The Four Cardinals: Unambiguously Pro-Life

From Under the Rubble…How Many Holocausts?
On January 22nd, hundreds of thousands of demonstrators will take part in the forty first annual March for Life in Washington.

Rice of Notre Dame Law School says we can build that culture of life. In…
What Has the Pro-Life Movement Accomplished Since 1973?
By John Jansen In the opening scene of Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ, we see Our Lord enduring the Agony in the Garden, and the devil telling Him, “No one man can carry this burden… It is far too heavy. Saving their souls is too costly.” Working in the pro-life movement, we often…
