The Supreme Court of the United States handed down their decision in the Hobby Lobby case. That decision was in favor of liberty. Hobby Lobby has been fighting for the right to _not_ provide and pay for the type of “healthcare” that can cause an abortion of a tiny little baby in the womb.

33 Years Ago

Thirty three years ago today, my mom and dad were married. Ten months and eight days later I was born. I now have seven brothers and sisters…
I admit that, as staunchly pro-life as I am, I have not kept up with the proceedings in Texas as much as I would like. But my Twitter stream is a pretty even split between the pro-choicers name-calling the pro-lifers, and vice versa and it keeps nagging at me to write something about it…
One of the hardest questions I have to face is the now ubiquitous, “how are you doing?” or “how are you holding up?” It’s not hard because it’s the wrong question, or that I wish people would quit asking it — well, I mean I have heard it a lot and I’m ready for people to quit asking it, but I understand why it’s being asked.

It doesn’t matter how conception took place, it doesn’t matter if it’s a teenager sleeping around, or a woman walking a seedy street in Chicago wearing next to nothing just begging for, and getting it. It does not matter whether it’s my daughter or yours. Being pro-life should mean that you are never, ever for abortion…
Random pictures of randomness…
I’ve had the opportunity to work from home a lot lately. And Natasha likes to sit in my lap when she gets up from her nap. She doesn’t like to talk… no not at all. Just sit. And watch. And possibly scowl…
