40th March for Life crowds could top Obama Inauguration
The biggest crowds ever for the annual March for Life protest are expected to hit Washington January 25 as hundreds of thousands attend the 40th anniversary rally to protest the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion, according to organizers.
The march, expected to attract tens of thousands more than the record 400,000 two years ago, could rival President Obama's Inauguration Day crowd, propelled by the growing youth support of efforts to overturn Roe v.

Ecumenists are more interested in the One World than they are in stopping abortions.

The worst thing is that believers who get caught up in such a united front, end up uniting with all sorts and lose their cutting edge, along with losing the persecution which comes from having a cutting edge. If folks want to do something, get out into the world and meet real, living people who are bound for hellfire, and tell them of God's great redemption through Jesus Christ, and that "God now commandeth all men everywhere to repent."

Marches beat another civil war lasting 4 years and with 750,000 boys dead.
