Intellectual Dishonesty ~ by Darlene Pawlik
The Editors at National Review, not their real names, have decided that the pro-life candidates for president should back off from a 100% pro-life, no exceptions stand on abortion.
I do wonder if we were
talking about their demographic, if they would have the same opinion. For
example, if there were open season on reporters and someone wanted to outlaw
the brutal way they were killed, would they suggest exceptions?
Let’s just say that it would
be legal to take reporters into an abortion center and cut their arms and legs
off and crush their sculls. Let’s also imagine that this is government-funded
activity. Perhaps, we could imagine that the main company doing these horrific
murders was allowed to promote their activity in schools and public advertising.
Which reporters would they
decide were inferior? Which ones are not worthy of protection from such a law?
Perhaps, they would choose the writers of gossip pages. After all, they are
gaining from the bad news about other people. Or maybe it would be the ones who
report on the police logs. They are connected with criminal activity, right?
Of course, this is ludicrous.
They wouldn’t be of lesser value because they had some connection to negative
events. The reporters that report on crimes are not the perpetrators of those
crimes.
So, neither is a child
conceived by rape or incest in any way complicit with the crimes of his or her
father. Yet, these reporters think that those children should not be protected
from this brutal form of death.
There is an ignorant,
confused compassion that happens in the minds of people who have not had the
experience of becoming pregnant by rape. They impose their own beliefs on women
to society’s detriment.
Contrary to popular opinion,
women who conceive by rape don’t always want to kill their children. Many know
that their son or daughter is not the perpetrator. They know the child is not
an aggressor, but a second victim of the crime. They know that pregnancy is
temporary, but abortion is forever.
It is intellectual dishonesty
to decide some babies are worth protecting and others are not. I thank the few
candidates that hold the logical conclusion that if only some are protected,
than none are safe. This is what has lead to our current state of abortion on
demand.
To the Editors, I say, “You are practicing
intellectual dishonesty.” That tiny percentage of abortions that take place
because of rape you mentioned is partially because women who are pregnant by
assault are 50% less likely to choose abortion than women in other crisis
situations.
I strongly believe that it is
because they have been violated and they have an intuitive sense that they
would be further violated in their conscience, by violating the right to life
of another.
Society tells them that
killing their child will somehow remove the stigma of rape. This is asinine.
The Editors also mention that
abortion is enshrined in the law. This is a travesty. Instead of promoting this
unjust law, a few candidates are taking a stand against it. These Editors are on
the wrong side. Reinforcing injustice will never make it right.
In
a grievous act of judicial supremacy, five unelected men told the country that
our country’s preborn children would not be protected in the same way as born
children. Thus, a distinction of class was enacted across the nation.
We
have seen unjust laws that singled out a class of people to be held in low
regard. The Native American genocide and the horrible treatment of foreign
slaves were unjust. They had difficulty speaking up for themselves because of a
language barrier.
The
preborn class of people cannot speak up for themselves. It is only a level of
development that separates us. The circumstances of conception should have no
bearing.
They
need society to change the unjust law. They need us to stand up for them.
Darlene Pawlik, VP of Savethe1 and Chair of NHRTL Educational Trust, was conceived by rape and now works every day to stand up and speak up for those who are not able to speak up for themselves.

Planned Parenthood Puts Prices on Preborn Babies, But What Is YOUR Worth? by Robyn McLean
There are many articles being written on the exposure of
Planned Parenthood selling aborted baby parts (sometimes, a fully intact baby) through
videos, so, rather than focusing on similar facts and proofs, I am going to
share from my heart and dig into some tender areas.
One of the many issues that is weighing heavily on my spirit,
is that there’s more scrutiny just because the baby parts are being sold. It is a horrifying and truthful fact.
However, whether Planned Parenthood sells baby parts or not,
the horrified response from a diverse audience proves abortion is wrong and
dehumanizing. Do we suddenly realize a
human’s worth once a price has been put on them for someone else’s gain or
profit? Such a dreadful act should not
be the motivator to defend someone’s life, much less an innocent baby’s
life.
What do we need to put value on someone’s life? Is it status, background, prestige, ability,
possession, demand, rarity, desirability, beauty, and many other “qualities”
like these? It shouldn’t be. Though sometimes nice, such characteristics
and assets are certainly nowhere near an appraisal on human value. Culture has allowed the spread of human
insignificance to permeate who we are, unless we somehow “prove our worth” by
whatever will please those around us. We
have to fight that. But, perhaps most of
us cannot find much value within ourselves.
