Catchy title, eh?
So that song I posted about the other day? By David Cook? I’ve decided that it’s either the most romantic song ever or the creepiest song ever. I mean, have you ever actually listened to the lyrics?

I’m part of you indefinitely
Girl don’t you know  you can’t escape […]

Think like Thinking Man

If only more people saw it this way…
First, I am aware that some (agreed, not all) women do suffer unexpected physical and psychological damage because of an abortion. If abortions are to take place, I would want to encourage a climate of more informed consent, with some small time for reflection and for review of […]

Louisiana bans late-term abortion

Louisiana is the first state to ban late-term abortions since a federal ban was upheld earlier this year.
The new law allows the procedure only when the mother’s life would be endangered without it. It would be a crime in all other cases, including when the pregnancy is expected to cause health problems for the mother.
