I want to take time to acknowledge and mourn the death of James Pouillon, a pro-life advocate who was gunned down as he peacefully protested outside of a high school in Michigan this September.

Following up on my last post, The Greatness of a Society, I want to share excerpts from an incredibly well done pro-life movie that is in the works.

Many are familiar with the saying that “The greatness of a society is measured by how well that society cares for the weakest human life.” I find myself reflecting on this regularly during the shifts in our nation.

The Stoning of Soraya M has now been released, and while I haven’t seen it yet, it has already impressed me for several reasons. It stars Jim Caviezel, the actor who played Jesus in The Passion of The Christ. Caviezel is a devoted Catholic and a courageous actor who boldly integrates his Christian faith with [...]

I was impressed by how well this article articulates some of the root issues in the discussion of life in regard to our current presidential administration.
Professor Kmiec and I share common ground in the belief that every member of the human family—irrespective of race, class, and ethnicity, but also irrespective of age, size, location, stage of [...]

Many people accept the concept of “limited resources” and “overpopulation” without much thought–but what are the implications of these ideas–and are these ideas true?
This morning as I listened to the radio on my drive to work, a news clip came on about Hillary Clinton, President Obama, and Pro-Life policies. I turned up the volume to [...]

I know so many people who talk about the painful circumstances that lead one to a decision to choose abortion over life. One has to be realistic about the challenges of broken homes and single parenting, abuse, and the list is endless . . . and yet the potential for each of these broken lives [...]

Style vs. Substance
Here is a powerful reflection by Josh Harris on Obama, style and substance:
My five-year-old son, Joshua Quinn, has been following the presidential election with his dad. To him it’s another sport alongside football and NASCAR. Someone wins. Someone loses. He can understand that. He has seen various candidates on TV and he’s been [...]
