When we dehumanize the pre-born…

This is the kind of thing that happens... (Telegraph) -- The bodies of thousands of aborted and miscarried babies were incinerated as clinical waste, with some even used to heat hospitals, an investigation has found. Ten NHS trusts have admitted burning foetal remains alongside other rubbish … [Read more...]

Coat hanger pendant is a sick token of appreciation

Abortion fundraiser, DC Abortion Fund, whose purpose is to make funds available to mothers who can't afford abortions on their own.  They are now offering a morbid token of thanks for donating $10 per month or more to the group: a coat hanger pendant for a necklace. I am curious about something … [Read more...]

Eavesdropping in on social media conversations

We all come across conversations while scanning our social media.  Much of which can make us shake our heads in somewhat disbelief.  The above is from a semi-ongoing discussion on Facebook.  At first blush, I see a few things going on and have some questions. Was the Occupy movement started for … [Read more...]

Why do so many black mothers turn to abortion?

The above number is bad enough. But in New York City, 80% of abortions are had by minority mothers. In general black mothers abort at rates much higher than their populative representation. Many defenders of abortion will punt to poverty=abortion. But this would also be the case in areas of the … [Read more...]

Do you censor yourself on social media?

The advent of social media outlets have made a small world even smaller.  Friends of yesteryear and family rarely seen or heard from have been brought back together via Facebook, Twitter and other internet social mediums.  In addition to reconnecting with family and friends, people voice their views … [Read more...]

Are graphic images of abortion appropriate?

One complaint pro-abortion choice activists have about the pro-life movement is their propensity to display images of aborted fetal human being.  In Athens Georgia, at the University of Georgia, pro-abortion choice activists erected a make-shift barrier to block such images. (The College Fix) … [Read more...]

UPDATE: New Year’s Resolutions! February

This is the monthly update to my New Year's resolution post which can be found HERE.  My wife and I are what you might call practical extreme couponers.  We don’t get 100 toothpaste coupons and clear out a store.  But we do coupon everything.  We save at least 50% on our groceries, and even more … [Read more...]

On the lighter side: I miss my dog

January a year ago I lost my first dog.  You can read about him here.  Recently I've been missing him and wouldn't you know it I come across Rudyard Kipling's poem, The Power of the Dog.  It's really difficult for me to read.  I've tried to get through it with my eyes dry to no avail. There is … [Read more...]

Income inequality worst in Democrat led cities

The Brookings Institute released a study on income inequality finding that it is worst in large cities, which also are and have been ruled by Democrat policies for decades.  The subject of income inequality is a propaganda political issue to begin with.  It is rooted in jealousy and envy.  It pits … [Read more...]

If there’s so much real hate out there, why make it up?

The most recent in a long line of hate crime/anti-gay hoaxes was uncovered recently.  Granted it was done by a couple DJs attempting to "create a discussion".  But there is a trend afoot where certain members of particular minority groups are staging incidents of anti-gay hate perpetrated by, of … [Read more...]

Washington halts the death penalty, but should it?

Governor Jay Inslee of Washington state has enacted a moratorium on capital punishment.  Anti-capital punishment activists are relishing the success and death row inmates are resting a little easier knowing they'll never meet the fate they imperiled upon their victims.  What purpose does a political … [Read more...]

We don’t need to know about your sex life

Missouri defensive end Michael Sam made headlines by announcing he is gay.  He is not alone.  There seems to be a trend for athletes to publicly proclaim their homosexuality.  Figure skater Brian Boitano and basketball player Jason Collins preceded Sam in "coming out".  Of course, these … [Read more...]

Planned Parenthood settles for killing woman during abortion

Abortion rights advocates don't think twice about using women who they believe die because of restrictive abortion laws as props for their campaign to make abortion as accessible as bubblegum.  What's kept hush hush, however, is the women who die because of an abortion procedure.  Women like Tonya … [Read more...]

Liberals & Africa…

Liberals are bizarre creatures. While claiming to represent the oppressed, they fervently support abortion; while claiming to be inclusive and tolerant, they're notoriously intolerant of views different from their own [1] ; and while claiming to be sophisticated intellectuals with a monopoly on … [Read more...]

Human life is on a pathway toward meaninglessness

As a generality I think we as a culture, are becoming far too selfishly frivolous when it comes to matters of life and death.  Or put another way: those who are most in need of protection are having that protection rationalized away from them.  Those in the womb, those whose "plug" gets pulled, and … [Read more...]

When life begins is irrelevant to the abortion debate

The morality of abortion hinges on different criteria depending on who it is you are having the discussion with. One of the most persistent defenses for abortion is the question of when life begins. This is a question only asked by those philosophizing about abortion, not among those in the … [Read more...]

Superbowl Sunday…

Let me say that my Hawks' crushing victory over the Broncos is nothing short of legendary. Hell, I even lost my voice halfway through the opening snap! Safety! Safety! Safety! Yes, it was beautiful. I screamed and cheered for all the right reasons! And though my 10-month-old daughter may well … [Read more...]

Abortion rate is the lowest since Roe v Wade

The rate of abortion, about 17 of every 1000 women in the US, is down 43.4% from its peak in 1980, and nearly as low as the rate following the Supreme Court decision legalizing the commission of abortion.  This is good and bad news.  There's still more than 1 million abortions committed per … [Read more...]

UPDATE: New Year’s Resolutions!

At the beginning of this year I had resolved to do two things.  First is to pick up every bit of money I find on the ground. Ordinarily, I never pass over ‘silver’ change.  I always stop for nickels, dimes, and quarters but not always pennies.  I decided I would not pass over a single coin.  The … [Read more...]

The morality of Atheism

The debate over morality between Atheists and Theists is forever ongoing. I think Atheists mistakenly believe Theists claim they can't act in a moral manner, but this isn't the issue.  Most Atheists, in my experience, are relatively honest, caring people with genuine concern for their fellow man. … [Read more...]
