Heartbeat Bill Signed in Kentucky

Babies everywhere are cheering!

Kentucky governor Matt Bevin signed a heartbeat bill Thursday, August 8, 2019. The new law will ban abortions once unborn babies have detectable heartbeats (generally around 6 weeks of pregnancy).

This law didn't come easy.

Federal judge, David J. Hale of the Western District of Kentucky, put a temporary block on this bill in March. He wanted to wait until there was a hearing to determine if the law was constitutional. Hale stated that delaying enforcement until the set the court date could "prevent irreparable harm."

The abortion rate in the state is projected to drop dramatically.

The lawsuit estimated that approximately 90 percent of abortions in Kentucky were performed after six weeks.

Worried about women's health?

There are exceptions. The first includes mothers that are at serious risk, and the second is to prevent death.

"The issue, frankly, isn't about faith. It's about science, medicine, morality," Bevin said. "It's about who among us can justify taking an innocent life?"

Georgia Urges Federal Judge to Dismiss "Heartbeat Bill" Lawsuit

Don't Go Breakin' Georgia's Heart(Beat Bill) Georgia made a compelling argument when the state asked a federal judge not to block the heartbeat bill that's set to take effect Jan. 1. Attorneys representing the state argued in court Monday that the bill "advances Georgia's unique and substantial constitutional interest in protecting unborn human lives, in addition to its interests in protecting maternal health, encouraging childbirth, and safe safeguarding the integrity of the medical profession." They went on to defend the law stating that it is indeed "constitutional and justified." What You Need to Know If the bill passes, pregnant women would be unable to obtain an abortion once a heartbeat can be detected (generally around 6 weeks). The law does contain exceptions. A woman would still be allowed to receive an abortion in the case of rape or incest if a police report was previously filed. Exceptions would also be available for wo...

Who's Deadlier? Planned Parenthood or COVID-19

It's Closer than You Think Contrary to what you might expect, the results are actually much closer than what you would like to believe. According to the CDC , in 2020 there were 376,098 COVID-19 related deaths in the United States. Planned Parenthood disclosed 345,672 abortion services on to their latest annual report . That doesn't even include the additional 593,586 emergency contraception kits. Govenment Funded Deaths Planned Parenthood revealed that government funding was their number one source of revenue on their 2018-2019 annual report . In fact, they received 616.8 million dollars from government health services reimbursements and grants. Exploiting Women Planned Parenthood takes advantage of women. One would think that an organization with such a name would help women plan their parenthood, but this could not be further from the truth. Numbers simply don't lie. During the course of an entire year, the organization reported ...

Shocking Developmemt of Artificial Womb to Grow Lamb Fetus

Are Artifical Wombs the Future? Premature babies are born evey day. It's common for them develop several different health complications including death. One of the primary reasons for these problems is that their lungs are undeveloped, and they will not continue to grow once they have been exposed to the outside air. What if we could find a way to continue the development of a fetus to help ensure a healthier human being? Is it even possible? The Lamb Experiment An experiment was conducted at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Eight lamb fetuses were born prematurely and inserted into artifical wombs. Oxygen was administered through a tube like an umbilical cord. What happened next would shock the world! The lambs started to flourish. They progressed to gain weight, open their eyes, and grow wool coats. Even their organs developed properly. Great Goals The ultimate goal is to help premature babies. Approximately 30,000 infants are born prematu...
