Abortionist Kills Disabled Babies as Old as 37 Weeks if They Won’t Have “Productive Lives”
Ask yourself why would an Irish publication call one of the four American abortionists who will openly abort after 30 weeks? In this case it’s the Irish Independent’s Caitriona Palmer who phoned Susan Robinson, whose late abortion clinic is in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
There are two obvious answers. We have written several times about the documentary “After Tiller,” in which (a) Robinson (left) and three others are placed on a pedestal for aborting huge babies, and (b) abortionist George Tiller, killed in 2009, is glorified as one of the pioneers of this grisly trade. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/abortionist-kills-disabled-babies-as-old-as-37-weeks-if-they-wont-have-productive-lives/
Disabled Unborn Children and Abortion: Perfection is Only Found in One Person
Perfection is a ghost. Many of us pursue it all our lives in our own strength, only to find it unattainable. We keep our faults hidden and run from those who are less than our image of “perfection.” This attitude can be deadly.
Most of us are woefully ignorant of the fact that the “imperfect” — children with disabilities — are targeted for elimination prior to birth. Over 90% of preborn children diagnosed with Down Syndrome are aborted. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/disabled-unborn-children-and-abortion-perfection-is-only-found-in-one-person/

Pastor Mark Driscoll: Science and Scripture Make it Clear Abortion is Murder
On October 18, Fox News published an op-ed on abortion by Mark Driscoll, founding pastor of the famed Mars Hill Church in Seattle. Driscoll wrote boldly, recognizing both the science and the Scripture that inform us about human life. As Driscoll put it:
Both science and Scripture are absolutely clear that life begins at conception. Taking a human life is murder, by definition, which makes abortion a murderous act. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/pastor-mark-driscoll-science-and-scripture-make-it-clear-abortion-is-murder/
Environmental Activists Scare Women Who Want Children With Unscientific Warnings
USA Today opinion columnist Carrie Lukas, who is the managing director of the Independent Women’s Forum and a mother of four, issued a poignant reminder to the culture on Sunday when she observed that, despite the fact that childbirth is the safest it has ever been, mothers are constantly being warned and worried about the risks and difficulties that may be associated with parenthood.
Lukas recalled that, during her first pregnancy, she heeded frightening warnings about the possible mercury levels in canned tuna. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/environmental-activists-scare-women-who-want-children-with-unscientific-warnings/


The Tragedy of Miscarriage Does Not Justify the Travesty of Abortion
The argument usually goes as follows: Some 50% of pregnancies end in miscarriages, which means that thousands of “unborn humans” die naturally.

So to be consistent, you should advocate that doctors try and find a cure for miscarriages so that you can save all those lives that are lost. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/the-tragedy-of-miscarriage-does-not-justify-the-travesty-of-abortion/

Baby Born With Large Facial Cleft Proves Life is Beautiful
On June 18, 2012 a baby boy named Dominic Pio was born into the world who, had he be given different parents, may never have been born at all.
Mid-way through her pregnancy, Mary Gundrum would learn that her son had an encephalocele, an extremely rare birth defect that occurs when part of the skull doesn’t close properly, allowing the brain to grow through that opening in the skull. Told that her baby boy might not survive the pregnancy or his birth Mary, along with her husband Mark, didn’t contemplate abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/baby-born-with-large-facial-cleft-proves-life-is-beautiful/


Planned Parenthood at 97 Years: 6,300,000 Babies Aborted, Billions in Profit
This week Planned Parenthood wished itself a Happy 97th Birthday. Its Facebook page and Twitter feed featured the image of a single candle, atop a frosted and sprinkled cupcake, with the following words: “97 years ago the first Planned Parenthood clinic opened in Brooklyn,New York. Today, we celebrate the 3 million patients that come to us every year for high-quality, affordable health care.”
The American Life League took the meme head-on, with a counter-candle and a counterfactual of its own: “Planned Parenthood is celebrating its 97th birthday. But the 6,300,000 babies aborted in its facilities won’t even have one.” http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/planned-parenthood-at-97-years-6300000-babies-aborted-billions-in-profit/

Population Control Extremists: Get Rid of People Causing Global Warming
The tired old argument has returned. People are going to end the planet. The oceans will rise, the land will burn, and aliens will invade. Ok, there are no predictions of an alien invasion … yet. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/10/20/population-control-extremists-get-rid-of-people-causing-global-warming/
