While listening to an EWTN program via podcast, I heard this audio spot regarding an international petition by “pro-choice” folks to the United Nations, to make abortion an international human right. I was greatly outraged! Why would anybody want to make the mass murder of unborn children a “right“?

The audio spot, narrated by Jerry Usher from Catholic Answers, urges everyone to sign a counter-petition to recognize, respect and protect the dignity and rights of unborn children. Unlike the Fight FOCA petition, which is only open to US citizens, this one is open to everybody from anywhere on the face of the Earth.

If you value life. If you believe that the dignity and rights of EVERY human individual should be recognized, respected and protected. PLEASE! Go to www.humanrightsforunborn.com right NOW, and sign the petition for Rights and Dignity of the Human Person and the Family.

With the bombardment of the sexual revolution all around us, it is refreshing to see some who take their faith and chastity seriously.

Reported by the Chicago Sun Times: So what is it like to kiss a girl for the first time ever, after she has become your wife?

“It was surreal,” said Claudaniel “CD” Fabien… after his marriage to Melody LaLuz Fabien on Saturday….

Claudaniel, 30, and Melody, 28, had pledged to be abstinent before marriage — but went a little further by agreeing not to kiss each other on the lips before their union was official.

Why so strict? They didn’t even want to get close to temptation, instead waiting until the minister said the magic words: “NOW, you may kiss the bride.”…

Both Claudaniel and Melody Fabien are abstinence educators – Claudaniel for the nonprofit Confederation of Spanish American Families. Melody is director of the “What’s Good” program for the LYDIA Home Association, a Christian service agency. Both teach abstinence programs within the Chicago Public Schools. Read The entire story here.
