4D Ultrasound very powerful

Meghan Kelly on her show at FOX showed a 4D color ultrasound of a living, moving, baby at 17 weeks to tell her audience what Dr. Nucatola's meant by a'17-weeker'. She did the same during the replay of a clip in which Dr. Gatter referred to a 12-week 'specimen'. I found it very powerful imagery. How many people know that a 12 week unborn baby moves so much?
I wonder if the next Planned Parenthood videos to be released could have an inset of these 4D ultrasounds or similar? Because Doctors can be very influential and when they speak with such a disregard fro humananity, a person on the fence might wonder -  'well she thinks it's ok and she's a doctor.' Just a thought. A picture is worth a thousand words.

The reference to the 17-week baby begins at 10:29.

At 3:29 there is a beautiful movie of a 12-weeker, the one that Dr. Mary Gatter is referring to as a possible 'intact specimen' if the rules can be bent and the baby be delivered for sale whole.
How have those doctors lost their humanity?

Your local Planned Parenthood may be harvesting baby parts

http://www.lifenews.com/2015/07/14/shock-video-catches-planned-parenthoods-top-doctor-selling-body-parts-of-aborted-babies/


They are doubting it - Snopes, liberal news sites, because - it is too horrible to be true, but it is true.
I am not surprised - I read a book in 1983 called 'the Abortion Industry'. I was appalled. I've also read testimonies from biologists who dissect baby remains to get what they want for their research.
According to Dr. Deborah Nucatola, Planned Parenthoods Director of Medical Services, the doctor can manipulate the birth, so that the head comes out last, therefore preserving it better than if it came first through a cervix that was not wide enough to accommodate it.
To preserve the body part required, the doctor can 'crush above or crush below'. He can use ultrasound to guide the forceps and the 'grasper.' Remember the Baby is alive and sensitive to touch after 12-14 weeks, and is seen on ultrasound to draw away from the forceps and the aptly named 'grasper.' (for images of abortion instruments, see:
http://abortioninstruments.com/index_instruments2.html)
So we are talking Partial-Birth Abortion here, which is Illegal.
And how odd that this 'blob of tissue' or 'bunch of cells' has 'extremities' - Feet? Hands? And organs like livers, and hearts, and lungs, and heads.
Abby Johnson of And Then There Were None urges us to pray for Dr. Nucatola, for nobody is beyond redemption, and we should listen to her.
I hope though, that the media do not run from this like they did from Kermit Gosnell. They have to get to the Truth. They must! Tell them!

Amnesty International has disgraced itself

50 years ago, it was unthinkable for anyone to suggest that abortion should be on demand for 9 months of pregnancy for any reason, whatever the laws said in different states and countries. The most vocal prochoice view is that there should not be any time limit on abortion and this is the view that is constantly being propogated by the liberal media.

We have Wendy Davis who fillibustered in Texas presented as a heroic woman when that State tightened its abortion laws in 2014, and a couple of prominent politicians refuse to say that abortion at 9 months would not be wrong. On the plus side, there have been many prolife victories and it is very important that these continue. We also have the 40 Days for Life and the stats say that abortion numbers are down. This should make us very happy.

However, the mainstream media is far from telling any prolife view in any depth. On social media, anybody who objects to abortion at any stage in pregnancy is called a bigot, a zealot, a misogynist, a right wing nut, and accused of waging this stupid 'war on women.' It is disturbing to encounter Hatred, and there is plenty of it about.

Amnesty International supports abortion on demand. It ignores the fact that an unborn child can suffer a tortured death in the womb, and correct me if I am wrong, but does not their Raison d'Etre rely upon their opposition to torture? This is indeed a disturbing position. Ireland must now suffer a campaign by Amnesty to liberalise her abortion laws. Ireland has been very battered in the wars, and the lies, misrepresentations and vilifications continue. But Ireland is not giving in easily.

But suppose for a moment that the USA will have abortion on demand acceptable and legal, which is what could happen if we flag or get tired of our hard work. Will the prochoice lobby be satisfied?

Maybe you, like me, have heard suggestions that a mother should have the option of 'after birth abortion' that if she does not feel capable of mothering, or the child has an undiagnosed defect, she should be able to kill him or her.

After all, the only difference between a born and unborn child is the location and the fact that a born child uses her lungs and takes in food by mouth. But these could easily be explained away, and the child could be given a sedative and starved to death. It's already here, for handicapped children. I saw it happen in England when I was a young midwife there, that a newborn was secretly fed chloral hydrate. Only at the time, I didn't know what was going on. If you can play God before birth, why should you stop? After all, the baby would be better off dead, yes? We are being compassionate, yes? 

But I see another danger if this became legal...just like live embryos and the remains of aborted children are used for research, these unfortunate infants, being born alive and legal Nothings until the mother decides whether she wants the baby or not, could be taken after she has signed for death and kept in labs, until they are of no more use to anybody, when they would be killed.

Do I sound crazy? They have done this with baby monkeys, our cousins, and can you not hear scientists say that it would be so much better to use real human tissue? Can't you hear the arguments already? Last year, there was outrage about the Kalin experiment in the University of Wisconsin when there were plans to experiment on newborn monkeys, and it was thankfully dropped. My concern is that there would not be the same outrage for baby humans!

