Andra Merritt Answers Felony Charges for Secretly Recording Planned Parenthood Execs

/0 Comments/in , /by

A pro-life hero for exposing Planned Parenthood’s collusion in the baby-parts industry, Sandra Merritt appeared in criminal court Wednesday. Last month California brought a 15-count felony charge against her.

Merritt works with David Daleiden, founder of the Center for Medical Progress. Posing as employees of a fake company and sing fake names and IDs, they went to a conference with abortion providers in 2014 and met with Planned Parenthood executives. They secretly recorded 14 people.

Some videos show Planned Parenthood employees describing late-term abortion methods. Others show executives haggling over compensation for fetal tissue. The conversations appear in multiple videos released since 2015.

The Charges

California’s Attorney General Xavier Becerra charged them in March. He brought one charge for each of the 14 people filmed. The 15th is for conspiring to invade privacy.

Becerra is a former Democratic congressman. He took the position when former Attorney General Kamala Harris left for the U.S. Senate this year. Harris began investigating Merritt and Daleiden in 2015. She had taken donations from Planned Parenthood.

California law makes it illegal to record someone without their knowledge when they reasonably expect privacy. However, other journalists have not been charged for similar investigative work in California.

An animal rights group filmed at California poultry farms in 2014 and 2015, National Review notes. It exposed mistreatment of ducks and chickens. State authorities didn’t charge the group. They did investigate the farms.

This isn’t the first time that Merritt and Daleiden have been charged for their undercover work. A Texas grand jury charged them with felonies for using fake identification. The charges were dismissed last year.

Planned Parenthood

Planned Parenthood claims it does nothing wrong. In March, it called the undercover videos “fraudulent.”

The organization has also claimed that the videos were “deceptively edited.” However, as LifeSiteNews noted, they released their full recordings. An independent analysis showed that the “Planned Parenthood executives caught on video clearly say what they said.”

Merritt and Daleiden’s undercover work sparked investigations of Planned Parenthood in several states. They’ve had effect.

Even though no states brought charges against Planned Parenthood, The Federalist noted, Planned Parenthood stopped receiving money for aborted fetal tissue. Two medical companies were recently charged with illegally profiting from fetal tissue. The companies are “top partners” of Planned Parenthood, The Free Beacon reported.

Committees in both the U.S. House and Senate have investigated Planned Parenthood for over a year. Rep. Diane Black of the House panel said the investigation “laid bare the grisly reality” that abortionists are “driven by profit.”

WTVB reports that Merritt and Daleiden will appear before a California court again on June 8. Liberty Counsel is seeking dismissal of the charges. (For more from the author of “Andra Merritt Answers Felony Charges for Secretly Recording Planned Parenthood Execs” please click HERE)

Bill Allowing Adopting Agencies to Refuse Gay Couples Becomes Law

/0 Comments/in , /by

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey signed a bill on Wednesday that would allow adoption agencies in the state to turn away gay couples who want to adopt a child. The law purports to support religious freedom by not forcing faith-based organizations to potentially close down or face penalties as a result of acting in accordance with religious beliefs. Like many religious freedom bills that have been passed in various states, House Bill 24‘s language frames the issue as preventing discrimination against religious people or institutions.

“This bill would prohibit the state from discriminating against child placing agencies on the basis that the provider declines to provide a child placement that conflicts with the religious beliefs of the provider,” the text of the bill says.

“The bill is not to discriminate against anyone,” Rep. Rich Wingo, who sponsored the bill, said to AL.com. “Nowhere in the bill does it say anything like that or lead you to believe that.” (Read more from “Bill Allowing Adopting Agencies to Refuse Gay Couples Becomes Law” HERE)

Obama’s Sex Secrets Laid Bare

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The sex secrets of the young Barack Obama have been revealed in an authoritative new biography of the ex-president.

Obama slept with his girlfriend Genevieve Cook on their first date, before she wrote him a poem about their ‘f***ing’ and called their sex ‘passionate’, the book about the former president reveals . . .

Obama also considered a gay relationship while at college, twice proposed to another white girlfriend, and cheated on Michelle with his ex during the first year of their relationship.

His past is revealed in the 1,078-page biography Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama, to be published on May 9.

