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

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.
