Unemancipated Minors

 

   

Attorney General Greg Abbott Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott gave his recent opinion about underage girls who have gotten pregnant by older men and sent to the abortion clinics.  The law is not only holding the sex predators accountable, but capital murder charges can be filed against the doctor(s) who did not have parental consent in the third-trimester. General Abbott is known for protecting the rights of children.  As the doctors are investigated for murder, the investigation will extend to all arenas, including men impregnating the underage girl(s).http://www.oag.state.tx.us/opinions/ga/ga0501.pdf

 
         
         
         
   

Crack for the Eyes

Pornography is popular — and addictive — because when people look at it, it stimulates pleasure sensors in the brain, Struthers explained. The same brain sensors are activated, in varying degrees, when people eat, play video games, go shopping or engage in any sexual activity. Drugs and gambling also stimulate these sensors, he said. Although experts are unclear about how this sensor stimulation becomes addictive, Struthers argues that because 90 to 95 percent of men couple the practice with self-stimulation, the sensory overload begs repetition. ‘Crack For The Eyes’: EMU Speaker Discusses Science Of Porn

Clear Out the Debris

Deep inside each of us there is a river—a river of life. The river is a wonderful gift, given to each of us by God. This river refreshes, renews, and revitalizes our lives. I'm sure all of us have known people from time to time who have defied all logic and stayed alive years longer than they should have or they've been able to keep up a positive outlook on life even though terrible things had happened to them. Their "river" ran strong and would not stop flowing. On the other hand, there are those who seem to always be down, whether physically or emotionally. No matter what they seem to try, they can't seem to snap out of it. Their river has been stopped up...and only a little trickle seems to pass through. Clear Out the Debris...And Let the River Flow
