Abortion Practitioner Failed to Report Statutory Rape of 13-Year-Old Girl
An Indiana abortion practitioner is coming under fire today for failing to file a timely report on the abortion he did on a 13-year-old girl who was victimized by statutory rape.
Allen County Right to Life, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, filed complaints today with the Indiana Attorney General’s office and the Indiana Medical Licensing Board over the Fort Wayne abortion doctor failing to properly report an abortion on a 13-year-old as required by state law. The age of the patient surfaced as ACRTL director Cathie Humbarger reviewed publicly-available terminated pregnancy reports from the state health department. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/abortion-practitioner-failed-to-report-statutory-rape-of-13-year-old-girl/

Woman Survives Three Attempted Abortions, Now Celebrates Life Via Photography
Bethany Sanderson has survived 3 attempts on her life. Not in a dark alley at the hands of a robber, but in the womb of her mother – an unwed 15 year old in a remote Indian village.

Catholic Bishops: We Will Not Give Up on Stopping the Obamacare HHS Mandate
The nation’s Catholic bishops have issued a new document promising not to give up on overturning the controversial birth control-abortion mandate in Obamacare.
Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan, in a new letter to bishops nationwide, said the bishops continue to study the legal and moral implications of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) mandate in the Affordable Care Act, and to “develop avenues of response that would both preserve our strong unity and protect our consciences.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/catholic-bishops-we-will-not-give-up-on-stopping-the-obamacare-hhs-mandate/


Parents in India Kill 11 Girl Babies in Infanticides Hoping for a Boy
When Attorney Jill McElya and her husband Dr. Brad McElya were living in India in 2009, they founded Invisible Girl Project, an organization “[that] raises global awareness concerning the loss of female lives in India, pursues justice for lives lost, and assists Indian organizations in the rescue of and care for vulnerable Indian girls.”
In the recent hearing on India’s Missing Girls before a House Subcommittee on Africa, Global Health, Global Human Rights, and International Organizations, Jill was called on to provide testimony and was able to provide real life examples of what life is really like for part of the female population in India. Her stories make the listener wonder if such atrocities could really be happening in the world in which we currently live. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/parents-in-india-kill-11-girl-babies-in-infanticides-hoping-for-a-boy/
Dying Soldier Holds His Newborn Daughter Just Seven Days Before Passing Away
The pro-abortion group NARAL is sponsoring a Tweetfest with the hasthag #MenforChoice on Twitter today to celebrate men who favor abortion. The day is ironic when you consider stories like this one — a dying soldier who did everything possible to hold his newborn daughter before he died.
Gary Coleman, from England, was “thrilled” to become a father but he was diagnosed with cancer in February 2011, which spread to his brain. Wanting to have a chance to hold his newborn baby girl before he succumbed to the deadly disease, Coleman’s wife Joanne asked to be induced so her husband could have a few moments with her beforehand. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/dying-soldier-holds-his-newborn-daughter-just-seven-days-before-passing-away/
Taxpayer Funds Pay for Creepy Planned Parenthood “Condom Man” Video
Planned Parenthood’s unbelievably creepy looking Condom Man demonstrates how to use a female condom, thrusting his curled hand in an in-and-out motion to demonstrate how the condom gets “thoroughly used.” He is brought to the young people of the Memphis area courtesy of Planned Parenthood Greater Memphis Region (PPGMR) via your hard-earned tax dollars.
“Today’s topic: Insertions! Aka, the female condom,” he says in the video. Picking up a model of a vagina, he pinches, then inserts the female condom, exclaiming, “Oh, yeah.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/taxpayer-funds-pay-for-creepy-planned-parenthood-condom-man-video/

Recently, in an address to Catholics who came to Turin, Italy for the 47th annual Social Service Week, Pope Francis said the following, “A population that does not take care of the elderly and of children and the young has no future, because it abuses both its memory and its promise.”. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/pope-francis-societies-that-dont-care-for-elderly-children-have-no-future/
Washington Post: Pass Gun Laws to Save Lives, Repeal Life-Saving Pro-Life Laws
Yesterday was Constitution Day marking the close 226 years ago of the constitutional convention in Philadelphia. Yet when it comes to constitutional rights, the Washington Post prefers those read into it the document by judicial activists on the Supreme Court over those plainly written in the text of the federal charter. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/washington-post-pass-gun-laws-to-save-lives-repeal-life-saving-pro-life-laws/

New York Times’ Overpopulation Fears Betray an Ignorance of Human History
Wow, the New York Times really has come over to the dark side. Last week I reported on an article from the grey lady about the German efforts to arrest its population decline that shows that the problem for so many countries isn’t a population explosion, but a population implosion (albeit in slow motion). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/new-york-times-overpopulation-fears-betray-an-ignorance-of-human-history/

Texas Newspaper Covers for Abortionist Who Killed and Injured Women
When Texas passed HB 2, it was almost as if the Abortion Industry saw the writing on the wall. Stay as far away as possible from the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act—too much public support, too horrific to have the public thinking about what a preborn child goes through as she is torn apart. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/09/18/texas-newspaper-covers-for-abortionist-who-killed-and-injured-women/
