Terri’s death

Today Fr. Frank Pavone remembers Terri Schiavo’s death on March 30, 2005. I remember it very well. It is agonizing to recall and impossible to forget. It was possibly the darkest time of my over 30 years involvement in pro-life issues. The entire pro-life movement was unable to save the life (they really tried) of a helpless woman who was being slowly murdered by starvation and dehydration with the cooperation to varying degrees of the legal and medical establishments, the police (they even had snipers on the rooftop of her residence to stop those who might try to rescue her), […]

As I reached out my hand to touch hers, I could also reach it out to touch the vase of flowers that was next to her, and that vase was filled with water. The flowers were nourished; Terri was deprived of nourishment. Court orders saw to […]

The show speaks to pro-euthanasia ethicist Arthur Schaefer who suggests that Robert Latimer should have been given “mercy.” Schaefer also suggests that Corriveau should simply stop feeding her children, but Corriveau says she does not wish to starve her children to death.

‘What is the big deal about Catholics using birth control?’

It is more vital than ever that Catholics who understand the teaching of the Church on birth control be ever so patient with those who do not. After all, the sad reality is that for 50 years now there have only been a few Cardinals, Bishops, and priests who have given the proper time to this subject matter from the pulpit. Those who addressed this issue often suffered for it. Some were reprimanded by their Superiors, others were moved out to the farthest, most undesirable location in the diocese. It was so very painful for orthodox Catholics to endure. When […]

Obama’s Fluke: Seizing moral authority in the attack on religious freedom

Rush Limbaugh is under attack for calling Georgetown University law student and pro-abortion activist Sandra Fluke a “slut” and a “prostitute” after she called on Congress to force her nominally Catholic university to pay for her contraception and abortion-inducing drugs. Obama and his backers, including the mainstream media, have jumped on the incident in an effort to seize some sort of moral authority and popular support in a debate over Obama’s contraceptive mandate that up until now has been successfully framed in many quarters as an attack on religious freedom. Limbaugh’s comments were indeed indefensible, as he has acknowledged himself […]

It’s a wake up call, and one of the most encouraging statements I’ve heard in a long time.  It’s a Divine battle cry! The talk heats up after minute 2 where he notes in this talk addressed to Planned Parenthood Pres. Cecile Richards that “we have not doubt” that in the future Planned Parenthood will be seen as the “slave traders, the Nazis, the Communists and all those groups that seek to oppress people.” He then warns PP and […]

Shock: Oxford Neonatologist Says Time Has Come to Consider “Mandatory Organ Donation”

Shock: Oxford Neonatologist Says Time Has Come to Consider “Mandatory Organ Donation” by LifeSiteNews.com By Kathleen Gilbert OXFORD, UK, October 24, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) – According to Dr. Julian Savulescu, the Uehiro Chair of Practical Ethics at the University of Oxford, and neonatologist and Oxford graduate student Dominic Wilkinson, bold steps may have to be taken to increase the supply of organs for transplant.

CNN covers for Obama on infanticide support, cuts key information

On February 28 CNN’s Wolf Blitzer tried to play gotcha with Newt Gingrich regarding Gingrich’s statement during a recent Republican debate that the mainstream media had failed to scrutinize presidential candidate Barack Obama in 2008 regarding his opposition as state senator to the Illinois Born Alive Infant Protection Act. Blitzer, attempting to prove that at least CNN had covered the story, played a clip of “special contributor” David Brody of the Christian Broadcasting Network interviewing Obama on the topic. No surprise, the particular clip by which CNN chose to vindicate itself also appears to vindicate Obama, or at the very […]
