Over 50 million babies have been aborted in the U.S. since Roe Vs Wade. We must be praying for an end to abortion...not a consideration but a necessity.   Gardenias4Lina

"We tell ourselves that the debate about access to abortion is the same as improving waiting times for hip replacement surgeries. Society has done a masterful job of selling abortion as a human rights issue. But society ignores that framing the issue of abortion as a freedom issue is done at the expense of another human being's existence."

"GIVE US THE GRACE... WHEN THE SACREDNESS OF LIFE BEFORE BIRTH IS ATTACKED, TO STAND UP AND PROCLAIM THAT NO ONE EVER HAS THE AUTHORITY TO DESTROY UNBORN LIFE."

"...Let her that procures abortion undergo ten years' penance, whether the embryo were perfectly formed, or not..."

 ... YOU ARE CALLED TO STAND UP FOR LIFE! ... YOU ARE CALLED TO WORK AND PRAY AGAINST ABORTION !

 "She who has intentionally destroyed [the fetus] is subject to the penalty corresponding to a homicide. For us, there is no scrutinizing between the formed and unformed [fetus]; here truly justice is made not only for the unborn but also with reference to the person who is attentive only to himself/herself since so many women generally die for the very reason..."

 "Destruction of the embryo in the mother's womb is a violation of the right to life which God has bestowed on this nascent life. To raise the question whether we are here concerned already with a human being or not is merely to confuse the issue. The simple fact is that God certainly intended to create a human being and that this nascent human being has been deliberately deprived of his life. And that is nothing but murder."

"I've noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born."

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide."

"The real question of today is not when human life begins, but, what is the value of human life?  The abortionist who reassembles the arms and legs of a tiny baby to make sure all its parts have been torn from the mother's body can hardly doubt whether it is a human being. The real question for him and for all of us is whether that tiny human life has a God-given right to be protected by the law--the same right we have."

 Abortion and the Conscience of a Nation - -Ronald Reagan 

"I know the issue is very controversial. But unless and until it can be proven that an unborn child is not a human being, can we justify assuming without proof that it isn't? No one has yet offered such proof; indeed all the evidence is to the contrary. We should rise above bitterness and reproach, and if Americans could come together in a spirit of understanding and helping, then we could find positive solutions to the tragedy of abortion."

President Ronald Reagan, State of the Union address - January 1984

 "What an irony that a society confronted with plastic bags filled with remains of aborted babies should be more concerned about the problem of recycling the plastic"

 "...is it surprising that today we have become so morally blind (for wickedness blinds) that we save the baby whales at great cost, and murder millions of unborn children?"

The Privilege of Being a Woman, pg. 24

"Nothing we do to defend the human person, no matter how small, is ever unfruitful or forgotten. Our actions touch lives and move other hearts in ways we can never fully understand in this world. Don't ever underestimate the beauty and power of the witness you give in your pro-life work."

Politics and the Devil: Living in a World of Unbelief (speech 4/8/11)

"Satan is having a hey day in our midst, because he has managed to remain invisible in the culture of death (abortion), and our laxity has granted him that luxury. Since we are not steeped in the Word of God as we should be, we do not recognize his darkness in our society."

I Thought You Should Know, January 27, 2009 

 "In WW II, the Germans were responsible for fifty million deaths. We say," How awful," and yet in our country we have, for the most part, allowed the party of death and the court system it has procured to eliminate over fifty million fellow citizens without allowing them to even see the light of day. They have done their best to make ours a true culture of death."

Reaping the Whirlwind of Abortion"  The Observer    08/10/06

"As bad as the economy is, as bad as the war is, the destruction of innocent human life, especially in the womb, is a greater evil, and correction of this grave evil must take place. Each of us has a role in making this correction in our duties as citizens." 

"Not even one abortion per week is acceptable. Not one per month. Not one per year. Not one in our lifetime... The dignity of the human person begins at the moment of conception, not at birth. The dignity as recognized by the signers of the Declaration of Independence, is bestowed by the Creator, and no one has the right to destroy innocent unborn life."
