It does not dwell upon the scientific nuances of the issue, but rather assists the reader to focus on the moral issues involved. The statement is not marked by condemnation, but rather by explanation. It is not a rejection of research or of those who stand to benefit from research, but rather a call to pursue the well being of those very individuals by preserving the moral standards that protect their dignity and that of the rest of us. The statement reminds us that there is... catholic exchange http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/2038016/posts#comment Sun, 29 Jun 2008 03:46:12 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1999783/posts NEW YORK, April 10, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Fr. Frank Pavone, the well-known head of the US organisation, Priests for Life, has recently posted two videos to the internet video website YouTube in which he demonstrates in graphic detail exactly what happens to a child in a surgical abortion. Using a plastic model of a child at 18 weeks gestation, a common age for surgical abortions, Fr. Pavone holds up a pair of forceps and demonstrates the procedure of dismemberment. He says dispassionately, "The forceps are used to grab one of the extremities of the child...and to pull them off....

Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, today commented on an Illinois judge’s ruling that a new Planned Parenthood facility there cannot open pending an investigation into the truthfulness of building permits filed by the abortion provider. "It's not surprising that Planned Parenthood lies. Lying and killing always go together. Aurora residents are rightly indignant that their community was deceived. They should be even more outraged that Planned Parenthood intends to kill children in this facility," Fr. Pavone added. "For that reason, the facility...

Turkish, Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, stated, "This court has placed itself embarrassingly behind the times by failing to hold doctors accountable for telling patients what grade school children already know about when a human life begins.  Moreover, abortionists are tearing arms and legs off of children in the womb, not destroying some unidentified mass of tissue whose species scientists don’t know how to figure out."Priests for Life is the nation's largest Catholic...

This year, Priests for Life is inviting pro-life people to observe March 9 as a day when we extend to abortionists the call to repentance and conversion.

If you neglect the unborn, you are not representing all the people. Roe vs. Wade excludes them from protection; we demand that they be included.
