CHRISTIANS FOR PERSONHOOD 06/30/2013

10th Circuit Court: Corporations can be "persons" [ So what about unborn human beings !!!??? ]

The dictionary defines a "person" first as, "a human being".  Medical science

If corporations can be recognized by the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals as
"persons" with religious beliefs, then why can't human beings be recognized
as "persons" from the moment of fertilization with the God-given, unalienable
right to life !!!??? 

Pass Personhood now !!! [ e.g., US House Bill - HR 23 ]

but hinted strongly at that outcome.

With some sixty lawsuits unfolding nationwide that challenge the mandate ­ some by profit-making firms, others by non-profit colleges,
schools, and other institutions ­ the issue is almost certain to reach the Supreme Court at its next Term.
