36 Years After Roe v. Wade: Is It Time to Move On?

Russell Moore discusses the stance of the pro-life movement in the face of very likely major setbacks courtesy of the Obama administration: 36 Years After Roe v. Wade: Is It Time to Move On?

Did you know that FOCA (Freedom of Choice Act), the legislation Obama has promised to sign into law, would remove the right of physicians and hospitals to refuse to perform abortions (freedom of conscience). "Freedom" of "choice", apparently, would not apply to healthcare professionals and the health care industry.

The Future of the Prolife Movement

This is an excellent discussion of the future of the prolife movement now that Barack Obama is about to be President. From NPR's Talk of the Nation, Thursday, January 15, 2009:

The guests are Randall Terry, founder of Operation Rescue, Jay Sekulow, from the American Center for Law and Justice, and a catholic priest. I especially appreciated Terry's frank and honest discussion of the issue (for instance, matter-of-factly referring to abortion as "child killing." I thought that Sekulow also argued fairly well, and the priest made a couple good points, too.

According to Wikipedia, Randall Terry is a womanizer and worse. I know nothing about this, I do not know whether or not any of it is true, and I certainly would not endorse that kind of behavior. His comments on this program on the issue of abortion were excellent.

(PS. I have no idea if anyone reads my blog. If you do, please let me know. I am considering posting more often, but don't want to waste too much of my time for a completely imaginary audience.)

Making Lemonade

What a great way to make the best of a bad situation! Read how a radio station network found a way to spread Obama's wealth around--for life! Read about it here.

The Ecumenism of the Abortion Clinic

Russell Moore writes, "We are accustomed to seeing Evangelicals and Roman Catholics praying together outside abortion clinics and working together for pro-life legislation. But we don't think about a less pleasant ecumenism: Catholics and Evangelicals waiting together in the lobby of an abortion facility."

"Conversational Aplogetics" by Michael Ramsden

This is an excellent message by Michael Ramsden, European Director of RZIM Zacharias Trust. Ramsden helps us understand how to answer and ask questions. This is a great resource for anyone who actually wants to talk to people about what they believe. For instance, you will learn good ways to respond to the question, "Is abortion wrong?" and "What about evolution?"
