Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Professor John Sparks
with Grove City College (www.gcc.edu)

Title: Part 3 of 3 - How We Got to Roe v Wade
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Professor John Sparks
with Grove City College (www.gcc.edu)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why did Justice Black state that the privacy that Douglas claimed to uncover was a broad, abstract, ambiguous concept? Do other legal scholars agree with him? Dr. Sparks uses several examples to explain why Douglas’ thoughts are so dangerous.

Justice Black also bluntly stated that the “use of any such broad, unbounded judicial authority would make of this court’s members a day-to-day constitutional convention”. What does this mean?

Do most law schools teach aspiring law students that Roe v. Wade is the law of the land and should not be overturned, because there is a right to privacy found in the US Constitution? Dr. Sparks reveals that, unfortunately, it would be extremely difficult to find a law professor today that doesn’t teach that abortion falls under the “right to privacy”.

Title: The NY Abortion Law is Simply Not Necessary
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brittany Raymer
with Focus on the Family www.Family.org

The baby's heart starts to beat at around 6 weeks. Published scientific literature shows that unborn babies can experience pain around 20 weeks. Most doctors define the age of viability at about 24 weeks.

Yet the State of New York passed a state law allowing the mother and the abortionist to kill the baby up until the moment of live birth.

Brittany Raymer is the Life Issues Analyst at Focus on the Family. She recently wrote: “Despite the obviously callous nature of this bill, the passing of this horrific piece of legislation isn’t a surprise. Radical elements in New York politics have wanted to pass this measure for years.”

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Are there any sane, pro-life office holders in the New York State Legislature?

Is this evil disrespect for life spreading to other states?

If Democrats win control of the US Senate and the Presidency in 2020, will the killing of babies up to the moment of live birth be one of their top priorities?

What can pro-lifers do to help save more babies?

Title: Do You Pray for Abortion Workers?
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

As Christians, it is all-too-easy to find ourselves dehumanizing abortion workers. Instead, however, we should be praying for them.

Brad Mattes, President of Life Issues, offers us some encouragement through Scripture today.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why should we pray for abortion workers?

Are abortion workers children of God, too? 2 Peter 3:9 “The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.”

What can you do to help abortion workers? Matthew 9:37-38 “Then he said to his disciples, 'The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.'”

Brad closes the segment in prayer for abortion workers…

On March 26,  we had Cathy Ruse with the Family Research Council on to discuss a disturbing situation in California regarding free speech rights for pro-life pregnancy centers.

Today, Brad Mattes, President of Life Issues, is here to give an update on this case, National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

The California legislature recently passed a law requiring pro-life pregnancy centers to promote/advertise for/and give advice about abortions to their clients.

Is this called “compelled speech” – speech which the government dictates what you can say, when to say it, and how to say it? Listen as Brad says this is not just “compelled speech”, but it is “forced speech”.

Were some of the Supreme Court Justices concerned over the California law?

Compare this to the government requiring all car dealerships inform their customers of the “deals” down the street…

In a similar fashion to the California law, the City of Austin tried to force pro-life crisis pregnancy centers to advertise for abortion clinics. How did the 5th Circuit Court in New Orleans rule on the Austin case?

Brad encourages listeners to pray for the Supreme Court Justices as they deliberate this case. They are expected to issue a ruling in June 2018.

Title: The Supreme Court, Free Speech, and Abortion
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Cathy Cleaver Ruse
with Family Research Council (www.FRC.org)

Part 1 of 2

Recently the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a pivotal free speech case: National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra.

Bottom line: Should pro-life pregnancy centers be forced to advertise and refer clients to abortion providers?

Cathy Cleaver Ruse is a Senior Fellow of Legal Studies with the Family Research Council. She was in the court chamber during oral arguments on this case. Today she reveals the details of that hearing.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What was it like being in the courtroom during oral arguments for the case: National Institute of Family and Life Advocates v. Becerra?

Does the First Amendment protect both the right to speak and the right not to speak?

Should pro-life crisis pregnancy centers be forced to advertise and refer clients to abortion facilities?

Is this comparable to McDonald’s being forced to advertise for Wendy’s?

Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Cathy Cleaver Ruse
with Family Research Council (www.FRC.org)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Is the United States one of the only a few countries which allows abortion up to the moment before birth? Is our abortion rate one of the highest in the world as well?

Should all Americans be free to live out their faith without fear of punishment?

Must we do everything humanly and spiritually possible to protect pro-life pregnancy centers from being forced by the government to advertise for abortion?

Title: End the Lies Campaign
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Jay Hobbs
with Pregnancy Help News (www.pregnancyhelpnews.com)

Part 1 of 2

The nation’s top abortion supremacy group, NARAL Pro-Choice America, has launched a new campaign, “End the Lies”, along with a website dedicated to slandering life-saving pregnancy centers and ultrasound-equipped medical clinics.

Jay Hobbs is the Editor in Chief of Pregnancy Help News. He has also been on staff at Heartbeat International since 2012, currently serving as the Director of Communications and Marketing.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What is the “End the Lies” campaign?

Is this new campaign a treasure trove of unfounded claims and senseless vitriol NARAL has conjured up over the past two decades?

Example: A women is in the midst of an unplanned pregnancy. She Googles “pregnancy help” and a nearby pro-life pregnancy center is the first to pop up on her screen. Why does NARAL view this as offensive and bad?

Have abortion advocates ever presented testimony from clients of a pro-life crisis pregnancy center showing how the client was harmed?

Do ALL women who visit a crisis pregnancy center choose life? Do they still report that they had a good experience even if they choose abortion?

Title: Part 2 of 2 - End the Lies Campaign
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Jay Hobbs
with Pregnancy Help News (www.pregnancyhelpnews.com)

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Not only do thousands of women testify to the life-saving power of pregnancy centers, but thousands more testify to the unspeakable pain and regret of abortion and the horrible conditions inside an abortion mill.

NARAL believes the above statement is harmful to women. Why?

Are women who say they “enjoyed” their abortion lying?

Why do some Judges believe the lies from NARAL, Planned Parenthood, and other pro-abortion activists?

Listen as Jay Hobbs explains a law that the Supreme Court of California will be voting on March 20th and how it could affect pro-life pregnancy centers nationwide.

Title: Is Abortion Ever “Good”?
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Judie Brown
with American Life League (www.all.org)

Former MTV reporter Becky Griffin recently tweeted her way into my stratosphere when she tweeted: "Woman puts baby up for adoption, he grows up to be a violent young man who will spend the rest of his life in prison for a mass murder. Tell me more about how abortions are wrong. #Florida #ParklandSchoolShooting."

Is abortion ever “good”? Is it ever “better”? American Life League President Judie Brown responds: “NO!”

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Is Becky Grffin’s logic sick and twisted?

On the day of the Parkland, Florida high school shooting, more than 2,500 babies were silently murdered by abortion. Why does one act of violence outweigh the other?

Are too many Christians numb to the fact that abortion is a violent sin against God?

Our children are becoming accustomed to violent video games, TV shows, song lyrics, and even commercial. Many Christian teens think that pornography is normal and okay, but think littering is horrible! Where did we go wrong?

GOOD NEWS: Are more young people pro-life?

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

Graphic imagery was key to ending slavery, Nazi concentration camps, and the Vietnam War. The images caused people to see the truth and put an end to the atrocities.

Brad Mattes, with Life Issues, has some disturbing news coming out of Australia today. We in America should pay close attention to ensure these lies do not come to our shores.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

WHAT’S UP with the Victoria, Australia State Supreme Court?

What did the Court decide about using the images of dead babies to spread the truth about abortion?

What did the Court call the images? Were they right?

Do graphic images actually help spread the truth about evil in this world?

In Victoria, Australia, are pro-life organizations and activists permitted to use a picture of an aborted baby when talking about abortion? What forms of communication are prohibited and which are allowed?

Could this new law also affect organizations outside of Australia?

How many babies are now being murdered each day in America through abortion?

How can we in America help turn the tide against abortion?

Title: Ridiculous Arguments from Pro-Choice People
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Jay Hobbs
with Pregnancy Help News (www.pregnancyhelpnews.com)

Thankfully, many people are beginning to see the truth about abortion and are now advocating for more help for those considering abortion.  However, there are still those who believe abortion is the only answer. In fact, the sad reality is they actually celebrate abortion.

