The nice people at Earth Unplugged enlist top geeks (including BS favourites zefrank and the University of Nottingham Periodic Videos team) to present fascinating facts about the planet that may ultimately counterbalance a corresponding list of sixty depressingly mundane things that someone may yet compile.

10/01/2013 Abortion hearings. Pictured Dr Sean O'D

Peter Boylan is being totally disingenuous when he says that a lot of people against the recent abortion Act did not know that the principle of dual effect is respected. Pro-life people are very well educated about these extremely important issues of life and death.

I wish the same could be said for the pro-Aborts. Fr. Doran was simply stating that the direct intentional killing of a child will not be carried out in the Mater. The Government can provide its own killing fields and its own abortionists.

It appears there are several willing candidates. The EGM of the College of Psychiatry of Ireland in September will have a lot of interesting things to say about the abuse of medical personnel to facilitate unnecessary abortions.

Dr. Boylan is of a Pro-Choice persuasion. He is not an unbiased observer and he was allover the media peddling abortion legislation until suddenly he stopped…and re-emerged as the “independent” expert in the Savita Halappanavar inquiry. Now that is over, he can get back into the game. And, surprise surprise, he is doing so!
