Saintly Quote - On the Sanctity of Life

Take My Hand, not my life

The common outcry; which is justly made on behalf of human rights - for example, the right to health, to home, to work, to family, to culture - is false and illusory if the right to life, the most basic and fundamental right and the condition for all other personal rights is not defended wtih maximum determination.

- Pope John Paul II

I liked what Huckabee said in his programme....when referring to stem cell research...If scientists negate the theory that a stem cell is a human being, then what is it? A cauliflower? A rose bush? A puppy dog?...It IS a human being.

Now if a person chooses to kill their unborn..are they killing this self same 'cell'? This cell can only become ONE thing..a HUMAN BEING.

Peace, JOY & Love to you Esther:)
