Not a good month It has been a brutal month for North American radical homosexual lobby groups. First came President Clinton’s waffling on allowing homosexuals in the military. Next came the crushing findings of an Allan Guttmacher (Planned Parenthood) survey which revealed that only 2% of North American men have ever engaged in homosexual conduct and that just over 1% considered themselves [...]
I feel sorry for all those poor media types who have recently, in numerous heart rending columns, eulogized the brave and courageous Anita Hill. Here she is hobnobbing with the likes of Hilary Clinton and Gloria Steinem and being named Vanity Fair’s Woman of the Year. Why she’s even given credit for the election of President Clinton, the number of women elected [...]
Germany – With a recent decision on abortion availability, the German Supreme Court has taken modest steps towards advancing the pro-life cause in Europe. In a controversial ruling on May 27, Germany’s top judges overturned a liberal abortion law which would have allowed virtual abortion on demand. Under the new legislation, abortion will remain legal up to three months or in the [...]
Poles Favour Life – On January 20, the Polish Senate approved a bill that would limit abortion though not ban it altogether. The bill, which has already been passed by the lower house, only needs ratification from President Lech Walesa. Most observers feel that the pro-life president will approve it immediately. The law, which is by no means pro-life, would allow abortion [...]
Now that the Republicans George Bush and Ronald Regan have both moved out of the White House and into the history books, it’s time for pro-lifers to assess their administrations. Under both men, federal government spending on abortion was curtailed. The armed forces, third world relief agencies and medical clinics were prevented from using federal funds to promote or provide abortion. For [...]
POLAND – Legislators in Poland have watered down a bill which would have greatly cut the 500,000 abortions Polish women have every year. The bill backed by the Roman Catholic Church, would have given the country the most pro-life law in Europe. The amended law allows exceptions in the case of deformity of child, if the woman’s life is in danger, if [...]
Cheryl Eckstein senior, chief executive officer of the newly founded Compassionate Healthcare Network (CHN), has just learned how difficult it is to get out a pro-life message in the face of media opposition. During a presentation on euthanasia to a parliamentary sub-committee in Ottawa last November, Mrs. Eckstein showed a brief clip from a CBC Fifth Estate programme. Her video clip was [...]
Spare the Rod and Save the Child? Reports from the province of Sichuan in Southwest China continue to highlight the brutal measures enforced by the Communist Government to maintain population control. When fifty women became pregnant without Government permission, they, together with their husbands were forced to attend lectures on the evils of defying the state. When ten of the husbands refused [...]
Charlottetown. What can a grade school drop-out do to promote strong Christian values in a community? Quite a lot, if Ken Biso is any example. As soon as he understood what abortion was about, working to protect the unborn child became his most important volunteer activity. “Nature itself tells me this is a human being. Nothing else. Nothing less. I have no [...]
‘Gay’ rights flower in Connecticut. The state legislature has passed a sweeping homosexual rights statute. It criminalizes “discrimination” against homosexuals professional associations, landlords and business people; it gives extensive new powers to a state commission on Human Rights and Opportunities, including the power to subpoena defendants’ “books and papers” (Sec. 22[10]); and it bans any “advertisement” that “ridicules or holds up [...]
CONDOM USE AND FAILURE The following letter to the editor appeared in the October 20, 1990 issue of Great Britain’s leading medical journal, The Lancet. I was surprised that in your Sept. 22 note “A good fit?” you reproduce the London Rubber Company’s statement that “most condom failure is due to incorrect usage”, without exercising the same critical evaluation that applies to [...]
Confederation of Regions Party not Pro-life The Confederation of Regions (CoR) political party has adopted the same unprincipled approach to pro-life issues as the Reform Party. Moral issues of consequence are to be settled by constituency referendum, not according to moral principles. This is made clear in the April issue of the CoR/New Brunswick newsletter. The party hopes to participate in a [...]
St. Eleanors, PEI. At its recent annual meeting here, the PEI Federation of Home and School Associations called for AIDS education programs to emphasize abstinence as the only authentic protection, and to promote high moral standards and positive ideals for young people. The meeting resolved to challenge Health and Welfare Canada (which is heavily involved in producing and disseminating AIDS education [...]
-At Home Strike against life Even when Manitoba burses went on strike January 1, 1991, babies still died in the province’s hospitals. “We consider abortion an essential service. There’s been no increase in the length of time a women has to wait for an abortion and we expect to keep it that way,” said James Rodger, assistant to the president [...]
New York. Contrary to the wishes of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade organizers, New York major David Dinkins allowed a contingent of militant homosexuals to march in the March 17 parade. His honor was showered with epithets, jeers, and boos. Dinkins is pro-abortion and pro-homosexual; he had the ‘Gay Men’s Chorus’ sing at his own inauguration ceremonies as New York’s first [...]
