By John-Henry Westen   SAN FRANCISCO, September 28, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Following the discovery of an ad for a sadomasochistic street parade in San Francisco which mocked the Last Supper replacing Christ and His Apostles with leather-clad (and unclad) homosexuals, Concerned Women for America (CWA) and other groups called on California legislators to denounce the anti-Christianity.  Rather than denounce the ad, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has derisively dismissed any concerns.   Drew Hammill, Pelosi’s press secretary, responded to media questions on the offensive ad saying, “As a Catholic, the speaker is confident that Christianity has not been harmed.”   The […]

By Hilary White   LONDON, September 27, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The first contraceptive pill that provides a dose of active hormones every day that would halt menstruation, could be in use in Britain within a few months, according to the New Scientist. The drug, called Lybrel, is lauded for its ability to interrupt a woman’s normal fertility cycle and entirely stop her menstruation, potentially permanently. Its supporters say that once freed from their normal biological functions, women will be better able to compete with men in the workplace.    The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), approved the drug in May […]

WASHINGTON, DC, September 27, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Catholic League president Bill Donohue announced a national boycott of Miller Beer on this morning’s “Fox and Friends.” The boycott comes after leading Christian groups were outraged at Miller’s sponsorship of a sadomasochistic, anti-Christian homosexual parade which regularly includes full nudity and public sex acts. “Never have we experienced greater corporate arrogance than in this dispute with the Miller Brewing Company. Miller is sponsoring an incredibly outrageous and palpably anti-Christian event in San Francisco: the Folsom Street Fair,” explained Donohue. “This all started when we learned that Miller was sponsoring an event that […]

By John-Henry Westen   TORONTO, September 26, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A lengthy article published in the Ottawa Citizen Monday, which is being seen by some as a crassly one-sided pro-abortion propaganda piece, decried wait times for abortions in the city.    The article points out that the Ontario Liberal Government has given the private Morgentaler abortion centre in Ottawa enough taxpayer dollars to pay for thousands abortions this year alone.  “A.G. Klei, spokesman for the Ontario Ministry for Health and Long-Term Care, says the ministry provided enough money for the clinic to perform 2,350 abortions this year,” reports the paper. […]

By John-Henry Westen   LONDON, UK, September 26, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Popular homosexual musician Elton John, who regularly promotes homosexuality and has said he would ban Christianity, may be in hot water as police have seized one of his pieces of “art” on suspicion of breaching child pornography laws.  According to media reports police seized the photographic image from an art gallery in Tyneside.   Apart from promoting homosexuality, John has expressed his contempt for Christianity. In an August 2006 interview Elton John said, “I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred […]

DENVER, September 26, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A federal appeals court has issued a significant ruling saying that an employer’s concern over the use of restrooms by “transsexual” employees is legitimate, according to Alliance Defense Fund Senior Legal Counsel Brian Raum.  Raum explained further that the court ruled that “transsexuals” do not qualify as a protected class under Title VII. “The court delivered a significant legal punch to political special interest groups who are demanding that persons with Gender Identity Disorder be treated as though they were members of the opposite sex.  The court correctly ruled that employers have a valid […]

By Matthew Cullinan Hoffman   ITALY, September 25, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – In a meeting with Nicaragua’s new ambassador to the Holy See at Castlegandolfo yesterday, Pope Benedict XVI congratulated the Nicaraguan government for maintaining the country’s absolute prohibition of abortions in the face of heavy international pressure.   The pontiff expressed his “recognition to Nicaragua for its position in international forums on social topics, especially the respect for life in the face of not insignificant internal and international pressures.”   The pope was referring to Nicaragua’s decision to impose criminal sanctions on all abortions in 2006, which was renewed in […]

FRONT ROYAL, VA, September 24, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The Rev. Thomas J. Euteneuer, STL, president of Human Life International (HLI), today blasted a gang of 16 Catholic senators for their votes on an amendment to HR 2764 to overturn the Mexico City Policy instituted by President Reagan to prevent U.S. taxpayer dollars from funding overseas abortions. “For the most part it’s the usual suspects who claim to be Catholic while their consistent pro-abortion votes amount to a betrayal of the Catholic faith. We expect treachery from them,” Fr. Euteneuer said. “But the great disappointment here is Robert Casey, Jr., whose […]

DENVER, September 21, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A Federal Appeals Court has dismissed a case brought by abortionists and other abortion supporters against Kansas for attempting to enforce their mandatory child sex abuse reporting law. Legislators had changed one word in the statute, rendering the case moot.   Kansas law requires that health care professionals, teachers, and other professionals who work with children must report all suspicion of sexual abuse. Aid for Women, a Kansas City abortion mill run by abortionist Sherman Zaremski, filed suit against former Attorney General Phill Kline after he issued an opinion indicating that abortion clinics were […]

