Even the Wikipedia page for Jim Pouillon reads that "the murder of Jim Pouillon occurred on September 11, 2009... Pouillon was killed while protesting against abortion in front of Owosso High School in Owosso, Michigan."  The man who killed Pouillon is named Harlan James Drake.  That same day, he shot a businessman named Michael Fuoss at a different location.  Fuoss was also killed.  May God rest his soul. Because the two events were unrelated, and because the second shooting had nothing to do with the abortion debate, one might argue that Pouillon just happened to be at "the wrong place at the wrong time," namely, in front of an abortion center.  Furthermore, I [...]

Gloria Polo, a middle-aged Columbian woman, had a near death experience in May of 1995 when she was struck by lightning in Bogotá.  After cardiac arrest (but before God gave her another chance on earth) she saw the effects of all of her life's actions on earth from a spiritual perspective.  Her initial sentence (before resuscitation) was hell. I cleaned up a translation from the Spanish and put it on my blog here a few years ago.  The entire thing is worth reading.  But the section regarding what happens spiritually in an abortion will change you forever.  I extricate two parts from her above linked account and quote them verbatim [...]

I am surprised how many modernist Catholics claim to be both "pro-life" and "pro-evolution." They hardly realize the contradiction involved here. Perhaps they believe both stances are "pro-science," but they would only be half correct. Of course, you don't need Catholicism (only common sense) to know it's wrong to kill a baby in the uterus. Neonatology and advances in genetics have made this reality even more undeniable. But again, how can so many Catholics believe they are marrying faith and reason in accepting Darwinian evolution?  Such Catholics must be stuck in the minds of the liberal hierarchy of the past 50 years because countless scientists (both Christian and atheistic) have [...]

When I tell people that I have given spiritual direction to organizations working for the restoration of child sex-slaves and even have friends associated with those on the front lines of international rescue using automatic weapons, the most common response I get is: "Oh, you see, my city has the highest rate of child trafficking because this interstate runs through it!"  This response is getting really tiresome.  Firstly, these can't all be true considering how many people have told me about "their city" and "that interstate." Secondly, this response shows that most people think child sex-trafficking has mostly to do with moving children around for single-time events (like the Super [...]
