About the song: One in a Billion Choices
Life is so precious, and we seem to have lost that idea here in our country, and the Lord spoke to my heart sharing that each person is created for a special mission, and each name is given to us by God, he knew us before we were born Jermiah 1:5

Refain:
You were one in a Billion Choices
and God chosen you,
so stop look and listen
to the beauty of your name
Lyrics:
As she struggles with the questions of life,
a baby is on the way
she is nobody's wife
praying she hears the Lord Say
You know the father of Lies,
and the creator of fears
comes to kill and destroy life
my child, dry your tears
Wayne is a Builder,
Robert bright Fame
William means protector of life
search for the meaning of your name
Ernie is determination
Peter is a Rock
Men are called to lead nations
and Shepherd his flock
You were One in a Billion Choices
and God has chosen you
so stop, look and listen
to the beauty of your name
Patricia means noble one
Helen is a light
Diane divine one
You will see what is right
Carolyn means a song of Joy
Virginia is pure
God loves each girl and boy
Each Birth must be asssured
You were one in a billion choices
and God Chosen You
So stop, look and listen
to the beauty of your name
Jesus means salvation,
he's the restorer of life
his mission was in his name
look and see yours may be the same
look and see yours may be the same
You were one in a billion choices
and God chosen you
so stop, look and listen
to the beauty of your name

Applause from hell
Applause from hell
Fr. Frank Pavone
National Director, Priests for Life
Spanish Version
Listen to this column in MP3 format
Fr. Frank's Columns are Podcast
If we think of hell, we might imagine screams coming out of the flames, or the sinister laughter of the devil. But the sound I recently heard coming from there was that of applause.
What I heard was an audiotape of Dr. Martin Haskell giving a presentation at the 16th Annual Meeting of the National Abortion Federation Conference in 1992 in San Diego. It was a gathering of abortionists -- men and women who make their living by killing babies. Haskell was describing to his audience how to do a partial-birth abortion. Listen to his words about how this procedure takes place:
“The surgeon then introduces large grasping forceps … through the vaginal and cervical canal … He moves the tip of the instrument carefully towards the fetal lower extremities -- and pulls the extremity into the vagina …The surgeon then uses his fingers to deliver the opposite lower extremity, then the torso, the shoulders, and the upper extremities. The skull lodges in the internal os. The fetus is oriented … spine up … The surgeon then takes a pair of blunt curved Metzenbaum scissors in the right hand. … the surgeon then forces the scissors into the base of the skull--spreads the scissors to enlarge the opening. The surgeon--surgeon then introduces a suction catheter into this hole and evacuates the skull contents.”
Haskell, having described these brutal details, shows his audience a video of himself doing one of these procedures. And at the end of the video, after the sound of the suction machine taking the brains out of the baby’s head, the audience applauds.
That, my friends, is applause from hell.
We often speak about “the fires of hell.” It is also true, however, to say that hell is very cold. It is the absence of all conscience, of all pity, of all love. That kind of hell is reflected on earth when a group of human beings can sit around a video machine, watch someone deliberately kill a baby, and then applaud. That’s the heart and soul of the abortion industry. That’s the heart and soul of “pro-choice.”
It’s the same chilling attitude of which Dr. Bernard Nathanson repented. He writes about how he felt after he killed his own child by abortion. “I swear to you that I had no feelings aside from the sense of accomplishment, the pride of expertise. On inspecting the contents of the bag I felt only the satisfaction of knowing that I had done a thorough job” (The Hand of God, p.60).
I am convinced that the first and overall most effective way to fight abortion is to expose it. People need to hear descriptions of the procedure, see what it looks like, and get a glimpse into the utter corruption of the abortion industry. Saint Paul tells the Ephesians, “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them” (Eph. 5:11). Let’s put Paul’s words into practice and spread the information in this column!

As I was going through news stories contemplating items to discuss for the next radio show I came across "Protesting the Protesters", an awful story of how politicians want to stifle the free speech rights of pro-lifers outside of abortion facilities. You see, most ardent abortion advocates want you to believe that pro-lifers who counsel pregnant moms outside of abortion facilities are mean-spirited, harass, bully, intimidate, yell and scream. Although I have witnessed one or two of these well-meaning but far from effective pro-life activists outside of abortion facilities, in most cases the sidewalk counselors I meet are some of the most compassionate, caring individuals you will ever meet.
What you will gather from the story though is its not the pregnant moms who oppose sidewalk counselors from approaching them, it's the abortion facility workers and volunteers as well as the hardcore abortion advocates. Why? An effective sidewalk counselor will convince the pregnant mom of the truth, that abortion not only will kill her baby but cause her emotional, physical and even spiritual trauma in the days, weeks and years to come. This is called a "save." A save is what it is – a baby's life spared from death and his/her mom spared the trauma associated with abortion. This article interviewed a young man, Brian Stong who happened to record his 16th save that morning. What a testimony of how a young person can have such a great impact in this world. Praise God for Brian!
Unfortunately this may be a tactic you will see in many cities across America – bills passed so 3rd parties (abortion facility workers, volunteers and activists) can press charges against sidewalk counselors with little or no proof, therefore possibly intimidating pro-lifers from praying at abortion facilities and offering pregnant, scared moms an alternative to abortion. This will then possibly lower the number of "saves" (babies alive, moms spared the trauma).
While we are waiting for the outcome of this bill keep New York City Council Speaker Ms. Quinn in your prayers and prayerfully consider contacting her and urging her not to stifle free speech while setting a precedent that could be horrific for pro-lifers across the country. I encourage you to contact her via her web site. You can find the email addresses for all City Council members here, and I urge you to join the Expectant Mother Care Facebook group.
In the meantime, keep going to the abortion facilities, pray for the end of abortion, offer counseling, provide services and be the change that so many in America covet to see.
God bless

