Here's an email I got that might interest those of you living in Cville this summer
Expose the Lies: Protect Birth Control Anti-contraception action is on the rise. On June 7, anti-woman forces will stage a national protest against birth control and NOW will be there to counter their campaign of misinformation and lies. Here is what the American Life League and the the "Pill Kills" campaign is saying: "Because the pill weakens the immune system, it can cause bacterial infections and can make a woman more susceptible to the AIDS virus." "...the most popular form of birth control, the pill, can kill innocent preborn children. If there is a chance that human beings are going to be murdered, I am going to do everything in my power to help prevent that from happening." "[T]he condom's biggest flaw is that those using it to prevent the conception of another human being are offending God." It continues, "furthermore, each and every act of marital intercourse must be both unitive and open to procreation. Any action, including condom use, which has as its purpose to render procreation impossible is intrinsically evil." Visit The Pill Kills website to learn more about the lies. The NOW National Action Center is calling on you to mobilize a local protest to tell the truth and protect birth control. WHEN: Saturday, June 7 Yes, there is a protest planned at the Planned Parenthood in C-ville by the American Life League. First Friday and Saturday of each month at 10-10:30am, 12-12:30pm, 3-3:30pm are the times. Charlottesville NOW PO Box 5082 Charlottesville, VA 22905 434-963-0669 http://www.avenue.org/cvillenow/ |
