I think I'm most distrubed by the "comments" section. Is there really nobody who can give an argument against abortion without using the Bible? You'd swear that was the case...........
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Post: “Everyone who has been aborted raise their hand if they think abortion doesn’t hurt anyone”
>> Leroy Carhart was at his abortion clinic near Omaha... It was Sunday morning... [finished] the abortion before checking his phone.
Sick son of a b!tch. And to even publish this garbage... Newsweak rots more each new week.
You telling me this guy can't murder a baby & talk a phone call at the same time? What a loser.
Why is there such a focus on Late Term or Partial Birth Abortion?
The Pro Life Movement must realize that Life begins at Conception and that a Late Term Abortion is no worse than an abortion at four weeks or the use of an IUD or birth control pill that prevents a baby “fertilized egg” from implanting.
I can't believe I ever subscribed to that rag.
Many of us can, it just seems the most active in the pro life movement are Christians, and them quoting scripture is like a secularist quoting the alphabet, it is where their ideas, words and thoughts spring from.
Another abortionist (from Denver, I think) paid for a full-page ad in a local paper recently. Naturally, he praised Tiller, and then went on to praise himself and Tiller as “American heroes”, and actually had the nerve to compare himself andTiller to the American soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy. All I could think of was how many babies he had to kill to afford a full-page ad. Not really that many, I suppose, since abortion is a very profitable racket.
Nothing like scraping out the unborn on a Sunday morning.
Christ rested on the 7th day, but abortionists cant take off, they have too many fetus’s to kill.He probably left the clinic and had communion.
NewsWeek can’t seem to have enough good things to say about the guy
Yet another example of why I haven’t bought a Newsweek magazine in over 20 years.
What garbage.

Newsweeks Sarah Kliff, in a January 27, 2009 web-exclusive article entitled Pro-Lifers In Obamaland, failed to mention how several organizations and individuals she labeled as pro-life have friendly relations with pro-abortion Democrats. She also tried to portray the pro-life movement as being split between those who are preparing for the fight of their lives and those who see an opportunity to redefine what it means to be pro-life, with the latter being the organizations sympathetic to the Democrats. Kliff wrote sympathetically of these groups, which are actually trying to muddy the waters of pro-life activism
Kliff began by introducing Sister Sharon Dillon, a 50-year-old former director of the Franciscan Federation who has been a pro-life activist since high school. Sister Dillon doesn’t agree with Roe v. Wade, but shes also frustrated with the kind of single-minded activism she sees around her. What does Sister Dillon see as being single-minded? Apparently, its young girls chanting, hey hey, ho ho, Roe v. Wade has got to go! So Kliff started with the premise that wanting to overturn this Supreme Court ruling is single-minded.

Perhaps because it is the Bible and the associated Judeo-Christian ethic that has been the philosophical underpinning of the West. Some Christians remember that and go direct to the source. Morals don’t occur in a vacuum...they come from somewhere.
Unfortunately, our society/culture is forgetting God anf His Word, the Bible, and, as it does, engaging is legal murder through abortion and euthanasia (physician assisted suicide included). Our government even wants to force those opposed to these murders to pay for them.