By John-Henry Westen   TORONTO, September 20, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – As Canada, in large part due to aggressive behind the scenes lobbying, rolls out the not-comprehensively-tested Merck HPV vaccine for girls as young as nine, a look at developments on the vaccine south of the border should cause Canadians serious concern.  In the United States a similar lobby campaign by the same company launched the mass HPV vaccination of girls beginning in June last year.    In just little over a year, the HPV vaccine has been associated with at least five deaths, not to mention thousands of reports of adverse […]

MINNEAPOLIS, September 18, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Attorneys with the Alliance Defense Fund filed a lawsuit last Tuesday in federal court on behalf of an Illinois clinical psychologist who lost his contract with the city of Minneapolis because of his membership with a politically conservative, pro-family organization. “Pro-family, Christian conservatives cannot be treated as second-class citizens,” said ADF Senior Legal Counsel Brian Raum.  “Government officials do not have the right to end someone’s contract on the basis of religion or political viewpoint.  The city of Minneapolis is engaging in viewpoint discrimination, and that is clearly unconstitutional.”   Dr. Michael Campion, a […]

ANNAPOLIS, September 18, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Today, the Maryland Court of Appeals, in a 4-3 decision, upheld the state’s marriage law, which says “only a marriage between a man and a woman is valid in this state.” In January 2006 the circuit court for Baltimore City struck down the marriage law (Family Law Article 2-201) as discriminatory on the basis of sex, in violation of the Maryland Declaration of Rights, in the case of Conaway v. Deane.   Maryland’s highest court reversed the circuit court, ruling today that the marriage law did not violate the state Equal Rights Amendment, did […]

By John-Henry Westen TORONTO, September 18, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – When it comes to his Catholic faith, it plays no part in his political decisions.  So said Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty in a campaign stop at St. Augustine’s Catholic High School, in Markham, Ontario yesterday before 130 students.  “My Catholicism, my private faith, does not determine my position. My responsibility to the public interest does,” he said. The Premier has followed the example of pro-abortion former Liberal Prime Minister Paul Martin in using Catholic schools as campaign stops. (see coverage: https://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2005/dec/05120207.html )    Currently, McGuinty found it convenient to use the […]

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, September 14, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Judgment has been reserved in the “Bubble Zone” case concerning protest within a proscribed geographic area near abortion clinics.

Response to certain questions raised by US Conference of Catholic Bishops concerning artificial nutrition and hydration

By Meg Jalsevac   WASHINGTON, DC, September 14, 2007, (LifeSiteNews.com) – Last week Senator Bob Casey, Jr. (Democrat-Pennsylvania) actively contradicted his largely pro-life campaign promises by voting to approve a funding appropriations bill that would provide US funding to foreign organizations that promote and provide abortions.         The funding bill (HR 2764) would effectively overturn the Mexico City Policy, a foreign aid policy which expressly prohibits the funding of overseas agencies involved in abortion.  The policy was first adopted by President Ronald Reagan and continued in the presidency of Bush, Sr.  President Clinton repealed the pro-life policy on the first […]

By Hilary White   TORONTO, September 14, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The Catholic Civil Rights League (CCRL) has linked the recently released statistics on the decline of legal marriage in Canada to the so-called Three Parent case. In that case an Ontario judge ruled that a five-year-old child was the legal offspring of the father, biological mother and the mother’s lesbian partner.   The Supreme Court has refused to an application to appeal the 2006 case, which means that in Ontario not only the legal institution of marriage but the biological nature of the family has been overturned by the courts.

By Samantha Singson   NEW YORK, September 13, 2007 (C-FAM.org) – The US delegation to the UN sharply scolded a top UN official this week for perpetuating the falsehood that there is a new UN mandated global goal related to “sexual and reproductive health.” The exchange came during the Executive Board meeting of the UN Population Fund (UNFPA).

MARIE, ON, September 13, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Elected trustees of the Huron-Superior Catholic District School Board (H-SCDSB) have objected to implementing a plan to vaccinate girls in the Board’s Catholic schools with the controversial HPV vaccine.    The recently developed HPV vaccine is designed to prevent the sexually transmitted disease Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), the leading cause of cervical cancer.  HPV is not preventable with condom use.  The vaccine has had little long-term testing and is thus of concern to some health-care professionals. “This is presuming (premarital sex is) happening and I hate like […]

By Hilary White   September 13, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A Chinese couple is suing the communist government of China for a forced ninth-month abortion. Under the provisions of the one-child policy, Chinese citizens are required to obtain a license to have a first child.

This meant that their first child, a girl, was illegal.   Attempts to bribe local “family planning” officials failed and while Yang was out […]

Speaking to the international Catholic pastoral charity, Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), he stated that Nicaragua had no need of “therapeutic abortion” to protect the rights of its citizens.