News & Commentary
On this issue of the Rock for Life Podcast Erik and Phil discuss the following news stories:
Last week we mentioned how Lila Rose and the team at LiveActionFilms.org released the first video in their latest undercover series called the Mona Lisa Project. This week, we're letting you know that they've done it again! Another week, another city, and yet another episode of irresponsible Planned Parenthood workers showing that they are willing to break the law.
You can watch the video here, but then make sure you embed the video on your blog or MySpace/Facebook profile so that others can view them! Remember, WE are FUNDING this and the rest of Planned Parenthood's clinics with over $300 million each year!
Remember, you can meet Lila Rose in person at our Training and Activism Week (see lead item in this report).
The Indiana Attorney General's office is investigating Planned Parenthood for...well, take your pick.
As Erik mentioned in his commentary, the New York City Council is preparing to vote on the facist Clinic Access Bill. We cannot stress enough how important it is for you to contact Council Speaker Quinn. Go to her web site and let her know that this attack on free speech must not be passed!
The Catholic-affiliated University of San Fracisco did a good thing by acknowledging they made a mistake when it was revealed that their student health insurance plan included abortions.
A new procedure has been developed for testing preborn babies for Down's Syndrome. This test does not have the high-risk of miscarriage that the current test, amniocentesis, has, but because the vast majority of babies with Down's Syndrome are aborted, this test may increase that abortion rate to above the 90% it currently is at.

A DOCTOR'S WISDOM
A DOCTOR'S WISDOM
A worried woman went to her gynecologist and
said:
'Doctor, I have a serious problem and desperately need your help! My baby
is not even 1 yr. old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close
together.'
So the doctor said: 'Ok, and what do you want me to do?'
She said: 'I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your
help with this.'
The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady:
'I think I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous
for you too.'
She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.
Then he continued: 'You see, in order for you not to have to take care of 2
babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms. This way, you
could rest some before the other one is born. If we're going to kill one of
them, it doesn't matter which one it is. There would be no risk for your
body if you chose the one in your arms.
The lady was horrified and said: 'No doctor! How terrible! It's a crime
to kill a child!
'I agree', the doctor replied. 'But you seemed to be ok with it, so
I thought maybe that was the best solution.
The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point.
He convinced the mom that there is no difference in killing a child that's
already been born and one that's still in the womb. The crime is the same!
If you agree, please forward. Together we can help save precious lives! Please
support those who cannot speak for themselves! Thank You.

This is an opportunity for the Catholic Church to get its act together
If You Despair, Obama Really Wins
Post Election Comment from Monica Migliorino Miller, Dir. of CPS
Obama's election presents us with an opportunity for deep holiness.
With the election of Obama our nation has entered a moral dark night. As pro-lifers, as Catholics, as lovers of Jesus what is most disturbing are two things that Obama said and did that I believe reveal the darkness of his own moral character. First-- he refused to recognize the humanity of a human being born alive from a botched abortion. He actually refused to support a law that would have provided medical assistance to such persons-- but of course--that's just it! To Obama, even though born and out of the womb-- these tiny infants are still not persons to him and he believes that medical treatment should be withheld from them and they should be allowed to die! That's evil!
Secondly--Obama made the statement--completely unscripted, and completely honest: "If my teenage daughters were ever to become pregnant, I would want them to have abortions rather than be punished with a baby." Yes, he said that! And that's evil!
Yet--such a man who sees a baby as a punishment has been elected president. People actually voted for this guy! Ok yes, this is the bad news and the pro-life movement is in for one heck of a ride! But it's not all bad--that's right--it's not all bad.
This is an opportunity for the Catholic Church to get its act together--to find her prophetic voice and to be a witness against this Culture of Death in a
no-compromise mode.
A few days ago I began to accept that Obama was probably going to win. I had to believe that something good would come of it. And here it is: Obama's election presents us with an opportunity for deep holiness. We are called to give ourselves to Jesus in an even more pure and profound way. We are called to be super disciples--to love Jesus more deeply and work for His kingdom with more energy and sense of mission. That's it!!
This is an opportunity for the Catholic Church to get its act together--to find her prophetic voice and to be a witness against this Culture of Death in a no-compromise mode. That's it. As John Paul II said, "Do not be afraid! Do not be afraid!”
In January (date to be announced) Citizens for a Pro-life Society will hold a special meeting of pro-life leaders to discuss strategy to move the pro-life efforts forward in a moral dark night--and to discuss ways that we can make the Church be that prophetic voice in the moral dark night that God wants her to be. I personally want to thank all of you who have worked so hard to defeat Obama. I know what it has cost you and I know the great sadness that you feel today. But God is with us--never despair. If we despair, Obama really wins!

