WV State Lawmakers Vote to Support Later Term Abortion. Here’s How They Voted.
Posted on February 13, 2014 in Life by Nathan Cherry
Once again our lawmakers have claimed to be pro-life while proving they support the unregulated abortion industry in West Virginia. They have ignored the overwhelming majority of West Virginians that support life and want to see the abortion industry regulated. They have shown that decades of one party leadership in West Virginia is partially responsible for the position we are in nationally. They have failed.
To the lawmakers that voted to defend unborn children from torture and pain, thank you. To those who turned a blind eye to the suffering of West Virginia’s most vulnerable mountaineers, shame on you. The graphic below shows exactly how each lawmaker voted on this critical bill. I highly recommend letting your lawmaker know if you are pleased with his or her vote.

U.S. Abortion Rate Drops to Lowest Level in Decades
Posted on February 6, 2014 in Life by Nathan Cherry
The AP reports: “The U.S. abortion rate declined to its lowest level since 1973, and the number of abortions fell by 13 percent between 2008 and 2011, according to the latest national survey of abortion providers conducted by a prominent research institute.”
This despite living under the most pro-abortion president in U.S. history. Even though the Obama administration has done everything in its power to advocate for abortion, abortion numbers are falling. The Obama administration has partnered with Planned Parenthood to promote abortion, fund abortion, and do everything possible to see abortion advance. But the message of life is winning.
The video below is one of the most unique I’ve seen describing abortion in America. As Josiah, the speaker, shares hist story and comments on the tragedy of abortion in America drums play in the background. Each one of those drum beats represents an abortion that will take place today somewhere in America.
Perhaps the most sobering line from the video is at the end when Josiah reminds us that “if you think this isn’t enough lives that are lost, watch it again tomorrow, because it will happen again.”
Watch the video and share it with someone else. The message of life is winning and we will see the end of abortion in my generation if we continue to stand and speak. If the video doesn’t appear automatically, please refresh your browser.
At the recent Students for Life of America national conference in Maryland, pro-life advocates addressed 5 myths the abortion industry uses to justify the continued murder of millions of innocent children. Each myth, along with a response is posted below so you can learn how to engage those who might use these thoughts to justify abortion. The reality is that there is no justification for killing an innocent unborn child. By learning these myths and their responses we can engage those that seek to justify abortion with the truth.

Most Americans Support Abortion Restrictions
Posted on January 29, 2014 in Life, Public Policy by Nathan Cherry
You won’t hear this in the news tonight. But a new poll shows that most Americans support abortion restrictions and do not support abortion on demand up to the moment of birth. Currently in my home state of West Virginia the abortion industry is unregulated and abortion is legal up to the moment of birth. Our lawmakers seem indifferent to this fact and turn a blind eye. But this poll bears the truth of what most West Virginians and Americans in general believe about abortion.
LifeNews.com: “The Marist University poll, which was sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, finds 62% of all Americans support “changing laws to allow for some restrictions on abortion,” while 84 percent of Americans do not support abortion on demand up until the birth of the child.
URGENT: House Passes “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act”
Posted on January 29, 2014 in Life by Nathan Cherry
I wrote on Monday that the House of Representatives would be voting on the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act” this week. They held that vote on Tuesday and the bill passed with an overwhelming majority. Considering that polls have consistently shown a super-majority of Americans don’t want their tax dollars used to fund the abortion industry, this bill only makes sense. Not to mention the federal government should not be in the business of killing unborn children.
Video: Brit Hume Says Abortion “Snuffs Out” a Human Life
Posted on January 28, 2014 in Life by Nathan Cherry
This short video by Fox News political analyst Brit Hume on the anniversary of Roe V. Wade reminds us all why we continue to protest the infamous Supreme Court Decision. Hume says abortion “snuffs out” a beating heart and kills a living human being.
Take a moment to watch this short but powerful video and share it with others. The battle to defend the unborn is not growing tired, it is growing stronger as each generation realizes that life is sacred and should be defended. Abortion advocates’ days are numbered as we draw closer to the day when abortion is ended and every unborn child is protected.

Photos of March for Life Reveal the Face of the Pro-Life Movement
Posted on January 26, 2014 in Life, Public Policy by Nathan Cherry
Maybe you missed the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C. last week. It certainly did not gain a lot of media attention as they continue their complicit partnership with the abortion industry. But hundreds of thousands of people braved cold temperatures to march in the nation’s capitol showing their support for life.
The photos below show one striking feature about the force behind the pro-life movement. While the media tries to claim it is old men seeking to “oppress women,” these photos reveal an enormous number of young people, and women. In other words, those driving the pro-life movement are young people and women that have been impacted by abortion in some way.
Have You Seen The Awesome Pics of Unborn Animals? Amazing!
Posted on January 23, 2014 in Life by Nathan Cherry
I love photography. Especially photography of things that we can’t normally see, such as space and underwater images. For this reason the images below of unborn animals is an amazing sight that we all need to take a moment to see and share.
What is so unbelievable is that each of these unborn animals looks just like the adult, born, version. perhaps you thought that animals somehow looked strange and unrecognizable before they were born. These images will show without a doubt that they in fact look exactly as they do when they are born.
Please take a moment to look at these amazing images and then share them with others. Be sure to pay attention to the last image, it is particularly special and important.

Sixty-two days. Today, my dear son or daughter, you are 62 days old. I say son or daughter, because, you are 62 days old in the womb today, so we don’t know a whole lot yet about you. But what we do know is this. You are ours and you are loved.
Without yet even seeing you, I feel your presence each day, and I look forward to your presence being made more aware to the world through a soon-to-be burgeoning belly and through movements that make your sister and father squeal with joy.