Today, Joy Hobbs, with Pregnancy Help News,  will reveal the three most outrageous claims the left has made in recent weeks concerning abortion.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Do those saying abortion is acceptable truly believe their claims? Do their statements add up?

Do pro-choicers dislike the term “unborn baby”?  Listen as Jay Hobbs reads directly from a Salt Lake Tribune article regarding statements a Utah Senator made.

What are they now calling unborn babies?

Do pro-choicers believe women deserve informed consent and ultrasounds before they have an abortion?

The pro-choice crowd lobbies relentlessly against Choose Life license plates. But, now, in California, they want a Pro-Choice license plate! What’s the difference?

Discussed by Briscoe Cain
with Briscoe Cain (www.briscoecain.com)

Is it possible to ban all abortions in Texas?  Who know what the future holds? Briscoe Cain, the new State Representative for Texas District 128, fully supports HB948, relating to prohibiting abortion and recognizing the rights, powers, and privileges of all unborn children at every stage of gestation from fertilization until birth; affecting criminal offenses and penalties.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Are Christian Conservatives currently the majority in Austin?

If – and when – the Supreme Court overturns Roe v Wade, would all abortions automatically be banned in Texas?

Why does Texas need to pass a law NOW banning all abortions should the Supreme Court overturn Roe v Wade?

Listen in as Representative Cain discusses more details about HB948. “We need to dare the Federal Government to tell us to stop,” he boldly states.

Title: Abortion Around the World
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

In 1920, the former Soviet Union became the first country in the world to legalize abortion. Abortions now occur legally in 136 nations. The 60 nations still prohibiting abortion face relentless international pressure to permit abortion without restriction. We now have nearly a century of evidence documenting what happens when governments authorize abortion: it does not become rare, but increases exponentially.

President of Life Issues, Brad Mattes, has more information to share today about the fate of abortion across the world.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Is a country’s future found in its babies?

Does Russia have a horrible record when it comes to the unborn? Shocking Fact: 70% of all pregnancies in Russia end in abortion. How does this compare to America?

Is Russia now worried about their future as their population decreases due to the amount of abortions it is experiencing? Brad reveals several unconventional methods the Russian government has experimented with in an attempt to increase their population.

In one region of Russia, the Russian Orthodox Church and local health officials are promoting one abortion-free day each year. Listen as Brad Mattes explains what this is and why he thinks we should do the same in the United States.

Would you participate and promote an “Abortion Free Day” in America? Send us your comments.

Discussed by Arina Grossu
with Family Research Council (www.FRC.org)

The Global Life Campaign's Abortion Worldwide Report is the first to systematically track reported abortions in 100 nations and territories from 1920 through 2015. This report contains 4,915 country years of data, major findings, and country abortion graphs showing the impact of authorization, world maps, and a policy table for 196 nations.

Arina Grossu, the Director of the Center for Human Dignity at the Family Research Council, was one of the experts to review the Global Life Campaign's Abortion Worldwide Report. 

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Approximately how many babies worldwide have been murdered through abortion? FACT: More human life has been destroyed through abortion than all the combined wars in history.

Abortions were first legalized in 1920 in Russia. How many pregnancies end in abortion today in Russia?

What three countries perform the most abortions? Hint: The United States is Number Three.

Do more abortions occur in countries which have a Judeo-Christian worldview or a communist/atheist rule?

Listen as Arina Grossu reviews more of the information from the Global Life Campaign's Abortion Worldwide Report.

Should our Elected Officials authorize an “Abortion Free Day in America”? Arina has a better idea! And I like hers much better!

Title: Truth and Freedom are Under Attack in America
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Judie Brown
with American Life League (www.all.org)

Though many say that abortion is a right, we all know that it truly is an act of murder which takes the life of an innocent child. Some in the political arena have relegated the act of abortion to a mere “political issue.” That alone dehumanizes babies and insults the Creator of all things, including unborn babies.

Judie Brown, with the American Life League, states, “This will not stop until we stop it.”

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Has the left really relegated abortion to a political issue?

Does the American public need a wake-up call? “Our [current] laws are not of God, they are of man,” Judie says. “If we do not stand up and say no to this, who will?”

