Man Facing Jail For Hosting Home Bible Study | Todd Starnes

Man Facing Jail For Hosting Home Bible Study |Todd Starnes.

Pastor Michael Salman has been harassed by Phoenix City officials for years, concerning Bible studies which were held on his 4.6 acre property, with as many as 20 people in attendance.

After Salman built a two thousand square foot outbuilding the City of Phoenix is planning to jail him for zoning violations.
It would have been OK to use that building as a game room as it had been described in the building permits. Bible studies are not considered suitable entertainment activity so the rules which apply to public businesses and churches have been brought to bear on Salman. He faces 60 days in jail, $12180 in fines and 3 years probation.

Ectopic to the MAX

Phoenix woman gives birth to baby she carried in abdomen.

Nicolette Soto was able to carry an ectopic pregnancy and deliver a live baby  at 32 weeks.  The delivery of Azelan Cruz Perfecto , weighing in at 2 lb, 14 oz,  occurred at Banner Good Samaritan hospital in Phoenix, AZ.

This kind of success is unexpected, and most women will have the embryo  (with surrounding structures)  removed, or  have the embryo killed using methotrexate.  Under most circumstances of ectopic pregnancy,  a rupture will occur which could result in the death of the mother.

The article does not describe well the location of the fetus in this case.  Here’s the quote:

“Doctors said the pregnancy is rare.  They were still determining where the egg first implanted itself and where it grew outside the uterus, Holloway said.

Surgeons believe Soto had a corneal (sic) pregnancy, where the egg grew just outside the uterus. The area is surrounded by walls that are not supposed to stretch enough to accommodate a baby, said Rodney Edwards, one of Soto’s surgeons at Good Samaritan.”

If you want to learn more about the supposed  location of this fetus within the mom, google CORNUAL pregnancy. 

Perhaps technology will one day permit  routinely moving ectopic embryos to a safer location in the uterus,  allowing them to continue to develop.

American Life League Unhappy with Sr. Carol Keehan

~ Pharmer

……..with good reason.  Sister Carol heads up the Catholic Health Care Association (CHA), and she got a really cool pen from Obama for supporting his abortifacient health care plan.

ALL has been digging hard, and found the family tree that ties CHA with the owners of St. Joseph’s Hospital in Phoenix, AZ, which is no longer Catholic, for doing an abortion and getting tangled with public funded “family planning” activities.

Check it out.

Reminding Sr. Carol Keehan, that pregnancy with pulmonary hypertension is no longer incompatible with life due to the work of one Dr. Dianne Zwicke.

Bishop revokes Phoenix hospital’s ‘Catholic’ status

Bishop revokes Phoenix hospital’s ‘Catholic’ status.

He actually did it.    Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted stripped St. Joseph’s Medical Center, in Phoenix  of its Catholic affiliation.  This came after a scandal in 2009, concerning a widely publicized abortion which took place there.   That issue had already been  addressed, but  St. Joseph’s affiliation with the Mercy Care Plan , which provides care through the Arizona  state medicaid program,  required it to offer contraceptive counseling and other services antithetical to Catholic teachings.   This contractual arrangement is said to be the tipping point to cause the dissolution of the Catholic affiliation

Mass may no longer be said at the hospital, and the Blessed Sacrament is to be removed from the Chapel.

Watch the changes which occur at St. Joseph’s   in the aftermath of this “divorce” from Church affiliation.    Will the hospital attempt to re-affiliate, or will it rely upon a closer relationship with the government for survival.  Certainly the loss of Catholic affiliation will affect private donations to the Medical Center.

“Walmart Derangement Syndrome”??

~ Pharmer

Just Blame It on Walmart and Sue Em!!!!

This is brought to Pharmer’s attention by a comment by “Firmworm”,at Newsbusters 15:05- 3/20, who supplied the title, and  who found no Walmart store in this location on Google maps.  The Bell Road store  is a good distance away.

The Text of this article says:”PHOENIX – A group of people were seriously injured when they were attacked by a swarm of bees in north Phoenix.
It happened at about 8 p.m. at a Wal-Mart store in the area of 3rd Avenue and Bell Road”.

However the associated video describes the attack occurring as the ladies walked along the street near the intersection of 3rd and Bell in Phoenix Arizona.
Not at a Walmart store at all.    Also the bees nest was found attached to a building which was  obviously not a part of a Walmart business.

See for yourself how far the bee attack is from the Walmart store: zoom into store #20, and check where 3rd street and Bell is.