Obama, a new Columbia graduate who was working for a firm that prepared financial reports at the time, made dinner for Cook at his apartment in Manhattan two weeks after meeting her at a New Year’s Eve party and handing her his phone number. (Read more from “Obama’s Sex Secrets Laid Bare” HERE)

The Lesbian Porn Star Who Claims to Be an Evangelical Christian

/0 Comments/in , /by

I’m not going to mention her name, nor will I link to her story. The last thing I want to do is point a struggling reader to a website that might draw him or her into temptation. Suffice it to say that the woman in question is reputed to be a well-known porn star in her home country (which is not America).

She was being interviewed on an X-rated TV show when she explained that she had an “evangelical faith” and was a “good person at heart.”

The host of the show was surprised by her comments, saying to her, “But how do you relate that to your work because people believe a porno actress cannot be evangelical and cannot be religious?”

God Sees Our Hearts — Differently Than We Do

That’s certainly a fair question. How, pray tell, do you reconcile having sex with multiple partners on camera with being a person of evangelical faith? How do you reconcile choosing to be an object of lust to thousands of viewers with being a follower of Jesus?

Doesn’t the Bible condemn adultery and fornication? Doesn’t Jesus say that to lust after a woman is to commit adultery with her in his heart? Doesn’t He also pronounce judgment on people who lead others into sin?

The porn star responded: “People are very judgmental. They try to make you conform in a way they think an evangelical should be because society says so.”

What? It’s being judgmental to say you can’t commit sexual immorality for a living and serve God at the same time? It’s society, rather than Scripture, that says that porn movies are wrong? The Lord has no issue with videos that degrade women, with videos that celebrate perversion, with videos that incite lust?

Not according to this young star. “I think God sees inside our hearts,” she said. “He judges the good and the bad things you do, and I do good things for people.”

Yes, He sees our hearts, and He sees this woman as a poor lost soul in need of a Savior. She might be a very sweet person. She might do lots of good things for others. But she is a sinner in need of forgiveness, and what she does for a living is ugly is God’s sight.

“I’m a good person at heart and that’s what matters,” she said.

Her holy Creator differs with her assessment. And this is where all of us can learn a lesson. We can deceive ourselves as easily as we can deceive others. We may not be porn stars, but some of us are porn addicts. Yet, we say, “God sees my heart, and He knows I’m a good person.”

Right in One’s Own Eyes

Before I was a believer in Jesus, I was a heavy drug user to the point of shooting heroin at the age of 15. I stole drugs from a doctor’s office. I even stole money from my own father. I had a terrible temper and would tear people up with my words. And I indulged the flesh every way I could.

Yet when my best friends came to faith and talked to me about the Lord, I said to myself, “If there really is a God, He knows I’m a good person. He knows if I see a homeless man on the streets, I’ll give him some change. If I see an old woman entering a building, I’ll open the door for her.”

What deception. That’s why the Scriptures say that every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the hearts (Prov 16:2).

Getting back to this porn star, she explained that “my family don’t have a clue about what I do for a living. I haven’t told them, but to be honest, I really don’t care if they find out.”

In fact, her being a porn star isn’t the big issue to her churchgoing family. They’re upset because she divorced her husband and now lives with a woman.

She said, “My family was really shocked when they found out. It took them a while to accept because their evangelical beliefs and prejudice against gay relationships made it hard for them to come to terms with my decision.”

So, the plot thickens. Not only is a she a porn star. She’s in a sexual relationship with another woman. She said, “I’m prepared to live with anyone so long as they make me happy, and that could include finding love with a transsexual.”

Who cares about the will of God? This is what you call living for self. Yet for this deluded young woman, it’s all fine with the Lord.

As a teenager, she realized how much she enjoyed sex, especially when others were watching. “I love my work,” she said, “and I want people to appreciate and respect what I do. It’s a job where I make good money and I am successful. … I still have a normal life outside and when I get the chance, I go to church with a Bible in my hand.”

Are We Deceived?

As the old saying goes, deception is very deceiving.

But perhaps there’s one more lesson to learn.

There are plenty of churches in America (and other nations) where you can be a porn star (or alcoholic or wife-beater or thief) and sit comfortably through sermon after sermon without the slightest feeling of conviction. You’ll hear a pep-talk gospel or a feel-good gospel or a self-help gospel — it’s all about me! — without hearing a call to turn from sin.

And carrying a Bible in your hand without taking the words of that sacred text to heart will do you no good at all.

Could it be, then, that it’s not just this porn star who is deceived? Could some of us be deceived as well? Could it be that some of us who are the quickest to condemn this lost young woman are the biggest hypocrites of all?