Are we all like the watchman mentioned in Ezekiel in this deadly age of moral depravity? Listen in as Judie gives encouragement to those who may be afraid to speak up for fear of not knowing what to say.

Did we start winning the minds and hearts of the young people in American with the “silent scream”?

Editor’s Note: Have you ever considered buying several pro-life t-shirts to wear on occasion? Or maybe putting a pro-life bumper sticker on your car? You may be surprised at just how effective they can be!

Discussed by Jay Hobbs

Illinois Governor, Republican Bruce Rauner, has done the unthinkable. He recently signed into law a bill that was pushed by Democrats! And, no, it was not a “good” bill.

Jay Hobbs, with Pregnancy Help News, will be discussing HB1564 and all the dirty little tricks which the Dems slipped into the bill.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

In Illinois, what is the new state-preferred choice for women in unexpected pregnancies?

The new Illinois law (effective Jan. 1, 2017) requires – and forces – medical professionals in all capacities, including Crisis Pregnancy Centers, to go against their deeply held religious conscience by referring patients for abortions and counseling patients on what the legislation calls the “benefits” of abortion.

Read that again, friends. All medical professionals must refer women to a local abortion clinic and outline to the patient the “benefits” of abortion.

What does science tell the observer about the significance of uniting a sperm cell with the egg cell within a female human?

Title: America is in Second Place
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

Which do you believe:

“It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish.” Or…

“It is better to let half of the people die so that the other half can eat their fill.”

It is a sad reality that some people, including Christians, are tired of paying for “welfare babies” and wish they had been aborted so they (taxpayers) wouldn’t be financially responsible for their upcoming. To those people, I say, “Shame on you!”

Brad Mattes is there today to reveal some startling statistics about death. It’s not surprising that China greatly surpasses all other countries when it comes to the death toll of its citizens (not including war). “Since China began their cruel and brutal one-child policy, they estimate that 336 million babies have died on the altar,” Brad says. “It’s like wiping out an entire country.” This number does not even include the astonishing amount of baby girls who were born and then left for dead on the streets – simply because they were born the wrong sex.

Sadly, America is second on the list of countries which kills its own citizens. Friends, this is not a time to boast about coming in second place. We should be on the bottom – far behind every other country in the world. Since 1973, Americans have murdered roughly 57 million babies – more than the entire populations of New York and California combined.

What kind of long-term economic impact does abortion have on a country? Brad says, “Think of all those American citizens who were executed in the womb that will not be paying taxes – not paying into Social Security – not buying houses or cars.” This even affects teachers! There will be far fewer children to teach ten or twenty years from now due to abortion!

There is hope on the horizon, however! The pro-death side (those who push abortion) is desperately seeking more young people for their cause, but more and more millennials are pro-life! They are realizing the truth about abortion and want no part of the hideous reality of voluntary death. “They are not drinking the Kool-Aid,” Brad says.

PS Mother Teresa said the first quote above and Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong said the other.

Discussed by Mark Tooley
with Institute on Religion and Democracy www.theIRD.org

If you haven’t heard the latest news about abortion supporters, you are in for a shock. If you have, Mark Tooley President of the Institute on Religion and Democracy, sets the record straight about what United Methodist and Episcopalian female clergy said and prayed in front an Ohio Planned Parenthood.

Do these female clergy condemn Islamists who rape young girls and boys? Do they condemn the sexual enslavement of millions of women? Do they condemn the murder of innocent men, women, and children around the world? Do they condemn Islamists who throw homosexuals off rooftops for simply being gay? No! They are silent! They don’t want to get their hands dirty. They don’t want to offend the Muslims, but it is perfectly acceptable to offend Protestants and Catholics who oppose abortion.

Mark Tooley says Reverend Laura Young truly believes that pro-life protestors have a “misguided faith”. In fact, Mark says this about the issue: “The major threat to their freedom is Christians in America. From her (Reverend Young) perspective, she sees abortion clinics as guardians of the sexual revolution.”

Mark further laments that Reverend Young and others are throwing out the common stereotype that pro-life supporters are against women. This cannot be further from the truth! The majority of pro-life supporters are women themselves. Crisis pregnancy centers exist to help women and their children. They even offer support for men who do not wish to terminate their partner’s pregnancy! If you need healing or want more information, google “crisis pregnancy centers” in your area.

