Yesterday, the House of Representatives sided with science and voted to protect unborn children who are capable of feeling pain from abortion procedures.

The blinders are being lifted, and even pro-abortion Americans want restrictions on aborting children who experience pain. The Kermit Gosnell trial and the closure of abortion clinics around the country for unsanitary, unsafe conditions have created a public awareness of the violence against women and children disguised by such names as “women’s health clinic,”  “family planning,” and “reproductive healthcare.”

Liberty Counsel urges the United States Senate to pass this bill and to put an end to the brutality against unborn children. Science shows that children are capable of experiencing pain by 20 weeks after fertilization. We can no longer put our heads in the sand and ignore this fact.

(audio) There is new research coming out of the University of Toronto that says that 20 weeks is a uniquely vulnerable time for children in the womb because the pain system has been fully developed, but the higher level pain-modifying system has not been developed. The repressive modifying factor that would put a governor on the  incredible level of pain is not developed. The child feels the full pain without the modifying effect. This is the time period when Gosnell and others were performing their late-term abortions.

Pray that this moment that America has experienced with Kermit Gosnell—which is not an abnormality; it is the face of abortion—pray that it brings America to its knees, and we change our ways and return to a culture of life in America.

Take Back America

This revised edition (2011) by Mat Staver lays out the clear biblical and historical basis for bringing America back to her roots.

"God is the foundation of good government and national prosperity...America is broken...Something must be done. America doesn't need another program. Money won't fix our problems. Articulate politicians will not save us. We need God in America again."