I personally want to thank all of you who have worked so hard to defeat Obama. I know what it has cost you and I know the great sadness that you feel today. But God is with us--never despair. If we despair, Obama really wins!

We, the citizens of UN member states, in this year of the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted and proclaimed by the UN General Assembly resolution 217 A (III) of 10 December 1948,
Recalling that:
The Universal Declaration is a common standard of achievement for all peoples and all Nations,
Bearing in mind that:
Human rights, dignity, freedom, equality, solidarity and justice constitute the spiritual and moral patrimony on which the union of Nations is based,
Stress that:

2. The right of every child to be educated by his or her parents, who have a prior and fundamental right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.
Therefore, we call upon:
All governments to interpret the Universal Declaration of Human Rights properly such that:
Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person (Article 3)
Men and women of full age, without any limitation due to race, nationality or religion, have the right to marry and to found a family (Article 16).

Getting Shakened Awake by The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
This was sent to us by an Internet Friend of Ours.
Getting Shakened Awake by The Boy in the Striped Pajamas
I'm in the Phoenix airport and the Wi-Fi here is uneven (- which I find disconcertingly cheeky. Don't they know that Obama has been elected and has ushered in a new era of complete transformation of hope and change?!), but I wanted to send a heads-up for the haunting and eerily relevant movie now in theaters, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas.
The film is being distributed by Miramax and was co-produced by BBC Films. It is worthy of your time and I think should be a must see for teenagers and perhaps junior high students depending on their maturity.
I generally have a bias against Holocaust films. They have to work very hard to win my recommendation because so many of them seem to just rehash the same issues over and over again. I also tend to smart against the notion that the Nazis were the worst thing to happen in the 20th Century. It seems to me the crimes of the Gulag and Mao and Fidel and the other leftist dictators have been arguably worse. They certainly lasted longer. But anyway, be assured that you haven't seen THIS Holocaust movie before. While we have seen the German perspective, we haven't seen it from this angle.
Dramatically in "the eyes of a child" genre, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is all about the inevitable personal toll that an individual will have to pay for dabbling with evil. Set in a German family in WWII, it provides a fly on the wall look at a family just like yours - two cute kids who are the center of their parents' world, a mother who is proudly supportive of her husband who has just gotten a promotion, a little bit of tension with the mother-in-law who seems stuck in disapproval of the new ways, and a young husband and father who is just trying to earn a living in the new Germany. The thing is, he just happens to be an SS officer who has been promoted to be commandant of a death camp.
The eight year old son, Bruno, provides the point of view of the film, and he does the confusion and boredom with adult politics and inconsistency very well. The inconsistency here is in the parents who are raising their two children to be delightful, well-rounded good people....all the while trying to keep the uncomfortable truth of the death camp at bay.
The two highlights of the film are the haunting score by the uber-talented James Horner, and the key performance of the mother of the family, played by Vera Farmiga. Farmiga makes her character so wonderfully sympathetic to us and, then, slowly unravels before our eyes. This mother is not the stero-typical robotic and barbaric "Goebbel's Wife" we have seen time and time again in the Holocaust genre. This is a human being who finds herself being swept along in the weird and increasingly dark momentum of her people's history. She isn't sure how it happened. She never signed on for it all, but by the time she takes action to extract herself and her children, it may be too late.
I would love to see Farmiga get an Oscar nod for her work here. So far, her performance is the most notable, and compelling one I have seen this year, with the possible exception of Richard Jenkins' great job in The Visitor.
There is a little bit of controversy about this film. Critics seem to be annoyed that it derives its central tension from the threat to one little German boy, as opposed to the millions of Jews. This criticism seems to me to be idiotic. Every movie derives its power by foregrounding the problems of one or two little people. In this case, the point of the film is to point a finger of condemnation at the German grown-ups here, who thought they could "handle" the evil they were dabbling in. In the end, it becomes a snowball rolling down hill that has the same effect as in the life of the Pharoah Ramsees when he perpetrated evil on the Hebrew people. If you do evil, it will consume you...or at least your children.
The film is not at all graphic, but the end is very disturbing. The people sat in the theater silent during the credits. The ladies behind me were wiping away tears. But I think everybody needs to see it. ESPECIALLY - this week when so many Christians have seen their way to compromising with the greatest social evil of our day - abortion. Our people voted to overlook a little thing like the slaughter of the unborn, because of other considerations like economic prosperity, climate change and the desire to have all the other nations in the world like us again. This kind of a choice gets a very dramatic and cautionary treatment in The Boy in the Striped Pajamas.
I walked out of the theater ashamed of my country, and for the first time in any Holocaust movie, seeing in the German people not a scapegoat of history, but people just like us Americans in 2008. Only we will get judged harsher then they will, eh? Because we had their mistakes to study. My thought as I drove away in my car was, "The only real lesson of history is that people never learn from it."
Strong recommendation for The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Sunday, November 09, 2008The Spirit of the Age
That's poet/musician Michael Card above. I have had one of his songs running through my head all week. It's the one from his meditation on the Incarnation album, "The Final Word." The song is about the slaughter of the innocents by Herod. It's very relevant this week. Go here to download the song. Here are a couple verses:
The Spirit of the Age
I thought that I heard crying,
coming through my door.
Was it Rachel weeping
for her sons who were no more?
Could it have been the babies
crying for themselves,
Never understanding why they died for someone else?
A voice was heard of weeping and of wailing,
History speaks of it on every page.
Of innocent and helpless little babies,
Offerings to the spirit of the age.
Now every age has heard it,
the voice that speaks from hell:
"Sacrifice your children and for you it will be well."
The subtle serpent's lying,
his dark and ruthless rage.
Behold it is revealed to be the spirit of the age!
A voice was heard of weeping and of wailing.
History speaks of it on every page.
Of innocent and helpless little babies.
Offerings to the spirit of the age.
Don't trust the spirit of the age....