I pray for the repentance of this young, deluded soul. But I pray for our repentance as well. It’s time we undeceive ourselves. Attending church services, Bible in hand, is no substitute for a holy life. (For more from the author of “The Lesbian Porn Star Who Claims to Be an Evangelical Christian” please click HERE)

Conservatives Beware: Ivanka’s Leftism Is on the Rise

/0 Comments/in , /by

There was a moment during the presidential campaign when then-candidate Donald Trump made conservative jaws drop as he defended Planned Parenthood on national TV during a Republican primary debate.

“Millions of millions of women — cervical cancer, breast cancer — are helped by Planned Parenthood,” Trump said more than a year ago on the CNN debate stage in Houston. “I would defund it because I’m pro-life, but millions of women are helped by Planned Parenthood.”

We now know, according to a New York Times interview, it was the president’s daughter, Ivanka, who convinced him to spare those kind words for the organ harvesters at Planned Parenthood.

Now off the campaign trail and in the White House, Ivanka Trump is getting a grip on government to gain greater influence with the president of the United States.

In the Times interview, Ivanka said she is “still at the early stages of learning how everything works.”

“But I know enough now to be a much more proactive voice inside the White House,” she said. She’s proactively pushing the administration left.

According to the Times, Ivanka’s liberal influence in the White House is expanding. She meets with top administration officials and even reviews President Trump’s executive orders before they are signed.

The two trade thoughts from morning until late at night, according to aides. Even though she has no government or policy experience, she plans to review some executive orders before they are signed, according to White House officials. She calls cabinet officials on issues she is interested in, recently asking the United Nations ambassador, Nikki R. Haley, about getting humanitarian aid into Syria. She set up a weekly meeting with Steven Mnuchin, the Treasury secretary.

Ivanka, described by the Times as a “moderating force” in the White House, intends to push the administration left on climate change, immigration law enforcement, and refugee policy. She said in the interview that she has no “hidden agenda.” That’s true, as her liberal agenda in the White House is plain for all to see.

She’s already said this week that the United States may need to admit more Syrian refugees into the country. She also wants to “go beyond her father’s campaign pledge” and include both mothers and fathers in the administration’s proposal for a paid maternity leave entitlement. Early in the administration, Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner successfully defeated an executive order on religious freedom. Ivanka Trump has been a consistent voice in opposition to conservative policies.

All the while, she has held secret meetings with liberal special interest groups – including Planned Parenthood – for their input on policy coming from the White House. And she gets alone time with the president to pitch those liberal ideas.

“A lot of their real interactions happen when it’s just the two of them,” Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner told the Times. Ivanka reportedly will tell other members of the president’s staff “I need 10 minutes alone with my father” when she wants to change his mind. Though not always successful, by her own admission she has “modified” some of the president’s positions.

“I’ll go to the mat on certain issues and I may still lose those,” Ivanka said. “But maybe along the way I’ve modified a position just slightly. And that’s just great.”

As Congress prepares to pass an omnibus spending bill that does not include President Trump’s campaign priorities – cutting government spending, funding the border wall, and defunding Planned Parenthood – conservatives may wonder why President Trump is not fighting harder for his priorities. Are these positions that Ivanka Trump has “modified”?

Ivanka’s outsized influence with the president speaks to the need for conservative voices in the White House. If the president continues to yield to his daughter’s liberalism, he will fail. (For more from the author of “Conservatives Beware: Ivanka’s Leftism Is on the Rise” please click HERE)

Kansas City Catholics Banish Girl Scouts and Their Cookies

/0 Comments/in , /by

There’s a new commandment for Catholics: Thou Shall Not Eat Tagalongs.

The Archdiocese of Kansas City recently announced they are severing ties with the Girl Scouts. And that means no more Girl Scout cookies, too. Say goodbye to Thin Mints and Do-Si-Do’s.

The Archdiocese says Girl Scouts is no longer a compatible partner when it comes to issues like virtue and values.

The Washington Post reports that Catholics fear the Girl Scouts’ programs and materials are “reflective of many of the troubling trends in our secular culture,” and that the organization is “no longer a compatible partner in helping us form young women with the virtues and values of the Gospel.”

The Archdiocese said some of the material used in the past has been offensive, disturbing and age-inappropriate. (Read more from “Kansas City Catholics Banish Girl Scouts and Their Cookies” HERE)

A Huffington Post Humanist Urges the Church to Stop Using the Bible as a Moral Guide

/1 Comment/in , /by

It’s one thing when a humanist attacks the Bible. That’s expected. It’s another thing when a humanist attacks a Christian denomination for using the Bible as a moral guide. But that’s exactly what humanist author Clay Farris Naff did in the Huffington Post on April 29.

