DEACON FOR LIFE

Were there to be no support in the whole history of ethical and moral thought, were there no acknowledged confirmation from medical science, were the history of legal opinion to the contrary, we would still have to conclude on the basis of God's Holy Word that the unborn child is a person in the sight of God. He is protected by the sanctity of life graciously given to each individual by the Creator, Who alone places His image upon man and grants them any right to life which they have.

Where Are the Pro-Choicers to Defend the Teen Who Says She Suffered a Forced Abortion?

Where Are the Pro-Choicers to Defend the African American Teen Who Says She Suffered a Forced Abortion, Asks Dr. Alveda King
ATLANTA, Nov. 25 /Christian Newswire/ -- Dr. Alveda King, Pastoral Associate of Priests for Life, reacted today to the case of an African American teenager who is suing a Michigan doctor for an alleged forced abortion.

"I can't help but notice that no so called 'pro-choice' leaders are rushing to the aid of a black Michigan teenager who says she was held down on an operating table while an abortionist took her baby without consent," said Dr. King. "The silence of the pro-abortion 'champions' is deafening, but the silence of the lambs slaughtered in the clinics is heart wrenching. Once again, it's clear that the abortion lobby supports only one choice."