You Have Sinned
Obama will lead his sheep to slaughter
For those that help put Obama in office:
Obama has vowed to eliminate all restrictions After he passes the FOCA act, I pray it is not YOUR daughter that gets taken to get an abortion without YOUR consent.
I pray it is not your grandchild that is delivered feet first and then stabbed in the back of the neck!
You are your brothers keeper and those that helped elect Obama , you have failed miserablly to protect your most vulnerable brothers and sisters!
You Have Sinned!!
"The lesser of two evils is still evil."
One of the better political video montages that I have seen. Pro life stance.

Hear the 1st thing Obama is going to do if he comes to be president.
Also, just for good measure, Hitler killed 6 million Jews. Look at home many Americans we have killed.

Bella Star, speaks out against Obama
October 27, 2008
Washington, D.C. - Film star and boy-band idol Eduardo Verastegui released a new Internet video that he was "inspired" to make after learning of Barack Obama's track record on abortion.
In the video, Eduardo explains that more than 1 million babies are aborted in America each year, and that more than 650 Latino babies are aborted each day. Eduardo then reveals Obama's startling history on abortion - opposing bans on partial birth abortion, opposing the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, and opposing parental involvement when a minor girl is abused; he supports financing abortion with tax dollars.
The video, in Spanish and English, is expected to ricochet throughout the Americas.
Eduardo states in the video, "If a president is not willing to defend the most innocent of his own country, the babies in their mother's wombs, then my question is this, who is he willing to defend? That's what inspired me to put this video together."
In a recent interview, Eduardo said, "More than 200,000 Latino babies are killed by abortion each year in the USA. This holocaust must end."
The Latin heartthrob made the video available for free to fans and curious onlookers by placing it on the Internet. The goal is to reach viewers throughout the Americas.
The star and producer of the award-winning hit movie Bella, Eduardo, 34, became famous singing in the popular Latino band "KAIRO" and acting in "Telenovelas" (Latin-American soap operas). He was recently voted by People Magazine en Español as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the world. His movie, BELLA, won the 2006 Toronto Film Festival People's Choice Award.

Wendy Wright, President of Concerned Women for America Legislative Action Committee, a co-sponsor, said, "Eduardo's deep compassion for women and children wouldn't let him stay quiet. He is wisely using his popularity to expose Obama's views."
Spokesmen are available for interviews in English and Spanish.

Can you be pro-life and Christian or Catholic and vote for Obama?
Can you be pro-life and vote for Obama?
According to the Matthew 25 Network, you can be pro-life and support a political candidate who:
Voted against and blocked legislation that would have protected infants who were born alive following an unsuccessful abortion. Then misrepresented his record.
Promises as his number one prior to pass the Freedom of Choice Act, a radical legislative attempt to enshrine abortion-on-demand into American law, to sweep aside existing laws that the majority of Americans support and to prevent states from enacting protective measures in the future (more here).
Vows to nominate Supreme Court justices that support Roe v Wade
Wants to force taxpayers (and insurance companies) to pay for abortions - supports legislation that would repeal the Hyde Amendment which protects pro-life citizens from having to pay for abortions that are not necessary to save the life of the mother and are not the result of rape or incest.
Advocates cutting off all federal aid to pregnancy resource centers, which provide assistance to women who are experiencing crisis pregnancies -- and save the lives of many children.
Has been rated a big zero by every pro-life organization in the country for his voting record
Brags about his 100% rating by national pro-abortion organizations
Has the most liberal views regarding abortion on demand in the history of presidential candidates.
Opposes parental-notification for minors seeking abortion.
Is against "conscience-clauses" for pro-life doctors who refuse to do abortions
Has never voted to restrict or limit abortion in any way.
Despite the fantasy promoted by the Matthew 25 Network, the question asked in this post is rhetorical because ...
Barack Obama is the most extreme pro-abortion candidate ever to seek the office of President of the United States. He is the most extreme pro-abortion member of the United States Senate. Indeed, he is the most extreme pro-abortion legislator ever to serve in either house of the United States Congress. - Robert George
Obama's rejection of the God-given intrinsic dignity of human life is itself a rejection of God and reveals a horribly distorted view of justice that provides a basis for any number evils.
Why is respecting the person so difficult for Barack Obama?
No, to vote for Barack Obama is not pro-life.

