Planned Parenthood vs. Planned Parenthood Posted on September 15, 2007 by Neil

Marc T. Newman, Ph.D., President of MovieMinistry.com, gave a terrific presentation at the CareNet Pregnancy Center Fall Fundraiser this week.

One of the most intriguing things he mentioned was a Planned Parenthood advertisement published in 1964 to promote birth control. Read the whole thing, then consider this from the Q&A section:

Is it [birth control] an abortion?

Definitely not. An abortion 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 meaning of life.

There you have it! Straight from the experts at Planned Parenthood. Read that again and try not to drown in the irony.

So Planned Parenthood used to teach that abortion kills a baby and poses medical risks to the mother. As Dr. Newman asked, what did Planned Parenthood learn since the early 1960’s that caused them to change their stance on what abortion really does? carenet-walk-05-55.jpg

Could it be the sonograms and 4-D ultrasounds? No, those do more than anything to promote the pro-life view. Technology is the enemy of pro-legalized-abortionists and it always will be. They might have gotten away with the “blob of tissue” argument in the 60’s, but not today.

Could it be the studies showing the impact of abortion on women? No. Despite major political pressure, more studies continue to show the adverse impact abortion has on women – both physically and emotionally.

Or could it be the megabucks they make from abortions that caused them to change their minds?! money.jpg

Folks, always remember that when it comes to abortion, Planned Parenthood had it right the first time: “An abortion kills the life of a baby after it has begun. It is dangerous to your life and health.”

Be sure to quote them on that whenever you can.

****Wow. What changed their tune, when they realized the $$$$ that could be made?****

I’ll list what I can think of off the top of my head.

Roe v. Wade

Decades of communist and leftist infiltration and indoctrinization in the k-12 and college educational institutions.

Decades of communist and leftist infiltration of media institutions.

Constant attacks from these institutions on the Family Unit and Judeo/Christian standards.

Constant attacks from these institutions on individual responsibility of favor of a collective solution.

The watering down of the Judeo/Christian message by false religious institutions, and infiltration of standard religious institutions by leftists, and homosexuals.

There is much I am leaving out I am sure.

It is interesting that he made that connection. It seems he was correct but I have no idea why those things would connect in that way.

Well, the proof is clearly in the pudding but the tip was, I trust, the mindset. "Life" isn't just a word to the Church. It is the very work of God. To reject it (or the process that initiates it) at any stage is to choose death.

The rest follows.

To reject it (or the process that initiates it) at any stage is to choose death.

This, obviously, in the context of matrimony, which is so clearly designed for the primary purpose of building the Church by creating social building blocks and child rearing.

Excuse my ignorance everyone, but could someone tell me what the abortion laws are worldwide, abortion rates, etc, or where to find truthful info?

Thanks!
