On August 29, my friend Will Goodman and four other defendants were convicted (and immediately jailed) in federal court in Washington, D.C., of violating the FACE Act. Their alleged offenses occurred on October 22, 2020, when the group disrupted a late-term-abortion mill run by the notorious DC “doctor” Cesare Santangelo. (Others also entered the clinic that day—their trial is set to begin September 6.) Will and his co-defendants, as well as the others, could be sentenced to up to eleven years in a federal penitentiary for “conspiracy against rights.”
Why Are Pro-Lifers Repeating Pro-Abortion Falsehoods?

Twice in the last few days, I read articles on pro-life websites that blandly repeated pro-abortion falsehoods about efforts to legalize late-term abortion.

By Alexandra DeSanctis:
In January 2023, an article by New York Post columnist Rikki Schlott surveyed a striking trend: a growing wave of young women opting out of hormonal birth control. ... She argues that an increasing number of her peers are declining oral contraception because they have “an intuitive sense that hormonal birth control might be messing with us, and our brains.”

South Carolina Upholds Abortion Ban While Pro-Abortion Advocates Play Language Games
By Madeline Fry Schultz:
We have some good news for South Carolinians: The state’s Supreme Court upheld its abortion ban last week, which means unborn babies cannot be aborted after a heartbeat has been detected, around six weeks. This week, the [state's] Supreme Court further cemented its decision, saying it refuses to reconsider the case. For pro-life jurisprudence, and for South Carolina babies in the womb, this is a positive development. Unfortunately, you wouldn’t know that from the headlines.
By Rev. Paul T. Stallsworth:
There are many people, clergy and laity, who have a strong witness for life. Most never speak their witness before an audience or in front of a camera. Even so, their life-affirming words and deeds are heard and seen every day. Here is the story of one such witness. ... Rev. Gladys Williford, writing from her quiet apartment, takes us forward to basics in our thinking about life and abortion.“Thou shall not murder.”
By Rev. George G. Brooks:
With St. Paul the apostle, we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men. (I Corinthians)
A Letter from Home
By Peter Pavia:
Despite being brought up by generous, loving people, I never felt at home in the suburban tract house where I misspent my youth. My dad was a slick-talking charmer who hadn’t energy for much beyond drinking, gambling, and chasing women, though he was, in his way, generous and loving, too. He was around on occasion, and I suppose he could’ve offered me more direction (and I received more than either my brother or sister did), but his passions didn’t leave a lot of time for children. It hardly matters now; I’ve long since put thoughts of things that might have been to rest.
