If she really "thought abortions should be performed in public so 'we might hear angels singing as we ponder the glory of conception,'" wouldn't it make more sense to perform the "glorious" conception part in public? Unless angels also sing during abortion, which would be weird, and probably a HIPAA violation. I can

Another issue is that because of the stigma almost no women have publicly talked about having had abortions. The pro-life movement wants to call three in ten American women murderers, in many cases their own friends, family, and even mothers.

Maybe this whole willingness to die thing is an opportunity. Find someone pro-choice who doesn't care about early-stage embryos and is indifferent about having another child, let her get pregnant, and threaten to abort the pregnancy if and only if Lila Rose is alive. Heck, if Ms. Rose holds the scientific beliefs of

I can't think of any pro-lifers who don't call abortion a holocaust.

What's notable isn't her stated but unsubstantiated willingness to die for her cause, but her continual willingness to lie and break her own moral strictures for it. It's too bad for her that reality proved to have a liberal bias. A more paranoid mind might accuse her of practicing taqiyya like the rest of her Taliban

"Take my wife! No, not her, the other one!"

I didn't mean to criticize you at all. It's just something that's been on my mind for a while—the way the Bible explicitly condemns any notion of freedom of religion, at least within the nation of Israel. But so many right-wing Christians extend that to the modern-day U.S. that it seems worthwhile to note the

One of my former co-workers was a little upset when our employer required everyone to get a Facebook account. It was a little hard to protest, though, since this happened after our company was acquired by Facebook.

Number 34, with large fries and a diet Coke?

"When I was young, I got 'corporal punished' and I turned out to support child torture!"

I wonder if it's okay for girlfriends/boyfriends too?

But not Hell, Michigan, or Hell, Arizona, or Hell, California…?

I don't even want to imagine what effect this might have on rape survivors.

Ever heard of a FOAD?

Seriously, though, how do you reconcile the First Commandment with the First Amendment?

This is why we must end the Fed and go back to basing our currency on precious metals.

No, you see, if you read their blog post, that would be too much state intrusion on private life. Unlike scrutinizing couples for having the proper genitalia. I wonder why their blog doesn't allow comments?

Although Captain Crunch might have something to say about that…

Because wine is delicious, as opposed to food products that are legally required to misspell the word "fruit".

Yow. That's too bad. My Catholic high school made us take a course in world religions and I found that by far the most interesting of the religion classes. And Catholics don't worship Mary, they venerate her and pray for her intercession. Mormons are pretty clearly Christians too. I draw the line at calling Christian
