March for Life 2007 1/10/2007 By Cara Cook Join the largest annual protest against abortion! In the wake of roughly 48 million (yes, that's 48,000,000) abortions since Roe v. Wade, the 34th annual March for Life on January 22 will remind public officials that many Americans oppose the decision made by nine Supreme Court justices in 1973.
The March for Life Education and Defense Fund's theme for this year - "Thou Shalt Protect the Equal Right to Life of Each Innocent Human in Existence at Fertilization. No Exception! No Compromise!" - comes at an appropriate time as the new House of Representatives pushes a measure that would force taxpayers to fund embryonic stem cell research, which destroys human life in its earliest stages.
"On January 22, 1973, when the Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade, it was known as fact - not as theory - that each preborn human life begins at fertilization, when the father's sperm fertilizes the mother's ovum," reads the Fund's Web site. "Contrary arguments suggest in error that life may begin at implantation, at viability, or even at birth."
The March for Life Rally will begin at 12:00 p.m. on the National Mall. Concerned Women for America wishes every success to those marching on January 22. Let us all continue to work, hope and pray for the day when the tyranny of abortion will finally come to an end.
