Law in the Service of Life

Did You Know…?

Did you know that reversing Roe means the abortion issue will return to the States?

Fetal homicide is still a crime. Negligent homicide of an unborn child is still a crime. It's time that the principles of federalism and the democratic process apply to the violence of abortion as well. BDF's Dorinda Bordlee stated that "Abortion facilitates the sexual exploitation of women, coerced abortion, and the dismembering of human beings. Based on prior state laws, only the abortion provider would be subject to criminal penalties for profiting from the bodies of women and children."

As explained by BDF president and general counsel Nikolas T. Nikas, "If you want to see what a decision reversing will look like, then read the U.S. Supreme Court's 1997 decision in Washington v. Glucksberg, finding that physician assisted suicide is a matter for each state based on its 'unqualified interest in the preservation of human life.'"

Bishops Should Not Apologize for Praying for President Trump

I have prayed many times with President Trump, both in person and via conference call. He is a man who believes in the power of prayer, as do the vast majority of Americans. He and his team regularly invite pastors to pray with him. And no president has done more for believers, and for the […] The post Bishops Should Not Apologize for Praying for President Trump appeared first on LifeNews.com. [...]

Colombia Becomes 47th Nation to Declare There’s No Right to Abortion