Naff was upset that the highest court of the Methodist Church struck down the consecration of Bishop Karen Oliveto. Her only infraction was being married to another woman. How, he wondered, could the church punish her for love?

He writes, “To anyone free of ancient prejudices, the injustice of condemning Oliveto is plain. How can love be wrong? How can love enfolded in commitment and fidelity be wrong?”

The answers are simple and self-evident. Love is not always right, even when it’s “enfolded in commitment and fidelity.”

Marriage Has Meaning

A father may love his adult daughter in a romantic way, but that doesn’t make the relationship right. Twin brothers in their 30s may love each other in a sexual way, but that doesn’t make their sexual activity right. A man who no longer loves his wife may now love his female co-worker, but that doesn’t make his adultery right.

It’s possible, of course, that Naff has no problem with consensual adult incest or with adultery. And maybe he has no issue with polygamy or polyamory. But as a thinking man (which he clearly is), he should be able to understand that conservatives have reasons other than “ancient prejudices” for opposing gay marriage. After all, there were ancient cultures that celebrated homosexuality. Yet they still recognized marriage as male-female only.

That’s because marriage has had a specific function and purpose through the millennia. It’s not just “ancient prejudices” that cause many of us to reject its redefinition. Or is it only prejudice that believes God designed men for women and women for men? Or is it only bigotry that believes it’s best for a child to have a mom and dad?

Naff asks, “What possible harm can her marriage cause? Not even the claim of setting a ‘bad’ example holds water. People do not choose their spouses on the example set by clergy. If they did, there’d be no Catholic children, and poor, sultry Elizabeth Taylor could never have married even once.”

Actually, many people do follow the examples set by their leaders (including clergy). As for Naff’s argument regarding Catholicism, wouldn’t he argue that the sins of some pedophile priests have been especially heinous, because they are looked to as religious leaders?

Of course, I’m not comparing Oliveto’s “marriage” to her partner to a priest abusing boys. I’m simply saying that clergy have a special responsibility to set good examples. Their bad examples have a wider, ripple effect.

“Sacred Scripture” — Or Not?

Naff then focuses on the Bible itself. He uses the same hackneyed, pro-gay arguments that have been refuted time and again. (For example, he claims that Paul’s categorical prohibition against homosexual practice in Romans 1 is merely “a tirade about some unnamed people who turned their backs on God and indulged in, er, Roman-style orgies”).

He also seems oblivious to the idea that when Methodist leaders speak about “Christian teaching” on homosexuality, they don’t refer exclusively to the Bible. They’re speaking in general about the unanimous teaching of virtually all branches of Christianity for nearly 2,000 years. And they’re speaking in particular about the clear teachings of the Methodist Church throughout its history.

But this is not important for Naff. He he feels there’s a much deeper problem with the Methodist Church: hypocrisy. Why, he wonders, does the Church not ban divorce like it bans homosexual practice?

Because according to Scripture, there are some legitimate causes for divorce. These are recognized by the Methodist Church. It is remarriage that’s in question. But that’s a question he fails to ask. (He could have made a better argument had he addressed that question.)

Either way, Naff isn’t calling for a church ban on divorce. Instead, he explains:

I am trying to help you see that the Bible may be many things — historical treasure, poetical comfort, and sacred scripture — but as a moral guide, it is hopeless. Some claim to follow its commands literally, but they deceive themselves. No one can do so, for the Bible is a hodgepodge of contradictions and morally obscure or outrageous injunctions.

So, it’s fine if we take the Bible to be “sacred scripture.” But we must realize it’s “a hodgepodge of contradictions and morally obscure or outrageous injunctions.” Not to mention “hopeless” as “a moral guide.”

Thanks but no thanks.

That kind of “sacred scripture” is neither sacred nor scripture. Why anyone would take comfort in its words and find guidance for life if the Bible is what Naff describes it to be?

Bad Logic

After launching a few more (weak) salvos against the Scriptures, Naff writes:

Look at the Bible with fresh eyes, and you’ll find the record of ancient peoples who, lacking any police force, detectives, or proper jails, did their best to construct rules for getting along with each other and used the fear of God to enforce them. Look even closer and you’ll find that those in power often bent the rules in their favor. I suppose God might have wanted the people to heap silver, gold, and fatted calves on their priests, exempt them from any real work, and give them a retirement plan (Numbers 7 – 8), but I find it more likely that the priests themselves heard the Word of God that way.