If Obama Wins
By plb on October 27, 2008 10:49 AM
If Barack Obama wins the election next week:
Any hope for a U.S. Supreme Court majority opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade will be lost.
The Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) will be signed into law eliminating 35 years of laws that have restricted and regulated the practice of abortion.
He would very likely offer legislation to eliminate the Hyde Amendment which protects taxpaying citizens from being forced to pay for abortions through Medicaid.
Abortion will be covered in his proposed national health care plan.
The Mexico City Policy, which bars taxpayer funding of organizations that perform or promote abortions in foreign countries, would be eliminated.
Funding for the United Nations Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA) would be restored, allowing millions of taxpayer dollars for abortions and forced sterilizations in Third World countries, including China with its coercive "one child" policy.
The Born Alive Infants Protection Act and the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act would be overturned.
Current restrictions on the performance of abortions on military bases would be removed.
What you can do: pray, talk to others and VOTE!

Pro-Life Politicians Have Made a Difference
Pro-Life Politicians Have Made a Difference
By plb on October 27, 2008 12:11 PM
During the past 35 years, the pro-life movement has made some real progress--progress that pro-lifers could at times do a better job of advertising. During the 1990s more states enacted parental-involvement laws, waiting periods, and informed-consent laws. More importantly, the number of abortions has fallen in 12 out of the past 14 years and the total number of abortions has declined by 21 percent since 1990. These gains are largely due to pro-life political victories at the federal level in the 1980s and at the state level in the 1990s, both of which have made it easier to pass pro-life legislation. Furthermore, since the next President may have the opportunity to nominate as many as four justices to the Supreme Court, the right-to-life movement would be very well advised to stay the course in 2008.

Clinic's groundbreaking draws crowd of protesters
Clinic's groundbreaking draws crowd of protesters
Planned Parenthood broke ground Wednesday on a new regional headquarters in northeast Portland, and more than 150 protesters turned out with signs, upset that the agency offers abortion services.
"But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD, and be sure your sin will find you out." Numbers 32:23

PORTLAND, Ore. – Planned Parenthood broke ground Wednesday on a new regional headquarters in northeast Portland, and more than 150 protesters turned out with signs to crash the party.
Protesters say the new 40,000 square foot building, to be constructed near the intersection of Northeast Beech Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, should not be built because it will offer abortion services.
They came from a group of religious organizations around the Portland area.
Organizers of the protest gathered hundreds of signatures to try to get the Portland Development Commission to deny the application to build on the site, which is on a piece of city-owned property.
Protesters said bringing abortion services to the neighborhood is a way of targeting the poor and African Americans. It also promotes a promiscuous lifestyle among young people, they said.
"We do not want Planned Parenthood building a facility where they are going to kill unborn babies in this town because … those babies are all innocent human beings," said protester Christina Degoede. "That's not acceptable for us."
But Planned Parenthood officials say they are building there to help all people who need preventative health care services.
"Abortion is a really small percentage of what we do, less than 5 percent," said Liz Delapoer of Planned Parenthood. "Ninety-five percent of our services focus on preventative health care."
Planned Parenthood officials said they help 60,000 people a year in the northwest.
The new facility would be one of the biggest in the United States.
Planned Parenthood officials have said in the past that the organization supplies the so-called abortion pill to about 17 people per month in its current clinic in northeast Portland.
The new clinic is expected to open in early 2010.
And protesters say they will return to the site frequently.

The new facility would be one of the biggest in the United States.
Planned Parenthood officials have said in the past that the organization supplies the so-called abortion pill to about 17 people per month in its current clinic in northeast Portland.
The new clinic is expected to open in early 2010.
And protesters say they will return to the site frequently.
"But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the LORD, and be sure your sin will find you out." Numbers 32:23

