Savita didnt want abortion.
In a major change in the debate related to the death of a woman in Ireland that abortion activists are using to push legalizing abortion, a newspaper admits that the woman may not have sought an abortion before she died.
Help take down planned parenthood
Help LifeNews Take on Planned Parenthood Next Year
Dear LifeNews.com Readers,
As you know, pro-abortion President Barack Obama was re-elected and the pro-life movement will be forced to spend another four years working to stop his abortion agenda.
This election defeat occurred in part because Obama's best friends at Planned Parenthood spent millions on his re-election. Did you know the abortion giant spent $15 million from its political coffers to get Obama re-elected?
That $15 million buys a lot of television ads - 46,141 in fact - that put the Planned Parenthood pro-abortion message front and center in front of millions of Americans. The billion-dollar abortion business increased the number of ads it ran in the 2012 election 350 percent compared to the ads it ran during 2008.
Because of Obama's re-election, the abortion company will continue getting more than $350 million in taxpayer funding each and every year.
While Planned Parenthood lives off of the public dime, it pushes women into abortions and 91% of pregnant women who walk through the doors of Planned Parenthood get abortions rather than pregnancy support and assistance. More than half the financial Planned Parenthood's clinics generate comes from abortion - they don't make money from saving the lives of unborn babies and helping women.
And next year, Planned Parenthood is putting a new mandate in place requiring every one of its affiliates nationwide to perform abortions. That's right, when Planned Parenthood says it's all about family planning or women's health the only mandate it has on its local chapters and their clinics is that they do abortions.
LifeNews was one of the leading pro-life groups educating Americans about abortion and the abysmal pro-abortion record of President Obama and his close ties to the biggest abortion business in the country. Yet, we can't keep up with Planned Parenthood's $15 million dollar campaign slush fund or its $1 billion dollar bank account. The fact is the pro-life movement is getting outspent by the pro-abortion side and the result is more abortions, more abortion funding and more unborn children dying from abortions.
But that won't stop us from doing everything we can to take on Planned Parenthood next year and expose how it destroys the lives of babies before birth and wounds women in the process. We will redouble our efforts in 2013 to do everything possible to cut their funding and close their abortion clinics.
LifeNews is relying on you to help us bridge that financial gap. Please support us with the most generous donation possible. Whether you can give $25, $50, $100 or more, every donation helps us defeat Planned Parenthood and the abortion culture. Please help us!
Sincerely,
Steven Ertelt, Editor

The Smoke Of Satan by Fr. Longnecker
There are many problems in the Catholic Church that might be thought to be the ‘smoke of Satan’ entering the church, but for my money one thing, above all others, has been the successful work of Satan, which has undermined the church, emasculated her ministry, sabotaged the aims of the Holy Spirit and captured a multitude of souls.
It is the modernist re-interpretation of the Catholic faith. The reductionist results of modern Biblical scholarship and the infiltration of a modernist, rationalistic and materialistic mindset meant that the supernatural was assumed to be impossible, and therefore the Bible stories (and also any supernatural elements of the faith) had to be ‘de-mythologized.’ Everything supernatural within the Biblical account and within the lives of the saints and within the teaching of the church were assumed to be impossible and had to be ‘re-interpreted’ so they would make sense to modern, scientifically minded people.
So the feeding of the five thousand wasn’t a miracle. Instead the ‘real miracle’ was that everyone shared their lunch. Everything had to be questioned and ‘re-interpreted’ in such a way that it could be accepted and understood by modern people. So when we call Jesus Christ “God Incarnate” what we really mean was that he was so fully human, and that as he reached his potential as a man that he shows us what divinity looks like. When we speak of the Blessed Virgin we mean she was ‘a very good and holy Jewish young woman.’ When we speak of the ‘Real Presence’ we mean that we see the ‘Christ that is within each one of us.”
I hate this crap.
It’s the smoke of Satan, and it’s virtually triumphant within the mainstream Protestant churches, and sadly, the modern Catholic Church in the USA is riddled through with the same noxious heresy. The reason it is so obnoxious and disgusting is because priests and clergy of all sorts still use all the traditional language of the liturgy, the Scriptures and the creeds, but they have changed the meaning of it altogether. They never actually stand up and say that they have changed the meaning, and that they no longer believe the faith once delivered to the saints. They don’t discuss the fact that they have not only changed the meaning, but robbed it of meaning altogether. Instead they still stand up week by week and recite the creed as if they think it is true, but what they mean by ‘true’ is totally different from what their people mean.
So Father Flannel stands up on Easter Day and says, “Alleluia! Today we rejoice in the glorious resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ from the dead.” His people think he really believes that Jesus’ dead body came back to life by the power of God and that he went on to live forever. In fact what Father Flannel really means is that “in some way the beautiful teachings of Jesus were remembered and continued by his followers long after his tragic death.” The people don’t know why Father Flannel’s Catholic life is so lightweight and limp and they don’t know why his style is so lacking in substance, and they go on in their muddled way thinking that he really does believe the Catholic faith when, in fact, he doesn’t at all.
Consequently, Fr Flannel doesn’t really have much of a message at all. He doesn’t believe any of the gospel except as some sort of beautiful story which inspires people to be nicer to each other. All that is left of his priesthood, therefore, is to be a nice guy to entertain people with inspirational thoughts and get everyone to be nicer to one another and try to save the planet.
The poor faithful have swallowed this stuff for two or three generations now, and they don’t even know what poison they’re swallowing because the lies are all dressed up in the same traditional language the church has always used. It’s like someone has put battery acid into a milk bottle and given it to a baby, and never imagined that there was anything wrong with doing so–indeed thought it was the best thing for baby.
The faithful don’t know why their church has become like a cross between a Joan Baez concert and a political activism meeting. They don’t understand why they never hear the need for confession or repentance or hear about old fashioned terms like ‘the precious blood’ or ‘ the body, blood, soul and divinity of Our Lord and Savior” The fact of the matter is Father Flannel doesn’t really think that sort of thing is ‘helpful’.
This is why evangelization of the American Catholics in the pew is probably the most difficult task of all. They don’t know what they don’t know. For three generations now they have been given watered down milk and been told it was wine. They actually think that Catholic lite is what it’s all about, and are astounded to think that there are some of us who think that they have actually been fed a version of Christianity that is scarcely Christianity at all.