Put another way, this is not the Word of God, so don’t treat it as the Word of God. Instead, Naff states:

I’ve shown that the United Methodist Church is interpreting the Bible to privilege the heterosexual majority while sanctimoniously applying ancient “laws” in a questionable way to Bishop Oliveto. But more important, I hope I’ve shown that Methodists, and all other religionists, would do well abandon the effort to apply scriptural codes to contemporary life. Draw inspiration, by all means, but recognize that the hard work of thinking through right and wrong remains a moral duty for us all.

In truth, Naff did not prove his points at all, let alone demonstrate them in such fashion that Methodist leaders should feel beholden to follow his counsel.

But it is not merely Naff’s attack on the Bible that falls short. It’s his logic that falls short as well. If he is right in his description of the Bible, there’s no reason for the Methodist Church (or any church) to exist. There’s not even a reason for a single synagogue to be found on the planet if what we call sacred Scripture is merely a compendium of human ideas, many of them flawed, and none of them perfectly inspired.

In short, if Jesus is not the Son of God who died for our sins and rose from the dead, Christians are believing lies. End of subject. And if the Torah was not given by God through Moses, Jews are believing lies. That’s all that needs to be said.

If the Bible is not a moral guide, it cannot be a spiritual guide, since it purports to tell us who God is and what He requires from us, His creation.

Human Reasoning vs. God’s Word

I do understand Naff’s concerns about religious fundamentalism, which he has articulated elsewhere. But he fails to understand that

1. The Bible’s moral witness is quite coherent when studied holistically and in-depth

2. Scholars have answers for the questions he has raised, along with many more

3. There are solid reasons, both practical and moral, to stand against homosexual “marriage.”

What is lacking is not the inspiration of Scripture or the wisdom of Scripture or the moral authority of Scripture. What is lacking is the understanding of human beings (including Naff). That’s exactly why we need God’s Word.

Human reasoning alone will always fail us. God’s Word will never fail. (For more from the author of “A Huffington Post Humanist Urges the Church to Stop Using the Bible as a Moral Guide” please click HERE)

GOP to Pro-Life Voters: What Planned Parenthood Defunding?

/0 Comments/in , /by

At the 44th annual March for Life this past January, Vice President Pence told thousands of eager, dedicated marchers that “life is winning again in America.” However, the Republican Congress’ capitulation on Planned Parenthood funding in the latest round of budget talks tells quite a different tale.

Following a national election cycle in which the pro-life cause became a conspicuous and consequential issue in the wake of the Republican Party’s trifold victory in the House of Representatives, Senate, and Oval Office, the GOP is already squandering the momentum of that victory by passing a budget resolution that … wait for it … still funds Planned Parenthood.

Under the gun to avoid the closet-dwelling bogeyman of a government shutdown, congressional leadership has reached a last-minute deal that still funds Obamacare subsidies, doesn’t allocated border wall funds, and keeps the pipeline of federal dollars flowing to the abortion industry’s flagship operation completely untouched, according to POLITICO.

There were and are a host of reasons to stand firm – if not for the simple necessity of keeping one’s most salient promises, for the various reminders such as a new video about Planned Parenthood’s dealings in baby parts or a haunting mountain of colorful baby socks dumped on Capitol Hill. Still, we get: nothing.

This debate over the flow of tax dollars to America’s largest abortion provider is, of course, a debate that goes back farther than the 2016 election, as then-Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana led the House to cut the flow in 2011.

Furthermore, in addition to the cornucopia of campaign promises and the pro-life political drama during the campaign of fret and worry about whether the presumptive nominee would stand up for the cause of the unborn – despite all the apprehensions to the contrary – abortion became a clear watermark issue during the debates, in which the relatively recent convert to the cause squared off against the tired, second-wave feminist extremism found in Hillary Clinton’s rhetoric.

As recently as a week ago, the Democratic Party itself, in contrast, had the beginnings of a decisive moment it its own history. Tom Perez’s statements that pro-lifers do not have a home in the party of Jefferson merely serve as a reminder of how extreme the group’s leadership has allowed it to become. Yet, they’ve won this hill for now, extremism or no extremism.

What this moment shows is that pro-lifers are more and more finding themselves in the midst of a tragic dichotomy, between a party too hostile to their views to entertain them and one that takes their support for granted – even if they don’t realize it. But alas, dead babies don’t vote, they don’t run Fortune 500 companies with the clout to stymie years-long campaign talking points (See: Obamacare repeal), and they definitely don’t write checks. All the promises, all the posturing, all the work of the pro-life movement — gone.

