Monday, May 21, 2007 Too Many IVF Babies? "Reduce" Parents who utilize IVF (in vitro fertilization) must make a difficult decision if they choose to implant multiple fertilized embryos- which developing baby (or babies) do they keep and which do they abort? This Washington Post article from Sunday explores the ethical dilemmas and reactions of both parents and healthcare professionals.

In many states that is all they receive. Yet pro-abortion activists fear issuing birth certificates for stillbirths because pro-lifers might "hijack" the language and argue for the personhood of the "fetus." Kinda makes you scratch your head. Seven states are currently debating the issue in their legislatures.

Well it turns out that the concern was valid since New Yorkers who went to Massachusetts before a New York court ruled against gay marriage have had their marriages validated by a Massachusetts judge.

In fact, these scientists believe they will able to treat male human baldness as a result of their research, perhaps in five years! This research only emphasizes the variety and effectiveness of adult stem cell therapies which do not have the moral problems associated with embryonic stem cell research.

Wade When They're Accurately Told What It Means Pro-Lifers often have polls thrown in their faces that suggest that most of the American public opposes overturning Roe v. Wade.  As recent poll results show that could be because of how misinformed the public really is about what the famous Supreme Court decision actually does.  LifeNews.com reports on the poll results here. The poll was sponsored by and the Ethics and Public Policy Center and the Judicial Confirmation Network who both produced informative memos that fully explain the poll results (read them here, here, and here).

Though conservatives are often accused of seeking to "force their morality on others," in reality we merely oppose having a secular and unbiblical morality forced on us.  Christians should speak the truth in love to homosexuals and liberal activists, but that does not mean we should appologize for not wanting the homosexual agenda forced upon us and our children.

Marty Meehan's bill, H.R. 2093, and how it threatens free speech and our right to petition our government.  This bill lumps grassroots activists and ordinary citizens in with official "lobbyist" while putting onerous "disclosure" requirements on them thus shielding elected officials from the will and accountability of the people.  For more information on the dangers of lobby reform click here.
