The January 22 March for Life
We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all human beings are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among which is the right to life; and Therefore
The right to life of each human being shall be preserved and protected by every human being in the society and by the society as a whole, and
The life of each human being shall be persevered and protected from that human being’s biological beginning when the father’s sperm fertilizes the mother’s ovum, and
The life of each human being shall be preserved and protected from the biological beginning throughout the natural continuum of that human being’s life by all available ordinary means and reasonable efforts, and
The life of each human being shall be preserved and protected at each stage of the life continuum to the same extent as at each and every other stage regardless of state of health or condition of dependency, and
The life of each human being shall be preserved and protected to the same extent as the life of each and every other human being regardless of state of health or condition of dependency, and
When there is any doubt that there exists a human being’s life to preserve and protect, such doubt shall be resolved in favor of the existence of a human being, and
When two or more human beings are in a situation in which their lives are naturally endangered, all available ordinary means and reasonable efforts shall be used to preserve and protect the life of each and every human being so endangered;
Wherefore, Pursuant To These Principles, we recommend and urge the adoption of a Mandatory Human Life Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.

Respecting Life: Caring for People with Disabilities
A disproportionate number of developing babies with a disability are not given a fighting chance to live; 9 out of 10 pre-born babies with a serious disability are aborted. This is a tragedy. While it is true that having a disability is not easy, and caring for those with disabilities comes with challenges, studies show that having a disabled person in the family actually [Read more…] about Respecting Life: Caring for People with Disabilities
