There were other students up for awards that night, and more than a few of them were <a title=\"Religious habit\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Religious_habit\" target=\"_blank\">wearing habits<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The sisters gave informed talks on a number of issues, including religious freedom in Vietnam and the relationship between suffering and free will. One was particularly well spoken, so I approached her after the event concluded. She proved to be a fascinating conversationalist, and at some point I simply forgot that this woman belonged to a religious order. After about twenty minutes, I inquired if she was on Facebook. When she said that she wasn&#8217;t, I noted that I would \u201cbe in the area for a while, so if you want to meet up for coffee\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t recall the exact moment when it clicked that the person I was asking out on a date had taken a \u00a0vow of celibacy. What I do recall was the unmitigated wave of embarrassment that followed; while I\u2019m not Catholic, I knew this wasn&#8217;t a varsity move. The sister seemed to be aware of my embarrassment, because she made the sort of facial expression you\u2019d give a puppy who\u2019s just tripped over his ball.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_50329\" style=\"width: 521px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-50329\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-50329 size-full\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/PUP-18-RK0218-01P.jpg\" alt=\"PUP-18-RK0218-01P\" width=\"511\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/PUP-18-RK0218-01P.jpg 511w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/PUP-18-RK0218-01P-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/PUP-18-RK0218-01P-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 511px) 100vw, 511px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-50329\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Awww, it&#8217;s OK buddy.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Given this experience, I try to have sympathy for those who make foolish remarks.

What it did not identify as a catalyst, however, was a lack of public funding.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s certainly no shortage of funding at America\u2019s largest abortion provider: last year, Planned Parenthood received over <a title=\"Planned Parenthood receives record amount of taxpayer support\" href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2013\/01\/08\/planned-parenthood-receives-record-amount-taxpayer-support\/\" target=\"_blank\">half a billion<\/a> dollars in federal money.

Has the extra cash helped to protect vulnerable women? Denise Fairbanks\u00a0seems to feel otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Fairbanks alleged in <a title=\"Planned Parenthood Forced to Settle Suit, Failed to Report Child Rape\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lifenews.com\/2012\/09\/21\/planned-parenthood-forced-to-settle-suit-failed-to-report-child-rape\/\" target=\"_blank\">a lawsuit<\/a> that she was brought to Planned Parenthood for an involuntary abortion by her incestuous father. Although she claimed to have explicitly informed clinic staff of what had happened, Planned Parenthood\u2019s employees simply aborted her baby and then turned her back over to the abuser.<\/p>\n<p>The stepdaughters of <a title=\"Denver lawsuit accuses abortion clinic of not reporting rape of 13-year-old\" href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2014\/jul\/11\/denver-lawsuit-accuses-abortion-clinic-not-reporti\/?page=all\" target=\"_blank\">Timothy Smith<\/a> and <a title=\"California Planned Parenthood Made Abortion Referral, Didn't Report Abuse\" href=\"http:\/\/archive.lifenews.com\/state3469.html\" target=\"_blank\">Gary Cross<\/a> have a similar story&#8211;both were sent to Planned Parenthood to cover up the abuse they suffered.

That gets even more disturbing when you consider the evidence compiled by Dr. Kawaljeet Anand at the University of Tennessee: his research suggests that a fetus can <a title=\"Small survivors: How the disputed science of fetal pain is reshaping abortion law\" href=\"http:\/\/m.deseretnews.com\/article\/865585688\/The-disputed-science-of-fetal-pain.html\" target=\"_blank\">experience pain<\/a> at just 20 weeks.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Judge: Planned Parenthood Rushed Abortion on Sexually Abused Teen\" href=\"http:\/\/www.lifenews.com\/2010\/12\/08\/state-5726\/\" target=\"_blank\">These cases<\/a> are consistent with the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.liveaction.org\/traffick\/\" target=\"_blank\"> damning footage<\/a> Live Action has shot at Planned Parenthood facilities. In 2011, volunteers with hidden cameras went to clinics and presented themselves as sex traffickers using underage prostitutes. Time and again, the volunteers encountered staff members who were willing to lend a hand, with one employee offering to arrange involuntary abortions on girls who \u201c<a title=\"Perth Amboy, NJ Planned Parenthood Full Footage Part 1 of 2 \" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=riX50sOhAyk\" target=\"_blank\">can\u2019t speak English<\/a>\u201d and \u201c<a title=\"Perth Amboy, NJ Planned Parenthood Full Footage Part 2 of 2 \" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=uj2XeLPRjns\" target=\"_blank\">won\u2019t know what\u2019s going on<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Planned Parenthood hasn&#8217;t just failed to prevent predatory abortions&#8211;apparently it can\u2019t even provide sanitary conditions. In 2013, two nurses, Joyce Vasikonis and Jayne Mitchell-Werbrich, <a title=\"A meat-market style of assembly line abortions: Nurses quit Planned Parenthood because of 'dangerous and dirty work conditions and risk of AIDS'\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-2307143\/A-meat-market-style-assembly-line-abortions-Nurses-quit-Planned-Parenthood-dangerous-dirty-work-conditions.html\" target=\"_blank\">spoke publicly<\/a> about the \u201cmeat-market\u201d atmosphere they witnessed while working for Planned Parenthood of Delaware. Some of the lowlights included unwashed operating tables, unsterilized instruments, and an \u201cassembly line\u201d attitude towards performing abortions.<\/p>\n<p>Given the crushingly depressive nature of these facts, you might be wondering if I have anything positive to add. Well, if you&#8217;ve found yourself unexpectedly pregnant, then I have some good news: there are alternatives to having Planned Parenthood convert your baby into <a title=\"Here's the blood\" href=\"http:\/\/herestheblood.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">medical waste<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Sites like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adoptimist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Adoptimist.com<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.parentprofiles.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Parentprofiles.com <\/a>feature hopeful couples who are eager to give your child a loving home, while the volunteers at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.optionline.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Optionline.org<\/a> can help you find <a title=\"Care Net\" href=\"https:\/\/www.care-net.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">pregnancy care<\/a> resources in your area. Finally, the group <a href=\"http:\/\/www.standupgirl.com\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\">StandUpGirl <\/a>provides a place online where you can connect with women who have been in similar situations.<\/p>\n<p>And, if you\u2019re not impressed with what your tax dollars are subsidizing, you\u2019re far from alone. Live Action has established a petition calling for Congress to end its annual subsidy of Planned Parenthood; you can sign it <a title=\"PLANNED PARENTHOOD EXPOSED\" href=\"http:\/\/plannedparenthoodexposed.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, along with more evidence of the abortion lobby\u2019s corruption.