Lobbyists can make a case for anything; they give money to politicians for their support, and get the ever-compliant media on their side.  Researchers would point to any and all useful help this kind of research could be to Humanity. A few celebrity endorsements and hard cases, and these unwanted infants could be destined for a lab, like rats, before being euthanized.

After all, if Amnesty International can endorse a surgery that involves tearing a baby limb from limb while alive and awake, anything can happen.

 Let's stop this madness here. Killing baby humans inside or outside the womb must Become Unthinkable.  Let's keep Educating. Love Them Both, for there will always be women who do not want to carry a child to term.

Pray as if it all depends on God, Work as if it all depends on us.

To the Young People of Ireland

I sent the following letter to the Irish Times, I wonder if it will see print?

Dear Editor,
To the young people of Ireland – if you were born since 1983, the 8th Amendment was for you. Ireland is still one of the safest countries in the world to be pregnant in. Maternal mortality is much lower than in the USA, India, and most other countries where abortion is legal. The young Irish are informed enough to know that. Ireland’s 8th Amendment is validated by developments in the last 30 years - we have 4D ultrasound and fetal surgery and studies which show the detrimental effects of abortion on women such as the Klemetti study of Finnish women in 2012. After 40-plus years of legal abortion in many countries, there are survivors, now grown, real people - do they deserve any hearing? Google ‘abortion survivors network’ to read their stories, backed up by medical records. There’s the Pro-Life Alliance of Gays and Lesbians (PLAGAL); there are former abortion activists turned prolife, Dr. Bernard Nathanson who was converted by watching an ultrasound of an abortion; Norma McCorvey – the ‘Roe’ of Roe vs Wade in 1973. There’s‘And Then There Were None’ a new organization that helps abortion workers find other jobs, founded by Abby Johnson, herself a former Planned Parenthood Director until she witnessed the procedure on ultrasound. Until then, she did not know what abortion really was. Not to mention the numerous organizations helping distressed women in supportive and practical ways – too many to count -  and the films based on testimonies of real women – ‘22 Weeks’ and ‘October Baby’. There’s a film in the making about Dr. Kermit Gosnell. It will be up to you to get informed and to go behind the curtain the mainstream media draws over the prolife side. There’s a whole world of knowledge out there. Keep the 8th! Oh and Hard Cases make Bad Law, as Dr. Alec Bourne found out after he helped get abortion legal in the UK. He tried to put it into reverse before he died. Thank you for reading this, and have a long and happy life!

Gen X - Survivors of Roe - reject Abortion


'Young Americans — voters under 30 — were once the most gung-ho in support of unfettered legal abortion. In 1991, fully 36 percent believed abortion should be legal under any circumstances. But by 2010, 18-to-29-year-olds had become more pro-life than their parents — only 24 percent still wanted to keep abortion legal in all cases. More than any other age cohort, in fact, young adults are now the most likely to think abortion should be illegal in all circumstances.
In a sense, every American born since 1973 is a survivor of Roe. Perhaps that explains why, however young people might label themselves, abortion is a choice so few of them are prepared to take.'

Late-term Abortion would be like another Rape for Victim.

A 10-year old girl  pregnant as a result of rape refused abortion in Paraguay - she is 22 weeks pregnant. There is an outcry, but nobody has said that a late-term abortion would be akin to another rape. Here's why.
The cervix, the entrance to the womb, has to be artificially widened to allow the passage of the baby, (dead baby in this case). Or the passage of limbs and skull if the abortionist dismembers and crushes the body parts. To widen the cervix, the abortionist puts a series of rods into the girl's body. These expand within her and widen the cervix over a few days before the abortion is carried out.
Don't you think that would be a horrible experience for a rape victim?
 So, someone asks, why not induce 'fetal demise' with an abdominal injection and induce labour by pitocin, allowing the cervix to open naturally during labour? That would put the girl in labour for days, and she may well be too small yet to deliver vaginally. Many child brides in poor countries like the Sudan or Ethiopia die or are seriously injured in childbirth because they are too small.
The best for this poor child and her child would be a c-section and have the baby adopted or have a relative care for him or her. It is a tragic situation. But abortion would be a horrible experience for the poor young girl. Why does nobody say that?

It's Friday. Sunday's comin'!

Reflection by Fr. Frank Pavone

This meditation, based on a sermon I once heard, is adapted for pro-life concerns.

It’s Friday. Jesus is on the cross. He has been killed by his enemies; he is off the scene.

But thats because its Friday. Sundays comin!

It’s Friday. Abortionists continue their work 3,300 times a day, tearing off the arms and legs of little babies and crushing their heads.

But thats because its Friday. Sundays comin!
It’s Friday. Pro-abortion groups receive blood money from billionaires who are as deceived as they are.

But thats because its Friday. Sundays comin!
It’s Friday. Liars attempt to speak for all women and hide the pain of abortion, and ignore the evidence of how it harms women, and call abortion a blessing.

But thats because its Friday. Sundays comin!
It’s Friday. People of hardened hearts guard the clinics and usher desperate women in to have their abortions, while keeping them from the pro-life people who want to give them hope.

But thats because its Friday. Sundays comin!
Hope does not mean that we ignore or minimize the evils around us. It means, rather, that we see the whole picture, which is that evil is conquered because of what happened one Sunday morning.

We are called to proclaim, celebrate, and serve that victory, waiting in joyful hope for Christs return and the full flowering of the Culture of Life!

Indeed, Sunday’s comin!
