The Frightening Formulas of the Filistine Farmacy Factories
Topic: Outrageous

I'm sure to win no awards in a spelling bee, but you probably get the idea. The following reveals An American Tragedy of heartbreaking proportions.

My feisty little 81 year old mother thinks nothing of taking whatever pills her doctor prescribes, but is driven to extreme anxiety when I take a handful of natural supplements.

Someone else, quite a bit younger, in my personal realm was prescribed a modern miracle drug for her high blood pressure. Within two weeks she suffered massive heart failure. The doctors could find no reason whatsoever for the event. No heart abnormality, no clogged arteries, nothing. So of course they implanted a device which will send an electric shock to her heart if it skips a beat and will send a large jolt if it stops altogether. Then because of her body trying to reject the intrusion, they prescribed pills to counteract that reaction. Now she finds herself pregnant (an event in any other circumstance which would lead to joy and thanksgiving), but because of the side effects of the drug she is taking to trick her body into accepting the invasive device (strong chance of causing deformaties in fetuses) and the fact that she has a history of heart problems (which only began after taking the prescribed medicine for high blood pressure) she has been encouraged by her physician to abort the baby since it is almost sure to have abnormalities and carrying a baby to term would be life-threatening under her circumstances (ie, her "bad" heart).

Heaven save us from modern medicine! No thanks. I'll just keep on smelling like a clove of garlic, burping up fish oil, excercising, listening to soothing music and crossing my fingers.

"Knock on wood."

ATROCITY MONSTROSITY
Topic: Pro-Life Poet

Abortion on demand is an atrocity,
I say this with no animosity,
Just stating a fact,
It's a hideous act,
A legally sanctioned monstrosity.

IT MATTERS
Topic: Politickles



CHOICE POSITION

Don't be fooled by the "pro-choice" ruse
That amoralists use to confuse,
For your choices could
Be bad or good
And it matters how you choose.

Why I Rode 35 Hours Squished in a Greyhound Bus with a Total Stranger Grinding hisTeeth, Asleep on My Shoulder
Topic: Musings

Journey taken to be a Washington state delegate to a political convention to support the man who said this:

"RU-486, in my judgment, is a human pesticide. It is anti-child. It is anti-woman. It is anti-family. It basically is a drug which only a nation would accept which has embraced, I believe, the culture of death that the pope and others have condemned..."

"Today, our government certified the culture of death in an easy to swallow tablet. No moral country should ever make killing a child as casual as curing a headache, but the FDA’s approval of RU-486 turns a new page in America’s national tragedy. Millions more will perish, and their blood will stain our nation’s soul. This decision is an affront to all that is right in America and an abomination before the God who authored these unborn lives. RU-486 is an abomination before God."

ABORTION FREE AMERICA
Topic: Pro-Life Clippings

Statement made during the 2004 presidential campaign:

...I am 100% pro-life, all nine months, no exceptions. In fact, I am so pro-life, that if elected I promise that abortion will end my first day in office.

As President, I would advocate a total ban on all abortions and a total ban on any federal funding of abortions, here or abroad.

As President, I would do everything in my power to end the national disgrace of abortion, starting with a formal acknowledgment of the legal person-hood of every child from the moment of conception. I would appoint U.S. Attorneys – by recess appointment if necessary – who will secure the right to life of the unborn.

It is, by the way, within the power of the President to end legal abortion tomorrow, as I would do my first day in office. Don't let alleged "pro-life" Presidents tell you differently. The President has an obligation under Article IV, ?4 to ensure to each member State that it will be republican in form of government. Any action that is not republican in form will be utterly resisted to the grave if necessary under a Peroutka Presidency. Abortion was made "legal" (more correctly, the prosecution of abortion was made illegal) in these United States by judicial fiat, which is anti-republican in form and in violation of the Separation of Powers and Article I, ?1 of the Constitution vesting all legislative power of the Federal Government in the Congress. In an American form of government, "all laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null and void." Marbury v. Madison. Most certainly, anti-Constitutional court decisions are not binding.

Thus, under my presidency, Roe v. Wade will not be enforced, and the member states of the Union could again open their criminal codes and begin the prosecution of the doctors and parents who would contract for the murder of an unborn child without fear of reprisal from the Chief Executive.


For God, Family and the Republic,

Michael A. Peroutka

The Frustration of Fickle Filters
Topic: Pro-Life Poet

THE FRUSTRATION OF FICKLE FILTERS

When blogging a subject as morose as a tomb,
Such as babies killed while in Momma’a womb.
We must not offend.
Stark language must end.
Words like: murder, gloom, doom and kaboom.

