When Is a Royal Baby a Fetus?: “This week, as the U.K.’s Prince William and Kate Middleton were expecting their child at any moment, the impending birth received a galaxy’s worth of media coverage.

On and on the list goes. But if we turn to Scripture, we see that Jesus has a very different answer.”

Even in a nation growing increasingly hostile to religion and Christian virtue, they have the moral sense to support commonsensical regulations against obscenity. Why then can’t we in the United States do the same?”
