(W)Hoos for Life????


Young Pro-Life Virginia’s Annual Conference was held Saturday March 21 at the University of Virginia, sponsored by Hoos for Life and Students for Life of America.  The Key note speaker was Mr. Phil Klein, pictured here with Elizabeth Fields (Regent Students for Life President) and I, discussing the prosecution of abortion clinic violations.

Speaking on “What’s a Pro-Life Lawyer to Do?” I was able to present a Top 10 Countdown of what needs to be understood on the life issue today.

     #10   Understand Abortion Malpractice – that women are being harmed dramatically by abortion – physically, emotionally, and mentally…

     #9     Understand the Studies  – a recent Finnish study showed that women who have an abortion face 248% greater risk of suicide, accidental death or homicide the following year… yet the Boston Globe recently stated that an August 2008 study found that a first abortion done in the first trimester of the pregnancy doesn’t raise mental risks…

     #8     Know the Organizations…

     #7     Understand the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA)…

     #6     Understand Stem Cell Research…

     #5     Understand the Importance of Conscience Clauses…

     #4     Understand the Consequences of Family Breakdown…   

     #3      Understand the End of Life Issues….

     #2      Stay Informed…

     #1      Communicate Professionally…

The matter of abortion is a clear indication that family restoration is needed for the parents who consider the option.  Kudos to the leaders, speakers and students at last weekend’s conference!
