PP Encourages Supporters to Practice Witchcraft

Are things at Planned Parenthood really that bad that they’ve resorted to asking pro-aborts to cast spells on pro-life protesters? The answer, it would seem, is yes.

Leading up to Halloween, 40 Days for Life founder Shawn Carney shared that the Bangor, Maine, Planned Parenthood had asked supporters to play demonic music and cast spells on pro-lifers. As Carney put it, “The abortion industry isn’t even trying to hide the demonic nature of abortion any more.”

Planned Parenthood posted:

Choose your favorite explicit song, such as WAP by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion, to play as your drive by the clinic. Death metal also works well! Windows down, of course. Don’t break local noise ordnances!

Halloween is the perfect time to practice witchcraft. Cast some spells and curse the protestors with a perpetually runny nose or bad parking spots for life!

The 40 Days for Life coordinator in this area, Tom Kelly, wrote an op-ed about this for the Vermont Daily Chronicle. Kelly shares that he and his fellow pro-lifers had to use headphones to drown out the demonic music.

He closed his op-ed with the perfect insight: “The abortion industry only needs to resort to shock value because your prayerful presence is bad for business.”

Keep praying, ladies and gentlemen. Pray especially for these pro-aborts who feel the need to resort to demonic actions. Planned Parenthood’s mask is slipping.

Microsoft’s Stance on Life and Family

The Microsoft Corporation’s health plan covers the cost of abortion for its employees. After the Dobbs decision, it expanded abortion and “gender-affirming care” coverage to include travel and lodging costs, saying it would “continue to do everything we can under the law to protect our employees’ rights and support employees.” It also fully covers contraception costs for employees and offers financial support for IVF, intrauterine insemination, and surrogacy. Microsoft has been “promoting LGBTQIA+ inclusion” since 1989, has donated more than $16 million to LGBTQ+ organizations throughout its lifespan, and promotes this lifestyle through a Pride campaign every year.

VIDEO: Bishop of Arlington Speaks Encouraging Words after Election

It’s easy to feel defeated when citizens enter the voting booth and a majority choose to defy God’s laws rather than love them. Virginia pro-life groups, including American Life League, made every effort to remind faithful Catholics that our love for God comes before all else. 

God procreates children with our help. We must protect them.

God is the author of holy matrimony. We must protect it.

Virginia chose abortion and homosexual unions. That’s a lot to despair about, but Arlington’s bishop says otherwise with the following, uplifting