Title: The Link Between Abortion and Premature Birth
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

“A truthful witness saves lives, but a false witness is deceitful,” said King Solomon in Proverbs 14:25.

From the moment a woman walks into an abortion clinic, she is lied to. She is told her baby doesn’t matter because it cannot live without her. She is told there are minimal health risks. She is told she will bounce back just fine in no time. She is told that there is no risk to future pregnancies should she wish to start a family. She is not told her baby has fingers and toes and a heartbeat. She is not told of the many severe complications that can occur after an abortion. She is not told about the post-traumatic stress she will endure, for some women daily for the rest of their lives. She is not told of the risk of giving birth prematurely to a future baby or to a baby who is stillborn. She is not told of the higher risk to breast cancer. She is lied to so Planned Parenthood can make more money. Period.

Brad Mattes, President of Life Issues, is here today to discuss the unfortunate link  between premature birth rates and women who have previously had an abortion. Planned Parenthood is absolutely denying this link. Brad says their approach is “Lie and Deny”. Abortionists and workers at Planned Parenthood believe their mission is sacred. “They are making blood money,” Brad believes.

There have been over 100 independent studies all across the world which all give testimony to the fact that abortion does, in fact, affect future pregnancies in many capacities. There are even studies dating back to 1957 which link abortion to higher risks of breast cancer. “Many premature births, stillbirths, and pregnancy complications could be avoided if women are just told the truth,” Brad admonishes.

Please encourage all young women to visit a pro-life pregnancy clinic if they find themselves in a situation where they are considering abortion. Offer to take them to an appointment. Offer to help find them a job if needed. Offer shelter if they have nowhere to go. If you or someone you know has had an abortion, Brad urges you to get help or help someone else. Don’t live alone with the silent pain. There is help, hope, and healing in the arms of Jesus.

Part 1 of 2

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

The book of Revelation talks about people who were martyred crying out in the throne room. Are the 60+ Million aborted babies in heaven crying out, too? Do they wonder “Why me?” Is Jesus comforting them as they sit at his feet?

As a Christian physician, Dr. Vliet’s heart just aches for those innocent babies who have been murdered for convenience. As new videos are being released weekly by the Center for Medical Progress,  she prays more and more people will begin to see the truth about abortion. Dr. Vliet is overcome with sadness for the doctors who perform abortions every day so callously. She weeps for the babies who have lost their lives due to someone’s selfishness.

Listen in as she discusses how a powerful poem she wrote is now a song “We Belong to Him”.

If you have had an abortion or know someone who has, please know that no one at the What’s UP Radio Program judges you or thinks less of you. We love you and want you to know that there is hope and help through the blood of Jesus Christ. Dr. Elizabeth Lee Vliet agrees with us in that statement.

Title: Texas Medical Board Gives Abortion Doctor a Slap on the Wrist
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Dr. Joe Pojman
with Texas Alliance for Life (www.TexasAllianceForLife.org)

In April 2014, Texas Alliance for Life (TAL) staff attorney Erin Groff filed a complaint with the Texas Medical Board (TMB) against Houston abortionist Dr. Bernard Rosenfeld, who was performing abortions illegally out of his private medical office in Houston. The complaint alleged that Dr. Rosenfeld was performing about two abortions every other day in his office, well above the 50 per year threshold requiring abortion facility licensure according to state law. The TMB opened an investigation, and in October Ms. Groff provided testimony.

Dr. Joe Pojman, the Executive Director of TAL, is ecstatic that the TMB ruled in February of 2015 that Dr. Rosenfeld violated the Texas abortion facility licensing law. However, while the TMB could have denied, suspended, or revoked his license, they chose to merely issue a remedial plan that has two requirements: eight additional hours of continuing medical education and a payment of $500 per year for administering the plan.

Listen in as Dr. Pojman gives the facts about the case and why Texas should have more laws regarding abortionists and their clinics. “We are definitely heading in the right direction, but there is still a lot of work to do,” he says. There are several bills that have already been introduced concerning abortion laws and regulations of abortion clinics, and Dr. Pojman discusses these, as well.

