A Dominican nun has been seen frequenting an abortion facility in Illinois recently – but not, as one might expect, to pray for an end to abortion or to counsel women seeking abortions, but to volunteer as a clinic escort. Local pro-life activists say that they recognized the escort at the ACU Health Center as Sr. Donna Quinn, a nun outspokenly in favor of legalized abortion, after seeing her photo in a Chicago Tribune article. “I’ve called her sister several times, and she never responded,”

The folks at NBC’s long-running legal franchise Law & Order must have thought they’d garner headlines and praise for their ” balanced, thought-provoking ” take on abortion last Friday, an episode called ” Dignity ” based on the murder of an abortion provider. But balanced it was not: an episode that was meant to focus on the prosecution of a cold-blooded murder ended up putting women’s rights on trial–and viewers picked up on its slant right away. Immediate twitter an

NBC’s venerable crime procedural, “Law & Order,” has endured a fair amount of deserved criticism around here lately. Big Hollywood’s thoughtful critiques of the show’s leftward slide and irksome predictability are, sadly, valid. Like many L&O fans, I’ve been forced to admit that recent seasons have been quite disappointing. The word “cancellation” has cropped up in my mind more than once. That being said, this season has been refreshingly solid. Aside from the atrocious “Let’s

One of the most notorious far-right activists is Randall Terry, who founded the organization Operation Rescue , a radical anti-choice group. In the past, Terry has warned that he and his followers would engage in terrorism unless Congress excludes funding for abortions in health care legislation, launched a “ Defeat Sotomayor ” campaign that depicted the Supreme Court judge as a skull-faced killer, and used the occasion of the assassination of George Tiller to declare that the doctor, who per

16-year-old high school student Jennifer Rankin fully intended to unite her voicelessness with that of the unborn as part of the annual Pro-Life Day of Silent Solidarity when she arrived at school yesterday, reports Bill Henry of Sun Media. She was impeded, however, by her school principal, who stated that the right to free speech does not apply on school property and who forced Rankin to remain in isolation for the entire day as long as she participated in the event. During the annual Day o

Anti-choicers are using eBay to raise money for doctor-killer Scott Roeder , who shot George Tiller while Dr. Tiller attended church. While I don’t object to that in priciple — after all, everyone is entitled to defend themselves in court, and private attorneys are expensive — we aren’t talking about auctioning off that bag of clothes you found in the attic, or your cousin’s collection of shot glasses. No, they’re auctioning off items that have the unique pedigree of being tied to pro-life mur

When the Independent Abortion providers who make up the Abortion Care Network learned that an episode of NBC’s Law and Order was going to be based on the May 31, 2009 assassination of Dr. George Tiller ( a founding member of our organization), many of us were upset. We felt that no matter how his murder was ‘ripped from the headlines’ it was much too soon and too raw to turn it into a piece of popular culture. Now that we have seen it we are furious and deeply offended. For m

For those of you who are angered that the Vatican has ordered an investigation of the LCWR, who feel that these religious women are being unjustly persecuted, perhaps the following story will demonstrate the wisdom of Rome’s decision. I cannot think of any example that synthesizes more succinctly the depths to which some of the religious communities have sunk.