Sacred Revelations
Topic: Fable Excerpts



Excerpt From The Grim Shadow: A Modern Day Fable

"Far off near the edge of The Dimension of Barbarik close to the top of Mount Egavas was a naturally hidden cave of crystal formations. At night it was dark and dreary but during the day for the few moments that the sunbeams blazed directly through a small aperture in its ceiling the entire cave would be transformed into a giant prism reflecting a thousand ricocheting rainbows of light. The existence of the cave was known only to members of the Clan of the True Believers. It's secrets were sacred and never to be discussed outside of the cave, not even amongst themselves."

A Culture Distorted

BAD CHOICE

How much progress would be unrecorded,
How greatly our culture distorted,
If Edison and Gates,
Shakespeare and Yeats
Had never been born, but aborted?

The Clans of Barbarik - Which Clan would YOU belong to?
Topic: FABLE/PARABLE



In The Dimension of Barbarik there are six Clans: The True Believers, The Idealists, The Power Hungry, The Skeptics, The Indifferent and the Truly Persecuted. Nanah Cub is a True Believer with a promise seared into his heart's memory - he will be there to greet Tare Ree upon her entrance into Barbarik. Meanwhile, The Executioner has been patiently lurking in the grim shadow that has crept insidiously over The Dimension of Barbarik, making it a race against time to see who gets to Tare Ree first. A story packed full of action, suspense, betrayal, terrorism and a dubious political election, The Grim Shadow: A Modern Day Fable is at its core a parable of courage, loyalty and love.


Which Clan of Barbarik would YOU belong to?

IDENTITY OBSCENITY
Topic: Outrageous

On TV news during a report on stem cell research which was aired repeatedly, they kept showing a petri dish full of little nubbins - human beings that looked to be about the size of an uncooked navy bean. All I could think of is that it was an obscenity to have such reckless disregard for human life and to be discussing such life as if it were insignificant and then to discuss destroying it for research as if that destruction were also inconsequential. The world has gone mad.

Identity:
The quality or condition of being the same as something else. The collective aspect of the set of characteristics by which a thing is definitively recognizable or known. The set of personal characteristics by which an individual is recognizable as a member of a group, individuality.

Obscenity
Offensive to accepted standards of decency or modesty. Lewd, repulsive, disgusting. Offensive to the mind. An abhorrent, loathsome, or repellent deed. Morally repugnant customs. Repulsive behavior, an indecent gesture.

I wrote The Grim Shadow: A Modern Day Fable in response to such grotesque disregard for the sacredness of human life. It will be published in September.

THE ISLAND Movie Theme - Sanctity of Life
Topic: Movie Reviews

My husband and I went to see the movie, The Island, the day it came out. It was an enjoyable film with a lot of action. I was quite surprised with its "pro-life" theme. It focused on the evil of creating human beings solely for the purpose of destroying them for the benefit other human beings.

I was also surprised by its low box office the opening weekend. I feel perhaps it would be a good idea for pro-life advocates to go and support this movie. How often does Hollywood come out with something with this kind of message?

LEGAL ISSUE

Five Justices' wanton support
Preserves the grim "right" to abort:
To keep babies alive,
Replace one of those five
And establish a life-choosing Court.

REALLY GOT THE COGS WORKING...
Topic: Fable Reviews



It's refreshing to look at the abortion debate through a different looking glass. Things that we've grown accustomed to seem so 'odd' or 'grotesque' when we examine them within the context of your work. Really got the cogs working... This was an excellent piece! Keep writing. (PollGear Feedback)

Welcome to My Home
Topic: Fable Excerpts



An excerpt from:
The Grim Shadow: A Modern Day Fable

Then one fateful day The Dimension of Barbarik started closing in on him. He was being squeezed and pushed and crushed in the darkness. Everything in Nanah Cub's world was changing! A panic seized him and he was terrified of what would come next. Suddenly the darkness was shattered by a bright light! And the warmth was replaced by a shivering cold. And Nanah Cub felt so - unprotected!

Then almost as if by magic he found himself within a warm, sheltering embrace and looked for the first time into somehow familiar eyes filled with joy and laughter. And the familiar melody began again. Only this time he could comprehend its meaning...

"Dear One, welcome to my home.
Always know you're not alone.
You will live here safe with me.
I'll love you for eternity."

THE GRIM SHADOW - A Modern-Day Dable
Topic: FABLE/PARABLE



My name is Carol Saunders and this is my Pro-Life Blog. I campaigned for Patrick J. Buchanan during the 2000 presidential election. The number one reason was because he is a strong defender of the unborn. After the election I wrote a story as a sort of therapy to get over the insanity of politics. It actually did help restore my equilibrium. The story starts out innocuous enough but gets brutal towards the end. The book should be published around the middle of Septemter, 2005.
