Pope to pharmacists: Do not become accessories to homicide of abortion
VATICAN CITY — All health care professionals have a right to conscientious objection, just as they have a right to denounce unjust harm inflicted on innocent and defenseless life, Pope Francis said.
When it comes to abortion, “I have been very clear — it is homicide and it is not licit to become complicit,” he told a group of pharmacists and other medical professionals.
Something shocking happened on NPR on Friday. NPR Morning Edition host Steve Inskeep interviewed a pro-life activist in Texas, Rebecca Parma of Texas Right to Life. It was less shocking that it was hostile throughout. He tossed questions like “Wasn’t your strategy actually to stop abortions in a way that is unconstitutional at the moment?”
BREAKING: In a 218-211 vote, the Democrat-controlled House just passed the most extreme abortion law in American history.
It would codify the "right" to kill preborn children through all 9 months in all 50 states.

Residents of a First Nations community in Canada, who were deprived of clean drinking water for nearly a quarter of a century, can now drink from their taps after a water treatment facility became fully operational earlier this week.
Shoal Lake 40, a community on the Manitoba-Ontario border, has been under drinking water advisory since 1997.
On Wednesday, residents celebrated the opening of the community’s C$33m (US$26m) water treatment facility.
The child at the center of Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court case that established a woman’s right to abortion, has come forward after decades of secrecy.
Shelley Lynn Thornton, 51, has revealed herself as the youngest daughter born to Norma McCorvey, whose lawsuit under the pseudonym “Jane Roe” led to the Supreme Court’s 1973 ruling that legalized abortion nationally, according to journalist Joshua Prager’s book, “The Family Roe: An American Story.”
I told you it was coming. Back in May, on my show, “Sovereign Nation,” I chronicled significant signs of pro-life progress that were driving death-lobby Democrats mad—and I warned of a wave of intolerant tantrums to come as we hurtle into autumn. It’s here.
Condemnation from Democrats over the Texas abortion law which recently went into effect has been strong and swift. It was very much a theme of the Sunday morning shows.
Midler’s comments came one day after Texas enacted a law that will prevent women from killing their unborn children after their baby’s heartbeat is detected.
Leftists reacted Thursday to the pro-life 5-4 victory the Supreme Court handed down that bans most abortions in Texas after six weeks of pregnancy “while legal challenges to that law proceed in lower courts,”
Liberal activists and progressive media compared Texas’ new pro-life law to the Taliban after it went into effect Wednesday.
“I am calling on Joe Biden and the UN to lead a humanitarian effort to airlift women out of Texas,” tweeted BotSentinel founder Christopher Bouzy. “The North American Taliban has seized control of Texas.”
Public records obtained by the Center for Medical Progress reveal that the University of Pittsburgh sought $3 million in 2015 from the National Institutes of Health to become a “distribution hub” for the GenitoUrinary Development Molecular Anatomy Project. The application stated that Pitt would be the best “distribution hub” for fetal tissue due to their “over 18 years of experience” in collecting body parts from aborted babies.
A group of activists has claimed responsibility for draping a sign reading “God Bless Abortions” on a 60-plus-foot Jesus Christ statue in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, saying the act was a message on abortion legislation.
The Gates’ philanthropy organization has been a huge supporter of contraception and abortion for decades, sending millions of dollars to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood, the Population Council and MSI Reproductive Choices (formerly Marie Stopes International).
Last week, it announced plans to spend another $1.4 billion through 2026 on promoting family planning across the world, according to the Catholic News Agency.
This year’s valedictorian at Lake Highlands High School in Dallas, Texas, has gone viral for her commencement speech, in which she celebrated abortion and attacked her home state for passing a bill to protect unborn children.
Paxton Smith ditched remarks that had been pre-approved by the school and replaced them with a speech criticizing the recently passed heartbeat bill, which allows citizens to sue doctors who knowingly perform an abortion after a fetal heartbeat can be detected.
Pro-choice activists say that state lawmakers across the country are trying to restrict abortion at a pace not seen in decades. So what will this mean for a decades-long fight over the issue in America?
On a Friday night, Julie gets ready to go out with her partner while her two boys curl up on the sofa to watch a Disney movie with their babysitter.
It is a typical happy family scene, one that Julie probably never envisaged when, aged just 19, she was raped and took the decision to have an abortion.
Isn’t she charming?
Someone had sex with this. https://t.co/6hVtR5EWgj
