The Foundation for Moral Law, an Alabama legal foundation dedicated to strict adherence to the Constitution as intended by its Framers, urged school boards and other governmental bodies to make sure they have the full picture before caving in to the demands that religious aspects of the culture be removed from the public arena.
At the recent American Medical Association (AMA) Convention, the organization reaffirmed their stance opposing physician-assisted suicide and euthanasia which appears in their Code of Medical Ethics. The Code of Medical Ethics offers guidance to help physicians meet the ethical challenges of medical practice.

Frontline Ministries, Inc., and the Exodus Mandate Project announced today that a “Mass Exodus” of children from the public school system is the only logical response to the transgender bathroom edict by the Obama Administration. Sadly, the response of many Christian leaders and pastors has been silence or simply whining or complaining that cannot change the situation to protect the children. These leaders offer weak solutions or advocate “conservative school reform” rather than call for an exodus of children into the sanctuary of K-12 Christian schools and homeschooling.
Katie Short, VP of Legal Affairs for the Life Legal Defense Foundation, appeared in federal court yesterday afternoon with attorneys for the Thomas More Society on behalf of David Daleiden and his Center for Medical Progress (CMP) in the case of Planned Parenthood v. CMP. Yesterday’s hearing addressed Life Legal’s Motion to Dismiss Planned Parenthood’s lawsuit against Daleiden as well as our “Anti-SLAPP” Motion. A SLAPP, or Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation, is an impermissible lawsuit filed solely for the purpose of harassing, intimidating, and silencing a defendant. California provides special procedures to protect defendants in SLAPP suits. In this case, Planned Parenthood, a 100-year old corporation with annual revenue exceeding $1.3 billion, filed suit against 27-year-old David Daleiden and his small non-profit organization the Center for Medical Progress (CMP) in order to punish David for releasing documentation exposing the abortion cartel’s role in the trafficking of the bodies of aborted children, as well as to chill him and other from conducting further investigations. Planned Parenthood is seeking tens of millions of dollars in damages and attorney fees from Daleiden and his fellow investigators.