As this goes forward, pro-lifers who placed their hopes on a Republican Congress – all of whom ran on the most pro-life platform in party history – will be told that there will be some next great hurdle they must cross in order to finally do what they’ve been promising for so long.

For now, it seems that the Republican Congress has adapted that old Democrat fig leaf in order to pass a budget. They are, after all, “personally pro-life,” but don’t seem to have the gumption, pluck, or will to do anything about that conviction.

World’s Oldest Woman Shares Her Secret for Living Long

/0 Comments/in , /by

A 117-year-old Jamaican woman recently became the world’s oldest living person. She’s still able to be up and around a bit and talk with lucidity. Her secret? Her faith and serving God.

When asked what has contributed to her long life, she says, “My faith in serving God, and believing strongly in the teachings of the Bible.” She is especially fond of the scripture, “Honor your parents that your days on this earth may be long,” reported CBN. She also said she worked hard and ate well. “I don’t eat pork and I don’t eat chicken,” she said, “But I eat any other things: greens, mutton, beef, fish, that’s what I eat.”

Violet Mosse-Brown was born on March 10, 1900 to a Christian family in Duanvale, Trelawny, Jamaica when it was still part of the British Empire. She still lives in the town.

Baptized over 100 years ago at the age of 13 at Trittonville Baptist Church, Brown still remembers the Bible verse Rev. A.G. Eccleston gave her that day. “I cannot forget that on my baptismal day the pastor gave me the Scripture, Psalm 119:133 to keep in my heart: ‘Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.’ From that day, I have not forgotten that Scripture and I allow it to lead and direct my life,” she said to the Jamaica Baptist Reporter.

Brown spent her life serving her church in various ways. She was recently honored for her more than 80 years of service to her church, much of that spent in children’s and music ministry. Brown has given “many years of dedicated service to the church and many of the songs that the church members and choir now sings, they learnt it from Sister Brown,” said her pastor, Rev. Harrif Allison. He added that the community agreed that Mrs. Mosse-Brown’s legacy is “undoubtedly that of a Christ-centered and spirited contribution to the work of Christ in Duanvale and Sherwood Content in Trelawny.”

The Prime Minister of Jamaica, Andrew Holness, tweeted congratulations to Brown on becoming the oldest person alive:

Brown told the Jamaican Baptist Reporter exactly what she does that contributes to a long life: “I love God, memorize His Word and follow His way.” (For more from the author of “World’s Oldest Woman Shares Her Secret for Living Long” please click HERE)

Planned Parenthood Admitted Abortion ‘Kills the Life of a Baby’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Planned Parenthood touts in-facility abortions as “a very safe, simple and common procedure.” It also proclaims abortion is “one of the safest medical procedures you can get.” The abortion provider says abortion ends a pregnancy, but never refers to the new life as a baby. But Planned Parenthood once said exactly the opposite.

Abortion “Kills the Life of a Baby”

Obianuju Ekeocha, founder of Culture for Life Africa, came across two Planned Parenthood pamphlets, one of which was dated 1952. Both pamphlets declared that abortion “kills the life of a baby.”

One pamphlet answers the question, “Is [birth control] an abortion?” with “Definitely not. An abortion requires an operation. It kills the life of a baby after it has begun. It is dangerous to your life and health. It may make you sterile so that when you want a child you cannot have it. Birth control merely postpones the beginning of life.”

The pamphlet admits that, not only can an abortion make a woman sterile, but that abortion is killing a life that has already begun. Glenn Beck commented on Monday that “[w]e’re now advocating for murder of children according to their own pamphlet.”

That Was Then

That was then. Planned Parenthood’s website now says that aborting a child is easy and safe with “no risk to your future pregnancies or to your overall health.”

Multiple studies have found just the opposite. One February 2014 study found that induced abortion is linked to an increased risk of breast cancer. And that the risk increases as the number of induced abortions increase. Another study also found that there was an increase in risk for cancer with multiple abortions.

Abortion can also lead to fertility problems later, the Mayo clinic reported. Sterilization after an abortion can happen when baby body parts are not completely removed. It can happen when a woman gets an infection after an abortion. It can also happen if the woman’s cervix or uterus is damaged by an abortion.

Planned Parenthood does not tell women what happens if they choose abortion. It doesn’t tell them the risks they’ll take. Once, 65 years ago, they told the truth. (For more from the author of “Planned Parenthood Admitted Abortion ‘Kills the Life of a Baby'” please click HERE)
