The Eleven-Year-Old Sexologists It is becoming immensely apparent that society is consumed with making our children grow up too fast. No longer can children just play or have fun in a worry-free environment. Instead, sexuality is forced upon them from every venue-in the media, in books, in video games and even in schools.

Ok, this is it! The last day of a fun week of wearing our pro-life shirts out in public. It is also the last day of the NPLTW photo contest! Two tasks that were missing have been activated: 278 - At the welcome sign to your state. and 343 - Find a Noah's Ark playset. Sorry for not noticing earlier that these were not visible. Thank you to Lauren (4th place winner from last year) for pointing this out! The daily task for the last day of the contest is a nice, relaxing, comforting task... We want you to take a photo with you wearing your pro-life shirt (of course, and sticker if needed) sitting at your kitchen/dining room table eat a slice of apple pie that has a scoop of ice cream on it. Now! Because I was late in posting yesterdays (Sunday) daily task, you can complete both today's and yesterday's daily task through Monday, April 18th, midnight PST. There is also an important note about the photos and how they are judged on our Facebook page.

This is true for Evangelicals and Mainline Protestants, and it is true for Catholics, despite the Catholic hierarchy's strenuous opposition to contraception." | | Planned Parenthood message war goes on Politico The battle over Planned Parenthood's funding may be over in Congress, but a fierce messaging fight has just started over whether the Planned Parenthood debate is an abortion debate at all. Supporters of Planned Parenthood on both sides of the aisle say the vote was, and will continue to be, an issue of protecting the preventive services Planned Parenthood provides. On the more politically volatile issue of abortion, however, they have stayed mum. | | Pro-life groups challenge Planned Parenthood claim CBN News
