I have worn many labels (Not in any particular order): Catholic, Wife, Mom,Gramma, Doctor, Major, Soccer Mom, Military Wife, Fellow.
All of these filter my views of the world. I hope that like St. Monica, I can through prayer, words and example, lead my children and others to Faith.

A Nightmare

Another reason I plan to be in church on Halloween. It seems the pro-abortion folks have decided that the possibility that abortion on demand might be curtailed is so frightening, they have used this theme to construct a Halloween “haunted house”. Imagine if our government recognized unborn children as complete human persons, intrinsically imbued with human dignity from the moment of their conception. The thought is enough to send a pro-abortion feminist to the fainting couch. Planned Parenthood sees its cash cow threatened so it is presenting this program in conjunction with other pro-abortion groups.

According the Philadelphia Citypaper the idea is modeled after “Hell Houses” used by Evangelical Christian churches to teach the consequences of sin.

"Nightmare," however, aims to present reproductive-rights horrors in a "campy, palatable and fun way," Schewel said. One vignette shows two teenage girls locked in prison; one for taking her younger sister across a state border to get an abortion. While that's not a felony in Pennsylvania, Schewel says a bill in Congress would make it illegal to cross state lines to avoid abortion laws in one's home state. Others show gorier illegal-abortion scenes.

And just how, pray tell, did they make the murder of millions of innocent unborn children “campy, palatable, and fun”? I do not need to enter this scary house. Its mere existence is horrifying. Stories like this drive me to my knees in prayer. Please join me right now and pray:

St. Michael the Archangel,

Defend us this day in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And may thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into Hell, Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.

Amen.

I'm telling you, I really want to throw up. That NARAL brochure I got yesterday had me hopping mad.

These people are so very, very sick.

If abortion is such a campy, fun and palatable experience then why don't they have viewing rooms in their own clinics? Sure, just pack a lunch and make a day of it for everyone.

That's where their true horror houses are, in the clinics that already exist all over the country.

consumed by the evil that seems so right in their own eyes...it IS sick but it's also very sad
