Unfortunately, Nelson Mandela Signed Law Legalizing Unlimited Abortions
The world is paying its respects to civil rights leader and former South African president Nelson Mandela today, after learning that he passed away at the age of 95. While most people respect the civil rights and racial reconciliation work he did, some have questioned where Mandela stood on abortion.
Unfortunately, Mandela signed into law a bill legalizing abortion on demand.

Mother Escapes Forced Abortion by Jumping Out of Abortion Clinic Window
Abortion activists talk a good game about being pro-choice but some “pro-choice” activists are truly pro-abortion. Take, for example, the pro-abortion people who pressured a young woman in England to go to an abortion clinic.
When the mother approached the abortion facility, pro-life advocates who were providing women with abortion alternatives saw her. They spoke to the woman, who said she was being forced to abort by those accompanying her to the abortion facility. Concerned but unsure what to do, the pro-life counselor began to pray and asked others to pray for the woman. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/06/mother-escapes-forced-abortion-by-jumping-out-of-abortion-clinic-window/

Martin Luther King Jr’s Niece Remembers Nelson Mandela
In December 2004, Boston magazine published an article from an anonymous abortion provider. The doctor, whose name, location and gender were not identified, described how she (for the sake of simplicity I will use the pronoun “she”) had originally not wanted to provide abortions:
“When I started medical school in upstate New York, I didn’t want to do terminations of pregnancies at all. My mom is Catholic and my dad is Jewish, and the church we went to had a pretty strong stance on it: The message I got was that abortion was wrong. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/06/martin-luther-king-jrs-niece-remembers-nelson-mandela/

As Belgium Considers Euthanasia for Children, Mom Talks It Up to 10-Year-Old Son
Belgium is on the cusp of allowing children to be euthanized. Newsweek interviewed a euthanasia zealot and professor (of course!) who already discusses with her children the prospect of their one day being killed.
From the story: Jutte van den Werff Ten Bosch has already had the talk with her 10-year-old son. Several times, in fact. No, not the sex talk. The euthanasia talk. “Even if he said, ‘I want to die’, I’d support him,” she explained. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/06/as-belgium-considers-euthanasia-for-children-mom-talks-it-up-to-10-year-old-son/

ABC Warns Viewers: Caution, Your Employer Might be Pro-Life!
Job-searchers, there are plenty of reasons to refuse an offer: there’s the wrong industry, the better offer, the long commute – or maybe, suggests ABC, the dreaded Christian boss.
During ABC’s “World News with Diane Sawyer” Nov. 26 segment, Senior National Correspondent Jim Avila reported that the latest Supreme Court case will be “making your boss’ faith a question to ask in future job interviews.” The Supreme Court agreed to hear appeals challenging the Obama administration’s contraception mandate the same day. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/06/abc-warns-viewers-caution-your-employer-might-be-pro-life/
Obama Denies IRS Ever Targeted Pro-Life Groups
In an interview with SNBC’s Chris Matthews on Thursday, President Barack Obama dismissed the notion that the IRS ever targeted pro-life groups or conservatives. The IRS scandal flared this summer as pro-life groups learned they had been targeted and seen their applications for nonprofit status delayed.
The IRS has been found to be targeting pro-life and conservative groups because of their positions and, this summer, a tape was released showing a disturbing phone call the Internal Revenue Service placed to a non-profit organization telling it to keep its Christian faith and views on abortion to itself. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/12/06/obama-denies-irs-ever-targeted-pro-life-groups/
