Resources that can help us understand pro-life issues

Periodically, I have a blog entry which focuses on internet resources that give more detail on an issue we've been discussing. I haven't done this recently for pro-life and since we are approaching the mid-term elections and votes on life issues, I thought this would be a good time to point out some resources. I have come across many new resources since my last resource blog entry (see the July 15th blog entry) and thought I'd share some of these with you.

Women for Faith and Family has a wealth of information not only on pro-life issues, but also sexuality, morality and other important Catholic issues in our world today. Based right here out of St. Louis, they state that their primary purpose is "To assist orthodox Catholic women in their effort to provide witness to their faith, both to their families and to the world." This is both a noble and much-needed service in our world today.

Secondly, Visible Embryo is an excellent resource in which one can better understand the stages of pregnancy and dangers during a pregnancy. It includes many charts and graphics that help one to see these stages of growth.

Another resource is the AbortionFacts web page of the Heritage House web site. This site answers many questions about the techniques of abortion, definition of various abortions as well on RU-486. It is a good resource if one wants to know about methods of abortion or how abortions are performed in various trimesters. There is no explicit graphic content, simply literature information.

Lastly, I have mentioned this site before, but it continues to be a good resource into knowing whether your elected political leaders are or are not supporting life issues. OnTheIssues.org provides numerous ways to view the voting history of your politician on a variety of issues that have come before Congress. It is worth checking out, especially as we near the mid-term elections.

These are but a few of the pro-life resources on the internet. I hope these resources help in gathering a little more information about pro-life issues as well as the dangers to the Culture of Life. If anyone has other good pro-life resources they have come across, please add a comment to this entry listing the URL of the site. It would be greatly appreciated. Until next time...God bless.