How Can Pro-Life Advocates Still Not Know Barack Obama's Pro-Abortion Views?
How Can Pro-Life Advocates Still Not Know Barack Obama's Pro-Abortion Views?
by Kathryn Jean LopezOctober 12, 2008
LifeNews.com Note: Kathryn Jean Lopez is the editor of National Review Online and a nationally syndicated columnist. A Catholic University of America graduate, Lopez writes often on abortion and bioethics, religion, feminism, education, politics.
Speaking to a group of young Catholics in New York almost one month before Election Day, I had a harsh awakening as jarring as a shot of Wild Turkey 101. Weeks before going to the polling booth, Americans do not know Barack Obama.
In a packed bar, I was discussing the contentious question of whether a Catholic can support Obama for president. I highlighted the priority that defending innocent human lives takes in these considerations, according to the Church. I then went through Obama's radical record on abortion. The jolt came after I finished speaking, when one by one, people told me they had no idea Obama was so radical.
They were shocked. And so was I.
We've been understandably focused on the economy lately, so much so that it's as if there are no other issues. But there are. And in the time we have left, voters must consider them.
Though for Catholics, in the end, it's up to the individual, through prayer, to decide upon political matters, my conclusion is that it would be a very tough thing for a follower of the pope to back the senator -- impossible, actually.
Obama has stood on the floor of the Illinois statehouse and argued that a baby born alive due to a botched abortion should not have the same rights as a child carried to term. That, in and of itself -- his opposition to Illinois' Born Alive Infants Protection Act, which sought to mandate safeguards for such unwanted children -- is a heavy obstacle to overcome for those Obama fans concerned about the future and dignity of human life.
He defended infanticide. That alone would be enough to keep me from voting for him. But, as it happens, it's not the only ethical affront the Obama campaign has committed, and far from the only offense to human rights that the Democratic presidential candidate supports.
Care for some others?
Barack Obama has told the Planned Parenthood Action Fund that the first thing he will sign as president will be the Freedom of Choice Act, which will sweep away limits on abortion -- state and federal -- including restrictions on government funding of abortion and laws protecting anti-abortion health care providers.
Barack Obama has condemned the Supreme Court's Gonzales v. Carhart ruling, which affirmed the federal partial-birth abortion ban.
Barack Obama supports federal funding of abortion.
Barack Obama opposes the Hyde Amendment, which restricts use of taxpayer dollars for supporting abortion.
Barack Obama called pregnancy "punishment."
Barack Obama believes that the right to have an abortion is a matter of equal rights for women.
Barack Obama wants to stop federal funding to crisis-pregnancy centers.
Barack Obama does not support the Pregnant Women Support Act, a project of Democrats for Life, meant to reduce abortions by strengthening the social safety net. This is important because it exposes as a lie a major talking point employed by those who argue that pro-lifers can support Obama.
It shows much of the left's patronizing rhetoric to be nothing but rank deceit. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- a Catholic who developed her own theology to justify her abortion support -- and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid have not allowed this important act to even come to a vote.
I don't think I'm unreasonable in thinking that sweeping away all abortion limits and funding abortion with federal tax dollars (while de-funding centers that provide alternatives to abortion) will increase rather than decrease abortions in the United States.
"The election of Barack Obama would endanger the lives of thousands of unborn children," University of Alabama professor Michael New tells me. "If he follows through on his pledge to sign the Freedom of Choice Act, it would likely nullify many state-level pro-life laws that the pro-life movement has worked hard to enact."
Calculations from the results of a 2004 Heritage Foundation study, authored by New, indicate that the repeal of all state-level public funding restrictions, parental-involvement laws and informed-consent laws would result in 125,000 more abortions every year. The repeal of federal pro-life laws might well push the numbers up even higher.
You can fall in love with the romantic idea of a black man becoming president of the United States, but in a country where black women have abortions at five times the rate of white women, he is a profile in cowardice. In a land where we have devoted ourselves to the pursuit of life, this is unacceptable. Vote as if lives depend on you.
They do.

