The Miracle PhotoBy Frank Joseph MD
One of the most amazing photographs that you'll ever see is that of Samuel, a 21-week-old baby boy, whose tiny hand reaches out of the womb to grab the finger of the surgeon who was operating on him -- as if to say, "Thanks, Doc! You did a wonderful job." It happened when Dr. Joseph P. Bruner, director of fetal diagnosis and treatment at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, was performing a cutting-edge procedure on the 21-week-old fetus. For more, click... Albright Takes Hit For ClintonBy Katherine Sabelko
The Republican Congress declared no money would go to pay the United States alleged debt to the United Nations until the family planning programs were modified. Though the ink is a bit smeared and the print seems rather blurred, it appears little ground was gained on this issue. We can all hear Clinton whining, "They made me do it! It's not my fault!" Press reports cited Madeline Albright was prepared to buffer the blows of angry pro-abortionists when the decision was announced. For more, click... Judicial InsanityOnce again the sacredness of life was devalued by a San Bernardino, California judge when she ruled that a pre-born baby who died from injuries from a drunk driver car accident was not considered human.

Letters To the EditorYour newsletter seems to be getting better each issue and more in depth than many pro-life publications have been recently.
Congratulations on your efforts for presenting reliable information! Gloria Zelnick I was disappointed in your coverage of the sale of baby body parts. I don't think a disgusting topic such as that should be in your publication. For more, click... Pro-Roe SenatorsBy Fr. Pavonne of Priests for Life
The latest effort of the pro-abortion forces to deflect attention from the horror of Partial-birth Abortion, which the Senate voted last week to ban by nearly a two-thirds majority, was to introduce a resolution affirming that Roe vs. Wade was rightly decided. That passed by the slimmest possible majority. We need to keep a spotlight on partial-birth abortion until it is banned. It is also worthwhile, however, to point out a few implications of the pro-Roe resolution. For more, click... Legislative NewsA bipartisan majority of the US House of Representatives voted 271-156 to pass the Pain Relief Promotion Act (HR 2260) on Wednesday, October 27. The bill encourages physicians to aggressively use of pain medication and at the same time makes it clear that federally-controlled substances may not be used for physician-assisted suicide. Contrary to some published reports the bill would not rescind the Oregon law, but it would make it a crime for doctors in that state or other states to prescribe federally-controlled substances to a patient for the purpose of suicide.

Death At The DoorRight-to-die activists from around the world gathered Saturday, November 13, 1999, in Seattle, WA, to discuss and demonstrate do-it-yourself suicide devices. Such devices included the "expirator," which delivers a fatal dose of nitrogen, and a multitude of other devices using various gases (helium or carbon monoxide, for example). All the devices are designed to be built at home and used without interference from the legal or medical systems. The conference was sponsored by the Euthanasia Research & Guidance Council (ERGO) based in Junction City, OR, and founded by Derek Humphry. [11/13/99 - Associated Press]
Montana Attorney General Not to Appeal Parental Notification LawAttorney General Joe Mazurek decided not to appeal a state law requiring parental notification when a minor seeks an abortion. "The Supreme Court has repeatedly said that parents have a right to know if their daughter is having an abortion," noted Steven Ertelt, Executive Director of Montana Right to Life. "Parents are left to pick up the pieces after the physical and emotional damage of an abortion, but before that they are not entitled to have any knowledge of their daughter's abortion decision. That's outrageous." For more, click...
Horror In The HeartlandOmaha World-Herald, November 28, University of Nebraska Med. Center Using Aborted Children's Brain Cells for Alzheimer's Research covered the story of scientists at the University of Nebraska Medical Center using brain cells from aborted babies in Alzheimer's disease research. With this sick excuse for medical researchers to use other humans for their own personal ambitions, we have now faced a new area of spiritual evil. For more, click...
I Cried To God To Forgive MeI was 19 years old when I became pregnant. I generally used a diaphragm during sex, but that one night I was unprepared. I was single and going to college full time as well as working a part-time job. When I told my boyfriend of the news and asked him whether I should get an abortion, he said that he would be supportive of whatever choice I made. For more, click...

Democrats: Republican Party: Reform Party: Our Brother's KeeperBy Luhra Tivis Warren
It was a breezy summer day in Kansas City, 1993. Allison and I drove from her nearby home to the Kansas City abortion clinic in the early morning. I had just come from a speaking engagement in O'Neill, Nebraska. We were the first people to arrive there that day, even before the clinic employees. She parked at the curb, just across the sidewalk from the clinic. As we emerged from the car, we could see that something was not quite right at the entrance to the clinic, but we were not sure just what. For more, click... An Interesting Theory: Roe v. Wade Is Out the Door!By Katherine Sabelko
States too numerous to mention have attempted to pass laws banning the disgusting procedure of partial-birth abortion, yet time and time again, federal circuit courts of appeal have made conflicting decisions on the issue. For more, click... Congress Discussed Selling Baby Body PartsRep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., calls for hearings into the practice of "private companies that are involved in the trafficking of baby body parts for profit." "Very few people know that there are companies out there that buy the dead babies' bodies from abortion mills and then turn around and sell them," said Mark Crutcher of Life Dynamics For more, click...
