More Disturbing News from Abortion Clinics

During the Kermit Gosnell trial I wrote that Gosnell was not alone; that he is not some fringe lunatic making abortion providers look bad. I cited two other recent situations as proof. That blog was posted before Gosnell was found guilty of 3 counts of murder. Now I want to draw your attention to Douglas Karpen, who in 1989 actually twisted the head off of a baby using his bare hands. This 28 week old is known as Baby David, and the famous photograph can easily be found on Google. You might be thinking, “1989? That was 14 years ago!” Exactly. And 14 years later Karpen is still performing abortions in Houston. During that time two women have died in his office, and multiple women have suffered injuries. And recently more complaints have come against him. Karpen has been violating the new Texas law that requires women to see an ultrasound image of her baby before the abortion. When he does use ultrasound he has “falsified” the results, according to a wh

Reclaiming Love

Ajith Fernando, who led Youth for Christ, Sri Lanka, for 35 years, has written a commentary over 1 Corinthians 13, the “love chapter” of the Bible. Reclaiming Love teaches believers how to have “radical relationships in a complex world,” and the author picks apart the characteristics of love as penned by Paul. With chapters covering patience, honor, and perseverance, as well as chapters on not boasting, being angry, envious, or arrogant, Fernando takes the reader step by step through the world’s greatest teaching on what true love looks like. This book is written in a scholarly tone and would probably be best for believers who are older in the faith. The author cites many church historians as well as leading theologians of today, but what I appreciated the most was his sticking to the Bible and letting Scripture interpret Scripture by relying heavily on cross references. I would recommend this book to any student of the Bible who wants to examine his own lif

Margaret Sanger

In the past I have made references to Planned Parenthood’s founder, the racist, eugenicist Margaret Sanger. I have written about how she was inspired by Darwin to see to it that people who were unfit to produce quality “stock” should not be allowed to have children. This Darwinian belief led her to champion birth control and Planned Parenthood, which are based on someone more evolved planning your parenthood for you, controlling your births. It was never about “reproductive rights” or “access to healthcare.” In her words, “Birth control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race.” To prove my point, I just want to let Sanger speak for herself; here are some of my favorite Margaret Sanger quotes: “The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.” “[We should] apply a stern and rigid policy of sterilization and segregation to that grade of population whose progeny is tainted, or whose inheritance is such that objectionable traits ma

Kermit the Pig

The Kermit Gosnell story has been predictably underreported by the mainstream media for one obvious reason: this man’s horrendous acts of murder cast a negative light on abortion. By not reporting the story the media hopes to keep the average person from knowing what abortion really is like. Terms like “women’s health care,” “reproductive rights,” “terminating the pregnancy,” and “product of conception” sound nice and clean, whereas decapitating a living baby is bloody, painful, murder. If you don’t know about Kermit Gosnell, he is a late term abortion “doctor” who ran his clinic as if he were Frankenstein. He had a staff of unlicensed nurses who killed at least one woman by giving her a lethal dose of gas; he had a butcher shop of a waiting room with fallen-in ceiling tile, stinking fish aquarium, dirty chairs, bloody, urine-stained walls, unsterile equipment, and stuffed “biohazard” bags; his toilet continually backed up because babies were flushed; documents were falsified

Plan B Was Plan A All Along

Our country recently took another step towards totalitarianism, once again having one person make a decision that is contrary to what the majority of Americans support. This latest insult-to-democracy came in the form of Plan B, which is known as the “emergency contraceptive” that is available to women 17 years and older. This pill has only been kept behind locked glass and required a clerk to get it, hopefully after checking I.D. Now the age has been reduced to 15 years, and the drug is being moved to the store shelves, right next to condoms. The plan is to make buying Plan B as easy as buying Aspirin (meaning no parental consent is required). To the President’s credit, he is contesting part of this controversial ruling. According to the White House there is not yet enough evidence to decide if the drug is “safe and appropriate for younger girls.” Unfortunately, the ruling is being contested for the wrong reason. The question is not whether it is safe for 15-year-old gir
