Now why would an mere ultrasound cause someone to change their mind?

Why would someone post obviously biased sources constantly....?

Too bad an ultrasound can't also pay for diapers, cause family members to stop pressuring for an abortion, cause a deadbeat father to stick around/stop cheating/get a job, or make an underlying health problem that makes pregnancy dangerous go away.
But hey it makes people not in the situation and who likely never have been or will be in the situation feel better about themselves so let's make everyone get ultrasounds instead of doing things that actually help.

Thank you for sharing this. God scatters and sets evil to running in the most unlikely, surprising of ways, and pierces the very heart of darkness. His truth will shine as the noonday sun. He is relentless. Amen.

To sustain the belief that there is no God, atheism has to demonstrate infinite knowledge, which is tantamount to saying, "I have infinite knowledge that there is no being in existence with infinite knowledge" --Ravi Zacharias
‘If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents—the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else’s. But if their thoughts—i.e. of materialism and astronomy—are merely accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true? I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents. It’s like expecting that the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milkjug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset.’

i hated it when God insisted i "yawp!"
but He knew i must,
and that my life would not begin,
until i yawped.
We all must learn to yawp.
we MUST awaken the passion,
that part of us that feels intensely,
and is NOT afraid to say so
or to express it.
Otherwise we are just dead men walking.

Speaking as someone who HAS been in those situations, I can say that there is no obstacle that is too great that God cannot help us overcome it. Sometimes some of the most difficult situations yield the most rewarding results!
As for this Planned Parenthood leader, I'm glad that he had that awakening. He will now have a testimony that he can share with others, and has a unique perspective that will likely have a great impact.

Far be it for me to interrupt the "amen bender" here, but as far as this story goes....so what?
People have a change of heart about their professions all the time. This woman decided she didnt want to be part of PP anymore so she quit, why is this such a banner event?
And if this is such a big deal, should we also consider it an indictment of Capitalism that many people quit corporate jobs because they find it soulless and unfulfillable?
THINK about this kind of stuff before we turn it into shotgun opera, mkay?

We're not running, we're not running.

When hope is non-existent,
Our instincts all scream "Run",
We never turn our backs or even bite our tongues.

yet God continues to pierce the very heart of darkness, in unexpected and surprising ways. He wins hearts. Against all odds, He wins hearts. May it be so, amen.

You are entitled to your opinion. That is because you have the privilege of the freedom of speech. But that is what it is, your opinion.
Yes, God is relentless. Not ineffective. For He WILL accomplish what He started. He pierces the heart of darkness in unexpected and surprising ways. He is not finished. May His will be done.
