Life Matters


Commissioner Brian Johnston examines, along with various guests and experts, how the dismissal of the legal Right To Life has impacted the nature of the law, the practice of medicine, ethics, the arts, and personal relationships. With constant reminders of how a culture of life invigorates and ennobles the human experience, Johnston and his guests give positive answers and access to numerous available resources.

Feb 16, 2019

Mid-February 2019 saw a dramatic change in the public acknowledgement of the Right to Life.  The State of New York passed a sweeping abortion measure and also struck down a law protecting children who were born alive in the process of abortion.  They legalized infanticide.  Worse, the entire legislature then “celebrated” this as part of feminist liberation. The states of Virginia, Vermont, New Mexico and others also introduced similar legislation.  

As we have noted in previous programs, the precarious state of Roe v. Wade and the likelihood that it will soon be overturned, has caused radical feminists to overreach in their attempts to secure the unlimited right to kill their baby.  

President Trump made a point of reminding Americans of this great evil.  And after presenting a proposal for a new family leave act, in order for parents to bond with their children, the President strongly condemned the infanticide measures.  

He asked Congress to pass the Pain Capable Act that would protect a child from late term abortion.  

Brian discusses the implications and includes an interview with Fr. Frank Pavone who met with Brian at the West Coast gathering for life.
