By Matthew Cullinan Hoffman   BRAZIL, February 26, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) – The courageous journalism of Brazilian reporter Hugo Marques, published today for the first time in English by LifeSiteNews.com, opens a window to a dark vision of Brazil’s savage, pre-Christian past, and the horrifying future that awaits the Western world should it decide to fully implement the ideology of death that is increasingly supported by the global intellectual and political establishment (see article at https://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/feb/08022604.html).   As LifeSiteNews reporter John Jalsevac revealed on Friday, the world’s most prestigious bioethics journal is now openly endorsing the practice of eugenic infanticide, the […]

Dear Readers,    Our interview with British magistrate Andrew McClintock reveals again that Britain is becoming truly totalitarian in its disregard for traditional freedoms and even reason. We are hearing that “totalitarian” word a lot about Britain these days and rightly so. It’s time for the British people to finally wake up to what is being done to them. The time left to stop the decline may be running out.   We mourn the loss of Priests for Life Canada National Director Fr. Jim Whelan. He died in the line of duty, doing the work that was so precious to […]
