		<description><![CDATA[Legislators in Washington State are on the verge of creating a government-endorsed “right” to immorality. News reports indicate that a proposed law instituting so-called “gay marriage” in The Evergreen State is now likely to pass both state houses.

If passed, the proposed law would mean Washington will join New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Iowa and Washington, D.C. in desecrating an institution created and defined by God. It is important to note that each of those seven states (plus Washington, D.C.) will have so-called “gay marriage” as a result of rogue state courts or legislatures. There has not yet been a single state to approve homosexual “marriage” as a result of popular referendum.]]></description>

As other presidents have done, President Obama issued a statement on the anniversary expressing his opinion on abortion. While other presidents (e.g., Clinton) have expressed support for abortion while paying lip service to making them “safe, legal, and rare,” President Obama took a unapologetically pro-abortion approach in his statement.]]></description>

While abortion advocacy groups will be celebrating this wickedness, those of us who embrace the truth about abortion will be mourning the loss of countless millions of precious lives. Because of that fateful day, millions of America’s sons and daughters will never see the light of day.]]></description>

President Obama’s National Institutes of Health (NIH) director has just approved four more human embryonic stem cell lines as eligible for federal research funding. Not only is research on embryonic stem cells (i.e., their destruction) morally wrong, but it is LESS effective than using other types of stem cells.]]></description>

Many infertile women turn to in vitro fertilizaton to help them conceive children. In vitro fertilization, or IVF, is the process of fertilizing an egg outside the womb. Once fertilized, the newly-conceived human embryo is placed in a woman’s uterus in the hopes that a successful implantation will occur.

But the chance of success implantation is not increased by implanting numerous embryo in a woman’s womb. New scientific research shows that success rates are basically identical between women who only have two embryos implanted and women who have three or more implanted. Doctors are now urging women to only have one or two embryos implanted.


However, such advice still misses the point.

		<description><![CDATA[A newly-released 911 tape shows that Planned Parenthood has botched yet another abortion.

The abortion was performed on a 28 year-old patient at a Planned Parenthood abortion clinic in Virginia Beach, Virginia back in October of 2011. Evidently, the abortionist botched his murder of the child and the woman began to suffer heavy bleeding, causing a clinic employee to call 911]]></description>

A new study released by the New York City-based Chiaroscuro Foundation shows that 83,000 abortions were performed in the nation’s largest city in 2010. That figure accounts for 40% of all pregnancies in the city that year.

This means New York City has the highest abortion rate in the nation, a rate that is almost double the national average.]]></description>

Planned Parenthood has had a corrupt and murderous history ever since its founding by infamous racist and eugenicist Margaret Sanger. Despite its mercenary business model of “legally” murdering humans for a price, American taxpayers (including pro-lifers) have been forced to contribute hundreds of millions of dollars to the vile and bloodthirsty organization.]]></description>

A 2007 survey conducted by LifeWay Research found that 70 percent of 23- to 30-year-olds admitted to breaking regular church attendance for at least a year from ages 18 to 22.
Fifty-two percent of these drop-outs attributed their departure to "religious, ethical, or political beliefs."]]></description>
