A video that has recently gone viral on Facebook with over 195,000 shares that depicts a pre-born baby inside of its amniotic sac. The video has sparked massive discussion on social media about the humanity of the unborn, legality of abortion, and reality of what life in the womb looks like. Some commenters on these social media outlets have speculated that the baby was delivered as the result of an auto accident, although we could not confirm this. Read more at LifeNews.com.
Respected Christian leader and author James Dobson makes it clear his pro-family ministry puts the issue of life first and foremost – even if it means shutting down.
Dr. Dobson didn’t hold back Thursday during an interview regarding his organization, Family Talk, and its challenge of a federal mandate for employers to cover abortifacients.
“We are suing [HHS Secretary] Kathleen Sebelius for forcing or trying to force all of us to give abortifacient medications to our employees,” he summarized on American Family Radio, “and I just absolutely refuse to do it. We’ll close down before I’ll do it.”
Several other employers are challenging the mandate, including the for-profit Hobby Lobby.
“Ours is a Christian non-profit,” he explained. “[The government has] exempted churches from having to do this, but they’ve concluded that other Christian non-profits are not ‘Christian enough.'”
Our president just finished his State of the Union address. I watched it live on YouTube. (The live link is gone, but archive links abound.) Many statements were laudable. Some represented some degree of obfuscation and thus were irritating. Sometimes I agreed, while at other times I disagreed strongly. However, one phrase in particular both “stuck out” and especially irritated me. There was nothing terribly wrong with the statement itself. What was wrong was the conflict between the statement and the extreme pro-abortion attitude of the man who issued the statement. He indicated that the best thing we can do for our children is to invest in early education (referring to pre-K schooling).
After his speech, his supporters (who organized the follow-through) invited online viewers to go to a White House-operated website and watch while questions from Twitter and the blogosphere were answered by a panel appointed by the administration. The hashtag (to post a question or participate in the conversation) is: #SOTUchat
So, I fired up my Twitter account, put in the hashtag, and tweeted this:
#SOTUchat Mr Pres. does that investment in early education of children include not ripping them to pieces while inside their mothers’ wombs?
Feel free to copy and paste. If you have a Twitter account, retweet it. If you have a Facebook, a blog, or whatever, use your platform say something for the cause of Life. Regardless, do something, even if it’s just teaching your family in devotions or discussing it with a neighbor or coworker. Do something to participate. Be part of the Pro-Life Generation that will see Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton overturned in our lifetime.

During quite a few of these frozen days of being snowed in, I spent many, many hours editing the video of a major Pro-Life event, at the request of Dr. Wanda Franz, Ph.D., who is the former head of the National Right To Life Committee, and current President of West Virginians For Life, and Mary Anne Buchanan, who is the Program Director for West Virginians For Life. Recently I finished the DVD production phase, and this past Monday I mailed out the DVDs to the WV For Life office. The next phase was to distill the video stream for YouTube. Last night I finished that aspect of this project, and started the upload to YouTube. Early this morning (in the wee hours) the upload to YouTube was finally completed. Behold:
