Obama Order Opens Door to Widespread Killing of
Embryonic Humans in Government-Funded Research

WASHINGTON – In a White House ceremony today, President Barack Obama signed an executive order to allow federal funding of research that will require the killing of human embryos.

This order reverses a policy instituted by former President George W. Bush in August 2001, which funded research on already-existing stem cell lines without encouraging any further destruction of human life.

"It is a sad day when the federal government will fund research that exploits living members of the human species as raw material for research," said Douglas Johnson, a spokesman for the National Right to Life Committee. "Obama's order also places our society on a very steep, very slippery slope. Many researchers will not be satisfied to use only so-called surplus embryos. Many researchers are already demanding federal support for research in which human embryos would be created for the specific purpose of research, through human cloning and other methods, and there was nothing in the President's remarks today to limit NIH to the use of so-called surplus embryos created in IVF clinics.

"This sets the stage for an attack on the Dickey-Wicker law, which since 1995 has been a provision of the annual appropriations bills for federal health programs. This law prohibits federal funding of 'the creation of a human embryo or embryos for research purposes; or research in which a human embryo or embryos are destroyed, discarded, or knowingly subjected to risk of injury or death . . .' Any member of Congress who votes for legislation to repeal this law is voting to allow federal funding of human embryo farms, created through the use of human cloning."

As if abortion itself wasn't enough.

I don't know, I love our country, but I can't help fear that God is going to bring a great judgement against us. On the other hand, great events in the Bible have been preceded by the killing of innocent children, as with Moses, and when Jesus was born.

What makes this worse is that adult stem cells have been far more successful, and without taking innocent life. Here is a good article on the subject.

It's possible He has already started the process brother.
Look at our economy, what our leadership is doing...

I am expecting for Obama to announce he is moving forward with the Freedom of Choice Act any day now...

We (as a country) have for decades now shaken our fists in God's face and yelled that "we will not be ruled by you or your word!"

We are not reaping what we have so bountifully sewn. Althougth I am saddened at what is happening to our great country, I have to admit that If I were God, I would have long ago since turned my back on this sin-riddled nation.

The only joy I take from current events is that Bible prophecy is being fulfilled on a daily basis and that we will soon be taken away from this present world of sin.

The world is going down the trail of destruction. Just the way Bible says will.
We need to pray for spiritual change in the Church's, and a spiritual change
in our nations.
Change does not come without spiritual work from Christian through the Church. Many Church's are weak in their teaching. More concern about money and large numbers, then winning souls and following up on new Christians to help them grow and understand the word. New Christian have a lot of questions on the right choices to make. New age Christian have twisted the words of Christ., and confused many people.
My prayer , is for revival in Church's
to spread the truth, about abortions
along with many other sinful ways.