Title: They're Getting Desperate
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

A lie is a lie is a lie. Abortion supporters have had the best wordsmiths for decades. They have convinced millions of women that abortion is safe, legal, and rare. Now that America has surpassed the 60 million abortion mark, abortion supporters have a new tactic.

No one would ever put this bumper sticker on their car: “I love abortion”. No one in the abortion industry would ever say “We’re in favor of killing babies”. NO. They are smarter than that. But not as smart as they think.

Brad Mattes says that abortion supporters know they are losing the battle. They know that more and more women are seeing abortion for what it really is: murder. They are getting desperate. Their newest campaign is to convince people that women who have an abortion are doing a “social good”. They call it “reproductive justice”. They say that abortion “saves lives, improves lives, and makes for a stronger society”.

After pro-life supporters coined the phrase “Love them both” and were successful in passing the Sonogram bill, more women started choosing life for their babies. Women are now rejecting Planned Parenthood’s “abortion-on-demand-no-apologies” claim that abortion empowers women. Too many women have been scarred, physically and emotionally, from abortion. They now know the truth and are willingly fighting save other women from the agony they face daily.

Title: Texas Democrats Denounce 5th Circuit Ruling on HB2
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Dr. Joe Pojman
with Texas Alliance for Life (www.TexasAllianceForLife.org)

Part 1 of 3

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting to little ears.
 
The Democrats blame “mad white men” for the recent ruling of a Louisiana appellate court to uphold HB2 in Texas. Dr. Joe Pojman, with the Texas Alliance for Alliance, discusses an email sent by Democrat leaders about the ruling.

Lisa Paul, the Deputy Communications Director for the Texas Democrat Party, said in an email that women will suffer from this “restrictive, unconstitutional law”. They claim that Republicans are forcing women’s health clinics to close and are denying women the right to choose. They say that closing clinics reduces women’s access to prenatal care, cancer screenings, mammograms, and annual wellness visits. And, finally, they assert that HB2 is an assault on women, dragging women by their hair back to the “mad men era”.

One of the left’s biggest arguments with HB2 is the provision requiring abortion doctors have hospital privileges. If you were having an out-patient surgical procedure in your physician’s office, you would want that doctor to have visiting privileges at a nearby hospital. You wouldn’t allow your child to be operated on in an out-patient clinic if their physician wasn’t allowed in the nearest hospital! Why should it be any different for abortion doctors?

Even former President Bill Clinton said he thinks abortion should be safe and rare! Come on, Dems! Get with the program! Too many women are scarred for their life, both physically and emotionally, from abortion. Some even die! We cannot allow this to continue. We’re not pushing women back to the Stone Age. HB2 cleans up dirty clinics, and causes some to close by their choice not wanting to come up to standards, Why do liberal women (and men) oppose safe abortions?

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting to little ears.

Pro-life advocates are not the only people who have witnessed unsanitary conditions in many women’s health clinics, aka abortion facilities. Even the Department of Health has documentation of horrific unhygienic environments. They also noted many facilities did not have up-to-code rooms or hallways large enough to accommodate patients safely or in an emergency situation.

What I find most disturbing are the clinics where nurses and other aides aren’t trained properly on how to clean surgical instruments – even using the same tools on more than one patient without being sterilized! There are cases where the DOH has fined the same clinic on more than once occasion for these violations. No! Just…NO! This is not acceptable.

Bringing abortion clinics up to the required “standard of care” is just a no-brainer. Other ambulatory facilities must meet these standards. Abortion clinics should be required to meet them as well. I will say it again… This is the opposite of the war on women. So far opposite. We are trying to save more women, not kill them or ruin their lives.

Title: Why did Wendy Davis have Two Abortions?
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Emily Horne
with Texas Right to Life www.TexasRightToLife.com

DISCLAIMER: Issues discussed during this segment might be inappropriate for young children. Please use caution when listening to this segment in the presence of children.

Wendy Davis, the Texas Democrat Gubernatorial candidate, has had two abortions. In her new campaign memoire, Davis explains the abortions were performed for medical reasons. Emily Horne, with the Texas Right to Life, says Wendy Davis may just be trying to win sympathy from a certain type of voter who might not otherwise vote for her.

