Church seeks to build ‘National Pro Life Memorial’ in Wichita

A Wichita church is hoping to raise millions of dollars to construct a National Pro Life Memorial and International Life Center.

The center will be built on land at Meridian and 37th North that has been donated for the center, said Mark Holick, pastor of Spirit One Christian Ministry.

“We’re just in the beginning” of fundraising efforts, Holick said Monday. “We haven’t raised anything.”

Organizers envision “a place of repentance, mediation and healing,” according to a brochure on the project. Plans include an exact replica of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem and memorial gardens.

1. "church" + "raise money" = fleece the flock....will they honor the millions killed

in the name of their religion?

2. Another life begins at conception, ends at birth group.

3. Why Wichita?

Obviously, to celebrate their success in the War On Women, their victory in the battle for control over what women can do and cannot do.

8. That's where that sick sob shot Dr. Tiller to death in church.

And thus was able the shut down one of only two clinics doing late term (i.e. life of mother) abortions--and the only abortion clinic in Wichita.

[Archae]

10. Bingo.

And now their "martyr for Jesus" is in jail.

[Blue Owl]

4. I think "Anti-Choice Memorial" has a nicer ring to it.

Because at the end of the day, we all know the GOP wingnuts aren't really pro-life.

5. There are big bucks in religion. I had a friend that had a friend making zillions off of

religious people. He supplied religious stores with the stuff they sell. Big markups, cheap manufacturing and lots of profits. He was also into New Age supplies too, that was a big money maker. Flocks are easy to fleece, and also to employ mind control with ... the politicians know that well.

6. They need to include a memorial with the names of all of the Iraqis killed by their War pResident

in the deal made with ChurchMart End Timers for ownership of SCOTUS & an end to Roe v. Wade.

[Permanut]

7. Disgusting....

One of the 27 reasons church attendance has dropped over the last fifty years, and continues to drop - except at the carnival show megachurches.

Disclaimer: I am a member of a church that is 100% pro-choice.

[SunSeeker]

9. Fucking terrorists.

[dmr]

11. If this is so important to them, why not use the money to help

those babies - born & unborn? Why not?

Oh, I get it, they'd rather make an 'in your face' point than work toward anything sensible.

Disgusting.

By the way, they are NOT pro life.

I'm pro life. Pro-life, pro-women, pro-choice!

[Dont call me Shirley]

12. Stupid freaks never consider what the lives of the unwanted turn out to be. PURE HELL!

[Puzzledtraveller]

24. Were you unwanted?

[Iliyah]

13. But murder is ok

after you are born if you do not obey their ideology. How pro-life huh.

Praise the Lorrrreeeee

[Crow73]

18. This is about your privacy.

I know I will get bitched at for trolling you troll, but let me just point out this.

Roe v. Wade is about privacy rights.

No murder, just your right over your body. Think of it this way.
No Roe v. Wade the next time you go get a check up you could lose a kidney because some 1% douche needs it.


Its about life right so that doesn't change anything for you huh?

[SoutherDem]

14. If that is how they want to waste/spend their money got for it.

But why do I think if someone wanted to build a National Pro-Choice Museum there would be protests in the streets.

Or maybe a national We got them born now fuck them museum. That is really the Republican way.

[longship]

15. Instead, it ought to be Dr. George Tiller, supporter of women's rights.

Wichita. I lived there for 18 years and saw it going from moderate Dem stronghold (Dems held the state legislature under Michael "Tom" Sawyer in that era and most of the governorships.)

Alas, we saw seeds of the future when Dan Glickman lost to religious loony Tood Tiahrt. Since I left there in the mid 90's things have slid to the right.

However, I was always proud to be a Democrat while I lived there. Sedgwick County (Wichita) always had a wonderful organization. I was proud to serve as an officer in that organization.

Go KS Dems!

[crunch60]

21. Why can't we do this, those of us who are pro choice, organize a museum to Dr. Tiller

and other Doctor's who have been murdered for their beliefs in women's rights. What are the Democrats and Liberals doing to further our cause? The only thing I see and hear is how wacky loony. and bat shit crazy the right wingers evangelicals are. It doesn't seem liberals know how to strike back at them in a very effective way.
We had great leadership when we were fighting for Roe v Wade, and now it is being eroded on a grand scale, every day. Kudos to women like Sandra Fluke.

More activism is what we need, on a very large well organized scale. Name calling isn't enough.

[Firebrand Gary]

16. A national monument in honor of denying women the right to control her own body? nuff said nt

[Crow73]

17. Orphan Drive or stop chicks from doing "it"???

So....

Oh look we a have group of nit-wits at it again. How wonderful....
Say they had half a brain between them, wouldn't they be fundraising orphanages? Instead of sinking millions into a statue and aborted baby fun-house?


What I am saying is, they haven't had any luck with the whole abstinence only, hell their spokes model Bristol Palin has a kid out of wedlock. Wouldn't you think concentrating on corrupting the youth should be their goal? They could have orphanages nation wide home schooling a new generation of nit-wits and fascists.

Just saying...

19. More nutters.

If they really gave a sh#t about people dying, they'd be in the forefront of fighting for single-payer health care, which would save the lives of the 100,000 people who die in the U.S. each year due to lack of health care. That would save a lot of babies, children, teens, adults, elderly, and that would actually be pro-life, not their false posturing.

[JCMach1]

20. OH, hell no!

[Heywood J]

22. Wichita?

I expected to see this guy on the memorial.

[pstokely]

25. He's in Topeka, not Wichita

nt

[KansDem]

23. They could put it in the front lawn of the Koch Bros. building!

Yeah! Yeah! Whoohoo!!!
