The music world fights back!
2 Pro-life music videos.

Once again we come to the time of year that reminds us of all the children who should be here but are not. On this annual solemn occasion I offer you a few rays of sunshine to pierce the darkness of the culture of death.

Music has always had a profound effect on the culture of the world, and the world of today is no exception. The problem of course is that a disturbingly huge portion of today's popular music only adds to the destruction of sexuality and the dignity of human life. Two beautiful exceptions are Nick Cannon's Can I Live and Flipsyde's Happy Birthday. Can I Live is the true story of how Nick Cannon's mother planned to abort him, but changed her mind before going through with it. Happy Birthday is a father singing and apologizing to his aborted son.

Watch them. Share them. They are worth every second.

Get your TiVo ready!

National Geographic channel is running a program on January 14th showing multiple births while still in the womb. It shows them kicking each other and playing together inside the womb. I have seen a couple clips of the 4-d ultrasound that they use, and I just cannot see anyway that someone could watch it and say that they are not human or that they don't have a personality yet. It should be worthwhile to watch if you get National Geographic channel. Here is a preview.

She is so shady it's disgusting.

Click the link and you can watch Hillary Clinton's appearance on the Today Show this morning. It is aggravating to just listen to her. She dodged questions left and right, especially questions about running for president, about which she continues to say she has not made up her mind. Despite the question dodging, the most despicable and ridiculous thing she said is that the gauge she uses to decide on issues is how that issue will help our children. This just makes my skin crawl. How can anyone not see the contradiction between this and being pro-abortion?

Both of the polls they showed this morning said that currently she is not a front runner for the presidency or even the democratic nomination. Let's just hope and pray that she doesn't get into the White House.

Did you know we use human tissue from aborted babies to make vaccines?

"We all know that medicine belongs in babies, babies don't belong in medicine!

So the FDA has recently opened a forum in which consumers and medical professionals can voice their opposition to the use of aborted fetal and embryonic cell lines in vaccines. Some common ones that currently use these cells are chicken pox and rubella. This forum expires on December 28th, 2006."

I did not know this, and when I heard it I did not believe it. That is until I saw the actual docket against it on the FDA website:

"Docket: 2006D-0383 - Draft Guidance for Industry: Characterization and qualification of Cell Substrate and Other Biological Starting Materials for the Production of Viral Vaccines"

To add a comment to the docket click here. This really seems too bizarre and horrific to believe, but there it is. I guess the battle for the unborn has mroe levels than I could ever imagine. Pray!

What can you really say?

This is wonderful...

• Colorado Voters Pass Gay Marriage Ban, Reject Gay Benefits
• Tennessee Voters OK Amendment Banning Gay Marriage
• Wisconsin Voters Approve Amendment Banning Gay Marriage
• Gay Marriage Amendment Passes in Virginia
• South Carolina Voters Reject Gay Marriage
• Idaho voters approve gay marriage ban
• South Dakota also (good here, bad later)
  

...but a lot is not so nice:

• Arizonans reject gay marriage ban
• South Dakota Voters Reject Abortion Ban
• Oregon voters defeat a parental notification proposal
• California voters defeat a parental notification proposal

These last ones really make me the most upset. They rejected the law that minors have to notify parents before an abortion. Unless something changed that I didn't know about, minors can't vote! These are the parents saying, "I don't care if my daughter gets an abortion, and I don't even want to know." What are people thinking!?

The Stem Cell Debate in Missouri.



Michael J. Fox has been all over the news lately for promoting a candidate from Missouri who is promoting embryonic stem cell research, but there is another ad that hopefully will be drawing just as much attention in the very near future.

Jim Caviezel (Catholic), Everybody Loves Raymond's Patricia Heaton (Catholic) St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Jeff Suppan (Catholic), St. Louis Rams Super Bowl winning quarterback Kurt Warner (raised Catholic), and Kansas City Royals player Mike Sweeney (Check out his sweet Catholic website!) are in another ad speaking against embryonic research. You can see it here.

I had seen Heaton on the cover of Catholic Digest before, and obviously Caviezel is sincere in his faith, but I didn't know this about the others. Personally I think this is pretty impressive. Kudos to them!

BTW, Suppan pitched for the Cardinals last night, and they won. God is definitely on our side!
