to all future offspring. This emerging technology has profound implications for the future of the human race. Advocates hope to bring generational...

DNR, You Have ZERO Rights To Decide

The Journal of Medical Ethics published on March 17, 2016 a survey compiled from 490 out of 3000 practicing neonatologists. The survey showed 76% of the neonatologists thought it was ethically permissible to issue a ‘Do Not Attempt Resuscitation’, (DNAR), without asking or notifying the parents for an infant when they “felt it impossible” for the child to survive.

On The Books: New Pro-Life Laws Go Into Effect July 1

The Georgia Right To Life (GRTL) legislative team worked tirelessly during the 2016 Legislative Session to see that pro-personhood bills were passed and that anti-life bills were stopped. The result of those efforts is that two new pieces of life-affirming legislation will go into law on July 1, 2016 in Georgia and protect thousands of women, children, disabled, and terminally ill patients. The first measure on the books is Senate Science & Technology Committee Chairman Bruce Thompson’s SB...

The Rundown – Pro-Life Legislative Update February 8, 2016

The Rundown - Legislative Days 13-16 Week 4 (Legislative Days 13-16) was spent in meetings, coordinating with other conservative organizations, and formulating strategy for multiple pieces of legislation. Time spent testifying in committees and voting for bills is typically overshadowed by how much time is spent working behind the scenes. Committee Chairmen and members often want to discuss legislation privately and personally so they're able to enter the Committee setting with an...
