NFP is supported by the Catholic church. It couldn’t be farther away from abortion.

The NY Times is *so* busted. The NFP helps women *avoid* abortions.

They teach Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage Education.

Thanks.

However if you check out their voting report card, its not so good. They were against Roberts and Alito, and it is almost a strong pro-abortion legislation.

They do support abortion and work constantly to relax restrictions on it. They want all woman (and girls) to have all the contraception and abortions they want.
I went to a liberal woman's college and all these groups were well represented there.

These stories are reporting the lobbying Thompson was hired to do was to get the funding restriction relaxed against clinics that offer abortions.

National Family Planning and Reproductive Health Association, which supports abortion rights,

NFP as supported by the Catholic Church stands for Natural Family Planning. Not the same thing.

Not that this changes my support for Fred in anyway......

I think you’re confusing the group with Natural Family Planning, the method used by many to avoid pregnancy. The group about which the article is written is some ‘Family Planning’ group. Maybe they were trying to get federal funds for abortion. Didn’t work.

“NFP is supported by the Catholic church. It couldn’t be farther away from abortion.”

I believe you are mistaken.

[fetal heart beats by 21st day]

Natural Family Planning (NFP) is supported by the Catholic Church, not National Family Planning(ie-ABORTION).

When will you realize you are supporting a mirage?

BTW, Life is not about federalism. I know some of you have convinced yourselves that Fred’s vague statements about “a woman’s decision,” and “between her and her doctor” can somehow be stretched into a federalist argument. It can’t.

Natural Law is fundamental to this country’s founding. Before there was a constitution, there was a declaration that listed THE RIGHT TO LIFE as the first and most fundamental of our natural rights. The protection of life is both a national and state obligation.
By suggesting we can “give it back to the states” is to say “I wash my hands of it. The people will decide if they want Jesus or Barabbas.”

A society that does not defend innocent human life defends nothing. There are no librites without life. There is no pursuit of happiness without life. There are no rights to private property or to defend oneself or one’s family if LIFE is not protected as SACRED.

A government that does not defend life is no government. A politician is worthless if he only takes a public stand when it helps his own career.

Tennesse is a conservative state. To take a prolife stand when running in Tennessee is not an act of courage-it is pragmatic.

A person who actually cares about the brutal torture and dismemberment of the most vulnerable members of the human family, “the least of our brethren” does not allow aides to fill out paperwork regarding his position on life and he does not hide behind attorney-client privilege-especially when those documents have been exposed by his former clients.

Go get some coffee, find a quiet corner, and examine the facts for yourselves.
