By Jonathon Van Maren After gay marriage was legalized in the US, one prominent LGBT activist was asked what the next step for the movement was. His answer was succinct: “Punish the wicked.” By the “wicked,” of course, he meant anyone who dissented from the agenda of the LGBT movement—and that included entire states. North…

By Jonathon Van Maren Nothing infuriates abortion activists more than the truth—especially when that truth is being presented to a public that they need to accept their deceitful rhetoric, or at least to remain mired in apathy. In Canada, even photos of babies in the womb have been referred to as “graphic images of fetuses”…

By Jonathon Van Maren So, our internationally embarrassing prime minister headed over to New York University this week, and this time his costume of choice was as a “graduate.” He was to receive an honorary law degree—which he could really use, since he has a bad habit of not completing the degrees he actually starts—and…

By Jonathon Van Maren We touched down in the Dublin Airport early Saturday morning—my wife, daughter Charlotte, and colleagues Nick and Maaike Rosendal, ready for two weeks of pro-life activism with the Save the Eighth Campaign. Abortion activists have been attempting to roll back Ireland’s Eighth Amendment, which includes specific protections for pre-born babies in…

By Jonathon Van Maren May 11, 2018 (LifeSiteNews) – Earlier this week, I spoke to a pro-life banquet in the little Saskatchewan town of Estevan, population 10,000.