That too, weighs heavily on my heart.
This article is more than about the loss of innocent babies who were
waiting to receive love and to give love.
This article is about
YOU.
What are you
worth?
Perhaps others have not said it.
You are priceless.
You are a precious gem of a person, whether you’ve been discovered or
not. It doesn’t matter. YOU matter already. It’s not something you need to earn. It’s not something you need to perform or
display a certain way in order to establish significance. Other people do not base your worth.
You are not replaceable, and you are not disposable. Though humans in their erring ways have
spurned you, you are not unwanted. You
may not believe in God, but you are valuable to Him, and He’ll embrace you in
your messiest moments!
So, just because people in society have failed you, as much
as they have failed unborn babies, in establishing respect and value for your
life, that doesn’t lessen you as a person.
No one else can appraise you, because you are PRICELESS!!!

“Witches for Planned Parenthood” (and Satanists), by Jesi Smith
August 23, 2015
Don’t waste your time going on a witch hunt-- I found the witches and Satanists in front of Planned Parenthood in Ferndale, Michigan supporting the abortion mill this past Saturday with signs that read, “Witches for Planned Parenthood.” My husband Brad and I were there speaking with our fellow ‘Save The 1’ speaker Travon P. Clifton (www.savethe1.com) at the nationwide protest against Planned Parenthood’s trafficking of human organs, when my nine year old asked me, “Mom, why are those men pouring milk on those ladies?”
The Satanic Temple of Detroit members were right in front of Planned Parenthood in support of abortion and performed a strange act that included two men dressed in black and wearing priest collars pouring milk all over and in the mouths of two women kneeling in front of them. One of the woman actually went down to her hands and knees as she choked on the milk and spat some of the milk back out of her mouth. In the appalling demonstration the women in their subservient positions on the sidewalk looked like they were being water-boarded with gallons of milk by the Satanic priests all in the name of women’s ‘rights’. Watch video of the FOX 2 Detroit report On the other side of the road that same morning, a mature black Ypsilanti pastor, Dr. Levon Yuille of Joshua’s Trail radio , joined hundreds protesting Planned Parenthood’s selling of the organs of the children they aborted to offer his support of life and prayed for women and their babies -- the perfect antithesis to the young white Satanic priests who shamefully had women kneeling in front of them in support of the literal death and dismemberment of children. The contrast of each movement was never more visually stark.
Satanic support of abortion has been popping up all over the country. In Missouri, Satanic worshipper “Mary Doe” is suing Governor Jay Nixon claiming the state law requiring a 72 hour waiting period before an abortion violates her religious beliefs. The Satanic Temple even raised money on GoFundMe to pay for the Missouri woman to travel to St. Louis for her child’s abortion. (See story at www.lifenews.com.) A particularly disturbing look into the Satanism’s intrinsic involvement in abortion has recently been reported through an interview with a former Satanist Zachary King. In King’s 26 years within the Satanic occult he was a part of 141 ritual abortions and described doing ritual satanic abortions at the abortion clinics and other locations. “In Satanism, killing something or the death of something is the most effective way of getting your spell accomplished. As far as trying to get Satan’s approval, to give you something that you want, killing something is the best way to go. Killing something is the ultimate offering to Satan, and if you can kill an unborn, that is his ultimate goal,” King explained as to why abortion is so important to Satanists.
Why should anyone be surprised that Satan worshippers walk lock step with the abortionist? Rebellion against God is at the very heart of the most appalling Satanic ritual of all -- child sacrifice. What could be more rebellious against the Creator than to dismember, throw away, or sell off His best creations…our children? A merciless and Godless society is created when people sacrifice their own sons and daughters and practice divination, sorcery, and engage in witchcraft. That is why God calls on His people to “rescue those being led to death and hold back those staggering toward slaughter,” so that we would live in stark contrast to other brutal peoples who murder with sadistic rituals. Certainly, when our country systematically dismembers and either throws away like trash or sell organs from our children to the highest bidders, we blunt any edge that we have to condemn beheadings and brutality abroad.
My friend Travon had the same impression of protesting Planned Parenthood in Ferndale last Saturday, “bizarre”. There we were taking our place so near to where innocent children were condemned to death, speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves, and watching witches and Satanists yelling only to find out later they were chanting, “Hail Satan”. My husband Brad’s reaction was as undaunted as ever, after he saw the sign “Witches for Planned Parenthood” and the Satanists dousing women with milk he leaned over to me with a smirk and said, “My mom always said, ‘You are the company you keep.’”