Keep the Pro-life Candidates in your Prayers
Pastor Mark Arnold sent the following Email to Pastor Clagg recently. Pastor Clagg answered him below. Please read it all
This past Tuesday, the McCain-Palin Bus came through a little town called, Lebanon , Ohio. The Lord allowed me to go to the rally giving them a message that He wanted me to personally deliver.Sunday Night, a burden hit me that would only shake me to my knees. I prayed and wept for our Nation. Never has my heart been so broken before God. I literally interceded for these wonderful people who do not deserve all the hate against them. The God-haters are going to try everything to stop them, but they will not succeed! God is not pleased with the bashing in the news of this anointed person. He has called her for this time! I promised God that I would pray and hold them up in prayer. I would listen out and be mindful of where they were. The following day is important in this timeline because I didn't even know until God spoke to me. Monday and into Monday night, the burden of prayer was so heavy that I was literally shaking and could not stop weeping. I didn't know that they were coming to Ohio. I prayed and walked and wept and walked. I prayed and prayed and wept and prayed. Tuesday at 2:00 A.M., God spoke these words to me, "Go turn the Radio on!" Immediately the reporter's words were, "McCain & Palin Bus to be in Lebanon later this morning for a 10:00 A.M. Rally!"Immediately on hearing that news, I heard God again. God said, "You are to go. You will meet them and give them a message for me!"I prayed as an intercessor and went to a place in prayer that I don't think I've ever been because the Lord had just visited me; and I knew I was on a mission. I had now been up since Sunday nIght...and now it's Tuesday. And I've got to go on the word of the Lord. He sure became my strength as this unfolds. I didn't stop praying until I drove over to the town and parked the car. The news would later report they were expecting 5,000 people and the actual head count of those who had been scanned was more than 10,000 people. I simply obeyed, and God actually told me where to stand, whom to talk to, and when to be on the move. I had sure learned on the mission field, when God wants to open a door, He will do it at the appropriate time. He always has someone to assist, and even those standing beside you may just be an Angel. I struck up a conversation with an agent on the ground. He simply said, "I can't allow you to stand here." Here is where the bus was going to actual pull up to. They had to make a much larger perimeter so the entire area was now being moved back several blocks. The only other thing he told me to do was to go through the metal detector zone and just watch from the back. So, that's what I did.Due to sensitivity of the Internet, I can't share much of the story as to what happened next was a definite GOD THING ALL THE WAY. Looking over the shoulders and backs and heads of all those people, I knew it would take a miracle for what God told me to do.As I was standing there, two Boy Scouts came running up my back---literally; they almost knocked me to the ground because they were running so fast behind me---up my back and over to the right. These Boy Scouts were about junior-high age. Their scout leader and several others were behind them, but as the two out front was trying to push through the crowd, saying they were late, the smaller scouts were left in their dust. The scout leader who was with a McCain rep. from the state grabbed me and told me bring the other scouts up front as they try to keep up with the first two that just came through.I just became the leader of the rest of the scouts to lead them right up front and center. As the rep. was shouting back at me to bring the scouts forward, the people parted just like God parted the Red Sea. I marched those boys right up front and to the right of the stage as one was looking from the back. When I got there I was fifteen feet from the podium. God said, "Stand here, and don't move from this spot."Within five minutes...the bus pulled up and around the other side McCain, Sarah Palin and her husband Todd stepped up and the speeches took off. I was where God placed me, and even Sarah Palin and Todd were standing on my side of the stage. I made eye contact, I gave them thumbs up gestures, and I knew they were just happy to see me standing there. (Ha-ha!)When they came around the podium and started on the other side, I knew they were coming right toward me, a little lady who stood by me, reached up and told the rep. that they had been promised a picture with her because she was the one who had lost a son in Iraq, recently. The rep. confirmed she would get a picture with them and they would talk to her. When McCain came to hug her, he immdiately shook my hand and following his moment with her, I shook his hand as he grabbed my hand now for the second time, and I said, "God wants you to know that I'm praying for you, Sir!" He thanked me and kept smiling. I repeated that phrase to him five times. He grabbed my hands and looked right into my eyes and said, "I won't make it without prayer. Sir, thank you for praying for me, and don't let one day go by that you don't pray for me. I need all the prayers that I can get. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!"As he moved to my right, Sarah Palin, came over to my left side standing over the crowd, and then looking at the little lady who had lost the son. It took a moment for her to shake some hands and people were pushing in all around. Sarah came and got on her hands and knees on that side of the stage and hugged that little Mom, telling her, "It was not in vain." She promised her support. It was at this moment Sarah Palin reached out for me to help her up and as I was assisting her to stand I was now face to face with her and GOD said, "Open up your Mouth and I will fill it."Here is what came out:"God wants you to know that you are a present day Esther!" [She immediately began to cry]!"God wants to tell you that you are chosen for such a time as this! You are called, and chosen to be a leader. "Don't lose heart and don't fear man. The news, nay-sayers, and criticizers are going to be very hateful toward you, and in the days ahead they are going to turn up the heat, but do not fear. You are a present day Esther. You are an Esther. You are an Esther! Keep your eyes on GOD and know that He has chosen you to Reign! Stay strong; be strong; don't tire. Don't be weary in well-doing. Be strong."Her husband Todd came over and I told him what I told her. He began to cry.I emphasized the fact that he was to guard her at this time. And know that, "She is GOD-CALLED and GOD-ANOINTED. This is a GOD-THING, and your wife is a Present-day Esther. She is for God to use at this time. She is an Esther. She is an Esther. She is an Esther. You will be hated, but stand strong. GOD has called both of you to stand! We are praying and I am praying for you!"At this moment, McCain came right to where I was while finishing talking to Todd and I told Mr. McCain exactly what I told to Sarah and Todd Palin."Mr. McCain, they are called of God and she is an Esther. Don't lose hope and don't lose heart. We are praying for all of you!"He shook my hand and with a deep look of understanding what I had just said, he said, "Thank you for your prayers and support. I really do mean that!" And he turned and shook more hands, and I watched them as they went through the crowd. When I got to my car I sat there for quite a long time knowing the God of the Universe had just used me to deliver a message confirming to Sarah and Todd to realize they are truly chosen vessels of God. I wept. I have not stopped praying and crying. My heart is full knowing they had to have all the staging and all the hype and all the crowd, but the God of Heaven an d Earth wanted to give them a divine God-appointment! To God be all the GLORY and HONOR.If anyone wants to know if I believe God can speak, "Yes. Absolutely!", is my answer! Be praying for me, and let me know what you think about all of this.Pastor Mark Arnold

Help Priests for Life, URGENT
Help Priests for Life, Urgent
Please click here and follow the instructions to be part of a critically important pro-life initiative.Your help is urgently needed because of what happened on “Meet the Press” this past August 24.In case you missed it, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi went on “Meet the Press” and made false and outrageous claims about Church teaching. In answer to Tom Brokaw’s question about when life begins, Speaker Pelosi said:I would say that as an ardent, practicing Catholic, this is an issue I have studied for a long time. And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the church have not been able to make that definition. And St. Augustine said at three months. We don’t know. ... I don’t think anybody can tell you when life begins, human life begins.Not only is Speaker Pelosi completely wrong on what the Church teaches about when life begins, but she’s denying the obvious. Human life begins at conception. That’s a scientific fact:· “Human development begins at fertilization.”- The Developing Human, Clinically Oriented Embryology, 6th Edition,Moore, Persaud, Saunders, 1998, page 18.And every other book on embryology will agree. It isn’t above Speaker Pelosi’s pay grade – or anyone else’s for that matter – to know this.However, in a feeble attempt to justify her unbridled support for abortion – and confuse Catholics and others – she’s trying to “intellectualize” the issue.She’s trying to escape the fact that it’s really very easy to see that abortion is an act of violence that ends a life. To find out that truth, you don’t have to go to the Church or to St. Augustine. You just go to the abortionists and their advocates!· “Typically the skull is brought out in fragments rather than as a unified piece…"(Sworn testimony given in US District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin (Madison, WI, May 27, 1999, Case No. 98-C-0305-S), by Dr. Martin Haskell, anabortionist.

