The course of inevitable progress ne’er did run smooth.
History Hiccups.
C-section versus abortion to save mother’s life.
Here’s a gory description of abortion by a doctor who performed them, plus a rebuttal of the idea that killing the 2nd or third trimester baby is sometimes needed to save the mother
The Abortion Doctor’s House of Murders
Abortionist Kermit Gosnell’s trial is underway. The horrifying facts of what he did have the stink of hell about them. Meanwhile the pro-choice news media has been discreetly ignoring the horrors. (more…)

Medical Ethicists Advocate for Infanticide.
