COMMENTARY    Semantics    Choosing words carefully can be a form of art. It is often very difficult to articulate or effectively express something of importance. Words can inspire and words can incite. But words can also be deceptive and create an illusion-an illusion that only the speaker wants us to see. Today's guest commentary explores the world of semantics and explains how those advocating abortion routinely twist words so that others will not see the horrors that they perpetrate.                                                          [ Read today's commentary here. ]                                                                                                                                                             HEADLINES Baby pronounced dead at birth comes back to life God Vine Doctors pronounced this baby dead, but after 2 hours of the mother holding him in her arms, he unbelievably started breathing again. This shows that God still does perform miracles today.                                     Post-abortion trauma National Review         Those who support abortion rights assure us that post-abortion complications are a myth. But Steven Tyler cuts through this fog of denial and lays it on the line: Jesus, what have I done? This is the cry of a post-abortive father whose very intimate exposure to the reality of abortion fits the textbook definition of trauma - as set down by the very same American Psychiatric Association that assures us abortion is a safe procedure with no negative effects on a man's or a woman's mental health.                   Rate of U.S. women taking abortifacient morning-after pill doubles Life Site News               The rate of U.S. women between the ages of 15 and 44 who have ever used the abortifacient morning-after pill has doubled since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized the Plan-B drug for over-the-counter sales, according to a new study. The study, published in the journal Fertility and Sterility, found that 10 percent of the sexually active respondents in the survey of 7,300 women between the ages of 15-44 reported ever using EC. By comparison, just four percent of women surveyed in 2002 reported using EC.