If you recall, Wendy Davis lead the famous filibuster during the summer of 2013 against the pro-life bill, HB-2. She stood on her feet for nearly thirteen hours with the intent of slamming down regulations that make it safer for women to have abortions. The bill had nothing to do with the types of abortions she had. Some people are even claiming that Wendy would not have been able to have her abortions if this bill had been law in the 1990’s when her abortions were performed. This is absolutely not the case.

Emily Horne describes Wendy Davis’s abortions in a little more detail, explaining that one of Wendy’s pregnancies was life-threating to her, which most pro-life organizations actually see as an acceptable “excuse” for an abortion. The other abortion Wendy had was not life-threatening to her.

Listen in as Emily discusses this.

Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

Part 1 of 2

Pro-choice advocates are right. The Bible never specifically mentions abortion and whether it is right or wrong.

So, why do pro-life supporters say that abortion is wrong? Well, for one, it is a commandment: “Thou shalt not kill”. Also, God says that He knew you in your mother’s womb.

Many argue that you aren’t a “human” until you are born. I counter-act them with: “But a baby cannot survive the first year without the love, nourishment, and care from a mother or father. Should we be allowed to kill an infant at any time because they are an inconvenience?”

If you're wondering what Senate Democrats decided to give moms for Mother's Day, think dirty, unregulated abortion clinics. While Conservatives fight to give women more protection, liberals are trying to send states back to the dark ages of health care.

Their latest attempt, the "Women's Health Protection Act," would sweep away virtually every state and local limit on abortion and clinic standards. For the extreme Left, Sen.

Title: What is happening to all the abortionists?
Topic: Abortion

Discussed by Brad Mattes
with Life Issues Institute (LifeIssues.org)

Part 1 of 3

LISTENER WARNING: Some information shared in this segment might upset some people, especially young children.

The downward trend of dwindling abortionists is a “problem” that’s plagued the abortion industry for decades. In my eyes, fewer abortionists means more lives spared, Hallelujah!

Following Roe v. Wade, the number of abortionists in America rose, ultimately peaking at an all-time high of 2,908 in 1982. The most recent statistics from the Guttmacher Institute (originally founded as the research arm of Planned Parenthood) show that the number of abortionists has since dropped by over 40% to just 1,720 in 2011.

Abortionists who were trained during the peak of abortion rights in the seventies are now retiring. And their younger successors are few. In a 2011 paper published by Debra Stulberg, a researcher at the University of Chicago, found that only 14% of OB-GYNs are performing abortions. Should we praise God for the “Graying Process”?

Brad Mattes shares a medical student’s personal encounter with an abortion in this segment. The student described the procedure as “crude.” He graphically described the sound of the vacuum machine as it filled with blood, tissue, and tiny organs. Then the machine’s motor came to a sudden stop. The tube was removed and the baby’s body and head followed.

His admission was powerful: “I’ve not been able to think of anything besides what that baby boy might have been. I have been tortured by these images… and I was just a spectator. Never again will I be pro-choice, and never again will I support the murder of any human being, no matter what their stage in life.”

LISTENER WARNING: Some information shared in this segment might upset some people, especially young children.

Because of conscience laws, hospitals cannot legally force nursing students to take part in abortions. Brad had the opportunity to meet five of nurses who courageously advocated for their rights and did so to help protect unborn life. They serve as an encouragement to others in the medical field so that their pro-life beliefs are protected.

Brad encourages you to continue to pray for the physicians and nurses who have chosen to perform and assist in abortions. Pray that their hearts will be softened and they will see these precious souls as babies and not just blobs of tissue. Pray for side-walk counselors who encounter abortion-minded women on a daily basis. Pray for the young girls and women who are in the midst of a crisis pregnancy and feel their only solution – their only hope – is an abortion.

Abortion is the most common invasive surgical procedure performed solely on women in Texas. Since the “procedure” is done every day, one would assume that a high standard of care would be implemented and followed at every clinic. But this could be farther from the truth.

Never has it been more crucial and critical for Christians and pro-lifers to be more involved than now. The future of our country is danger as thousands of babies are being aborted every day.

But, if you look at the here and now, it is vitally important that the facilities provide a clean, safe environment for women who wish to choose an abortion. HB 2816 would require abortion clinics have a sterile suite with a back-up generator and a clean air system.