Labels: Help Priests for Life, Urgent
Please click here and follow the instructions to be part of a critically important pro-life initiative.Your help is urgently needed because of what happened on “Meet the Press” this past August 24.In case you missed it, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi went on “Meet the Press” and made false and outrageous claims about Church teaching. In answer to Tom Brokaw’s question about when life begins, Speaker Pelosi said:I would say that as an ardent, practicing Catholic, this is an issue I have studied for a long time. And what I know is, over the centuries, the doctors of the church have not been able to make that definition. And St. Augustine said at three months. We don’t know. ... I don’t think anybody can tell you when life begins, human life begins.Not only is Speaker Pelosi completely wrong on what the Church teaches about when life begins, but she’s denying the obvious. Human life begins at conception. That’s a scientific fact:· “Human development begins at fertilization.”- The Developing Human, Clinically Oriented Embryology, 6th Edition,Moore, Persaud, Saunders, 1998, page 18.And every other book on embryology will agree. It isn’t above Speaker Pelosi’s pay grade – or anyone else’s for that matter – to know this.However, in a feeble attempt to justify her unbridled support for abortion – and confuse Catholics and others – she’s trying to “intellectualize” the issue.She’s trying to escape the fact that it’s really very easy to see that abortion is an act of violence that ends a life. To find out that truth, you don’t have to go to the Church or to St. Augustine. You just go to the abortionists and their advocates!· “Typically the skull is brought out in fragments rather than as a unified piece…"(Sworn testimony given in US District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin (Madison, WI, May 27, 1999, Case No. 98-C-0305-S), by Dr. Martin Haskell, anabortionist. He describes legal activity.)· "...The abortion-rights folks know it, the anti-abortion folks know it, and so probably, does everyone else. One of the facts of abortion is that … it is a form of killing ... you're ending a life." Ron Fitzsimmons, Executive Director, NationalCoalition of Abortion Providers, New York Times, 26 February 1997The bottom line for Nancy Pelosi is simply this:She doesn’t want to protect those lives.And instead of having the decency to admit what abortionists do to defenseless babies – namely, rip off their arms and legs ... crush their skulls ... burn their bodies ... stab razor-sharp scissors into their heads – she goes back 16 centuries and argues about Church teaching.

Let's make our Pro-life Song "One in A Billion Choices " Number one again,
We are so excited, because, it means, people who listen on the interenet are hearing the Song, and if it saves one Baby's life, it was worth creating the song. Hopefully, though, it will save many, Billions of Unborn children. The internet plays around the world, so hopefully, it is touching many hearts, and changing many minds.
Life is so precious, and we seem to have lost that idea here in our country, and the Lord spoke to our heart sharing that each person is created for a special mission, and each name is given to us by God, he knew us before we were born Jermiah 1:5

The greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion, which is war against the child. The mother doesn't learn to love, but kills to solve her own problems. Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want - Mother Teresa
One in a Billion Choices© 2004
Author: Lawrence & Diane Marie Leach
You were one in a Billion Choices and God chosen you,
so stop look and listen to the beauty of your name
As she struggles with the questions of life, a baby is on the way
she is nobody's wife praying she hears the Lord Say
You know the father of Lies, and the creator of fears
comes to kill and destroy life my child, dry your tears
Wayne is a Builder,
Robert bright Fame
William means protector of life
search for the meaning of your name
Ernie is determination
Peter is a Rock Men are called to lead nations
and Shepherd his flock
You were One in a Billion Choices
and God has chosen you
so stop, look and listen to the beauty of your name
Patricia means noble one
Helen is a light
Diane divine one You will see what is right
Carolyn means a song of Joy
Virginia is pure
God loves each girl and boy
Each Birth must be asssured
You were one in a billion choices
and God Chosen You
So stop, look and listen
to the beauty of your name
Jesus means salvation,
he's the restorer of life
his mission was in his name
look and see yours may be the same
look and see yours may be the same
You were one in a billion choices
and God chosen you
so stop, look and listen to the beauty of your name

Forty Days for Life Coming to 170 Cities
Forty Days for Life Coming to 170 CitiesThe second national 40 Days for Life campaign for 2008 will take place September 24 - November 2 and will be conducted in cities from coast to coast.

"The spread of 40 Days for Life is amazing," said national campaign director David Bereit. "The growth of this outreach is a reflection of the excitement that people are expressing about the many ways 40 Days for Life impacts a community. This program is being embraced by cities conducting their first 40 Days for Life and those who are planning their second, third, or - in the case of Bryan/College Station, Texas - fourth campaign." With campaigns in both Washington, D.C. and Ottawa, Ontario, this means that 40 Days for Life will have a presence
