Ireland: Record Numbers of Pro-Lifers Attend National Vigil Against
Abortion
A
record number of people attended the National Vigil for Life in Dublin Ireland
to show there is a large contingent that is opposed to the government’s
abortion plan. The Vigil in Merrion Square was the largest ever pro-life demonstration
in the country and one of the biggest gatherings so far this year, event organizers
said, with well over 40,000 people in attendance.
The Government must stop misrepresenting its proposed abortion legislation as restrictive and face up to the dangers in its abortion plan, Pro Life Campaign spokesperson Caroline Simons told the National Vigil for Life this afternoon. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

One Baby Lived, The Other Baby Died: Finding and Sharing Hope After
Tragedy
When
Marlena Diedrich and her husband Joseff learned they were expecting twin
girls, they were ecstatic. Like most parents, they hoped and prayed for
a healthy pregnancy, and for the majority of the pregnancy, all was well.
When
Marlena Diedrich and her husband Joseff learned they were expecting twin
girls, they were ecstatic. Like most parents, they hoped and prayed for
a healthy pregnancy, and for the majority of the pregnancy, all was well.
However, at 30 weeks,
Marlena went into labor. Doctors were able to stop it, but they discovered
that one of the girls – already named Grace – was under distress
and wasn’t taking in any amniotic fluid. Grace was given a very poor
prognosis, and Marlena was transported to a different hospital with a new
team of doctors and a more advanced neonatal intensive care unit. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
A common tale is the man who gets a girl pregnant, and then pressures her into
having an abortion. For men just looking to screw around and avoid commitment
at any cost, abortion is the perfect solution. Abortion allows them to use a
woman and then leave her, have sex and still avoid any kind of consequences
or responsibility for their actions.But what about the other side of the coin? The man who grieves at the abortion of his child, who wants to step up and take responsibility and make a commitment, is not often mentioned in the abortion discussion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
Parents of Sick Kids Forced to Reject Abortion and Euthanasia Suggestions
In
2011, a survey study in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology reported
that only 14% of practicing obstetrician/gynecologists are willing to perform
abortions.1 In Oregon, the first state to legalize assisted suicide in 1994,
just a small number of physicians have been writing the majority of lethal
overdose prescriptions.2
Still, many mainstream media outlets report overwhelming support for both abortion and the so-called “right to die” as politically correct and humane, while opponents are cast as unfeeling religious bigots. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/

Pastors Must Preach Against Abortion More Often, We Must Encourage
Them
Many
people find themselves in churches in which ministers rarely, if ever, preach
against abortion from the pulpit. The abortion issue is also a subject we
rarely address in social circles or with family, even though we know it
touches the lives of so many. Perhaps because abortion is so prevalent we
end up avoiding the topic in order not to offend. Abortion, however, is
a subject that must be addressed openly, particularly among Christians,
and it can be done both in truth and grace.
Recently, theologian R.C. Sproul
Jr. published a blog post in which he explored reasons why pastors do not
preach on abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/Many

This family-friendly Christian fiction will delight and entertain while delivering a Christian message. Book 2 will address the issue of abortion. |

Swiss
Suicide Clinic Kills Alzheimer’s Patient, Euthanasia Activists Applaud
The logic of assisted suicide pushes with the force of gravity to virtual death-on-demand. It starts with advocacy for allowing doctor-prescribed suicide for the imminently terminally ill for whom–supposedly–nothing else can be done to alleviate suffering. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/
