Life Issues

In Nepal, the country’s gender gap is widening as illegal sex-selective abortions continue to claim the lives of unborn girls.  Abortion was legalized over two decades ago in Nepal, though sex selective abortions remain illegal. Unfortunately, these laws are rarely enforced.  

Cultural preference for sons means many families choose to end pregnancies when the baby is female, leading to far more boys than girls being born. In the last year, nearly 17 percent fewer girls were born than boys, a dramatic imbalance that experts warn could have serious long-term social consequences.  

Abortion is often used just like this to discriminate against the most vulnerable.

A college instructor in La Crosse, Wisconsin, has been charged with double homicide for allegedly killing his pregnant mistress and their unborn child after she refused to have an abortion. Authorities say 27-year-old Alexis Pickett and her unborn baby were found dead in her home.  

The suspect allegedly became angry when Pickett chose life and refused to end the pregnancy, saying he did not want another child. Prosecutors have charged him with first-degree intentional homicide of both Pickett and their unborn child.  

While we are glad to see the second homicide charge and some level of justice for the baby, why is it homicide to kill this child in the womb but not the hundreds of thousands of babies killed via abortion each year? 

A disturbing case out of Florida exposes the dark underbelly of abortion: a man named Moses Lopez allegedly lied about his age, claiming he was 16 when he was really 23, to groom and sexually abuse a 14-year-old girl for years. 

When she became pregnant, he pressured her into an abortion, not out of concern, but to erase the evidence of his crimes and silence his victim. 

Tragically, this isn’t rare. Sexual predators frequently coerce abortions to cover their tracks, taking innocent lives, and further traumatizing young girls. Abortion doesn’t empower women; it enables abusers. 

Every unborn child and every victimized mother deserve protection 

A woman named Sierra changed her mind in the middle of a chemical abortion and saved her baby’s life. After taking the first abortion pill, which blocks the hormone needed to sustain pregnancy, Sierra walked away overwhelmed with regret and despair. In tears, she prayed for help, and in the abortion facility parking lot she noticed a sign directing her to the Abortion Pill Rescue Network.

Sierra was connected to compassionate support, received an ultrasound showing her baby’s strong heartbeat, and began Abortion Pill Reversal treatment, a progesterone-based medical option that can counteract the effects of the first pill.

Months later, Sierra welcomed her daughter Sawyer healthy, thriving, and deeply loved.

Sierra’s story is one of the more than 7000 cases of abortion pill reversal saving unborn babies.

New UK government data has revealed a shocking truth: at least 400 baby girls may have been aborted simply because of their gender between 2017 and 2021 — a practice known as sex-selective abortion. These deaths were uncovered through government birth-ratio statistics showing that far more boys than girls were born in some communities, an imbalance experts believe is linked to killing of unborn girls.  

Even though sex-selective abortion is supposed to be illegal in England the UK’s largest abortion provider has been caught telling women it’s not unlawful.  

Often we hear abortion advocates claim that any reason for an abortion is a valid reason, but killing an unborn baby girl because you would have preferred a boy is hardly just.

Not long ago I told you about a pro-abortion book targeting young children. Now there is another book, this time specifically targeting teenagers and promoting abortion. 

The novel titled “Truth Is”, follows a 17-year-old protagonist who chooses abortion, an outcome the author portrays positively and is intentionally designed to be “pro-abortion” literature for young people. The author says she wrote the book as a direct response to the end of Roe v. Wade and hopes it will serve as a resource to influence teens toward abortion.  

The book is now a National Book Awards finalist. Abortion takes human life. It does not offer a better life. It is horrific for teenagers to be given this kind of deadly propaganda at a time when they are most impressionable. 

A disturbing case out of Florida highlights how the dangerous logic of “assisted suicide” can lead to tragedy. A 66-year-old daughter, Martha Jo Blake, has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 97-year-old mother, Patricia Blake. Deputies found the elderly woman dead in her bed, and the medical examiner ruled her death a homicide, citing injuries consistent with suffocation and strangulation, not natural causes.

The woman told police her mother “wanted to die” and had discussed assisted suicide with a physician in Maine.

As horrible as this story is, think of all the cases where there are no charges and no scandal because the killing is state sanctioned. Murder is never mercy, even if it is given a name like assisted suicide, medical aid in dying, or death with dignity.

Once again the truth is upsetting the pro‑abortion narrative: serious studies show the abortion pill known as mifepristone is not as safe as advertised. With the abortion pill now used in over 60 % of U.S. abortions, independent analysis finds that real‑world complications such as heavy bleeding, infection, and other serious events occur far more often than the industry claims.

Pro‑abortion activists are furious that these findings challenge their talking points and that the truth about the risks to women is being exposed. They once again call it “junk science” but it is real life data.

This isn’t just a medical debate, it’s a moral crisis. Abortion pill use ends the life of an unborn child, and can harm women too.

A former pro-abortion journalist, trained up in the idea that abortion was “good for women,” changed her mind instantly after witnessing an abortion procedure firsthand. What she saw, the anguish of a mother and father, grieving the loss of their child, shattered the myth that abortion is a solution and opened her eyes to the reality that abortion kills an innocent child

This conversion didn’t come from slogans or politics, it came from seeing the truth of what abortion does. When people become educated on the dark reality of abortion, their hearts change.

Let’s continue to speak truth, share life-affirming stories, and stand for the unborn and for women who deserve real help, not death..

Every life matters from conception on.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced she will sign a bill legalizing assisted suicide. This legislation would allow doctors to help patients end their lives rather than offering real care and compassion.

While proponents claim this is about “dignity,” we know it sends a dangerous message that some lives are less valuable and can be legally ended. This law abandons our most vulnerable and undermines efforts to prevent suicide.

A society that protects the unborn yet promotes assisted death is morally inconsistent. We should champion palliative care, dignity, and true mercy, not a culture that accepts killing as a solution. Let’s stand for life at every stage, from conception to natural death.
