By Weena Kowitwanji of AsiaNews.it   RepublishedÂwith permission THAILAND, October 31, 2006 – It is “ironically tragic” that a mother should “want the death of her child when she should protect him as best she can,” Cardinal Michai Kitbunchu, archbishop of Bangkok, told AsiaNews after some NGOs called for the legalisation of abortion in Thailand. The prelate said that “Catholic doctrine strongly opposes abortion since man was made by God in His image, and blessed him above all other creature. Human life is the Father’s most precious gift, valued and full of dignity.” The proposal to legalise abortion came at […]

From 'pro-choice' to supporting forced abortion

By Gudrun Schultz NEW JERSEY, October 31, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – President Bush has repeatedly spoken out against the New Jersey Supreme Court during election campaign speeches over the past week, criticizing the court’s decision to grant legal recognition to homosexual couples. “We believe in family values. We believe values are important,” President Bush said Monday, speaking to a crowd of 5,000 in Georgia. “And we believe marriage is a fundamental institution of civilization.” In a controversial ruling October 25, the New Jersey Supreme Court ordered the state Legislature to grant same-sex couples all of the legal rights of marriage, either […]

Commentary by Douglas Johnson  Director of Congressional Affairs  National Right to Life, Washington, D.C. I have been closely following the race for Tennessee’s open U.S. Senate seat over the past couple of months. I have been somewhat astonished at the degree to which many journalists, and even some conservative commentators, have unskeptically accepted the recent declarations by Congressman Harold Ford, Jr., that “I am pro-life.” Mr. Ford made this declaration most recently on Tucker Carlson’s program on MSNBC today (October 30). My astonishment is due to the fact that Mr. Ford’s claim to be “pro-life” cannot survive ten minutes study […]

By Meg Jalsevac VANCOUVER, October 31, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Approximately 60 Canadian Postal workers at the Commercial Drive Post Office in Vancouver, Canada walked off the job in protest rather than deliver a pamphlet that says homosexuality is “ungodly, unhealthy and unnatural.” The pamphlet, entitled ‘The Prophetic Word’, was written by Rev. Sterling Clark of Waterford, Ont and contained an article called “The Plague of this 21st Century: The Consequences of the sin of Homosexuality (AIDS).” In the article Clark compares AIDS with the Black Plague of the 14th century and blames homosexuals for the AIDS epidemic that has now […]

The head of the Barcelona abortuary, Carlos Morin, said on a Danish documentary that women from Denmark, Germany, Britain and Spain come to the clinic to obtain abortions after the legal limits in their home countries are exhausted. Danish doctors and politicians spoke out against the revelations after public broadcaster DR’s Magasinet […]
