Planned Parenthood Abortion Case Study
A pastor in Tennessee who is outspoken about his opposition to abortion is fighting back after receiving thousands of “thank you” letters for donations to abortion giant Planned Parenthood which were made in his name.
On Feb. 28, The Christian Post reported about Global Vision Bible Church pastor Greg Locke’s outrage over the “thank you” cards he received from Planned Parenthood for donations that other people including someone named Christa Ginsberg from Houston have made in his name. The Tennessee pastor found this to be strange since he is very outspoken about his Biblical stand on abortion and called the move a waste of both time and money.
“Don't ever send me anymore nonsense from Planned Parenthood. There has never been an organization

    Komen for the Cure stopping its funding of Planned Parenthood, the public’s information of the situation was based only on Planned Parenthood’s side of the story. Planned Parenthood utilized its crisis communication plan and quickly took to mass media and social media to criticize Susan G. Komen. The decision to stop funding to Planned Parenthood was, in fact, justifiable by Susan G. Komen, as the controversy over Planned Parenthood’s federal investigation presented a real threat to other organizations like SGK that were associated with it. The way Komen thought that they could avoid any backlash by not issuing any press release and remaining mute for days after the story broke shows incompetence at the highest levels of Komen’s organization. Transparency and openness in the form of an initial press release, a justification of the decision, and participation in the ongoing coverage of the decision would have gone further to maintain the organization’s…

    Sandra Day O’Connor is probably best known for being the first female U.S. Supreme Court Justice. She served on the Court as an associate justice from 1981 until her retirement in 2006. After graduating third in her class from Stanford Law School, she stayed in California where she had a difficult time finding a job because of the bias against female attorneys. After working for the San Mateo county attorney for free, she was hired as deputy county attorney. In 1954, O’Connor moved to Germany and worked as a civilian attorney for the U.S. Army. Three years later, O’Connor and her husband moved to Arizona, where she opened her own law practice. Soon after, she was hired as Assistant Attorney General. In 1969, she began her political career when…

    There is an evangelical preacher on television that goes by the name of Reverend Terry. She appears to be in her early fifties, and features a coiffure of which it has been said that it cannot be mussed, only broken. Reverend Terry is energetic and folksy, and uses a style of preaching modeled on early Miltion Berle. When her audiences are shown in reaction shots, they are almost always laughing. As a consequence, it would be difficult to distinguish them from audiences, say, at the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas, except for the fact that they have a slightly cleaner, more wholesome look. Reverend Terry tries to persuade them, as well as those "at home," to change their ways by finding Jesus Christ. To help her do this, she offers a "prosperity Campaign Kit," which appears to have a dual purpose: As it brings one nearer to Jesus, it also provides advice on how to increase one 's bank account. This makes her followers extremely happy and confirms their predisposition to believe that prosperity is the true aim of religion. Perhaps God disagrees. As of this writing, Reverend Terry has been obliged to declare bankruptcy and temporarily halt her ministrations.…

    Planned Parenthood is a public health clinic that provides sex ed, birth control, abortion, and plenty of other services. The program is constantly under constant attack for being a waste of government funding and supporting abortions which are considered immoral by a large chunk of America. But Joseph E. Potter and Kari White argue that Planned Parenthood shouldn’t be defunded by Congress because of how negative the outcomes are that have been brought about in the past. Potter and White convince others by using rhetorical devices such as statistics and anecdotes.…

    Planned Parenthood Summary

    Planned Parenthood itself isn’t necessarily the problem, but the people that oppose it. Christian Policy Analysist, Sarah Torre, has many things to say on the issue of Planned Parenthood, although she doesn’t necessarily try to see it from a side other than hers. While reflecting upon rumors about Planned Parenthood selling tissue and body parts of unborn babies, Torre presents that government funding needs to be cut entirely from the organization. She supports her argument by making claims such as Planned Parenthood has enough money, and that there are enough other places for women to get the care and services provided there. Being the leading abortion provider in the US is the authors top reason, however, for prompting her “defund Planned Parenthood” campaign, even though abortions only make up about 3% of all services provided. She claims it is immoral for taxpayers, especially those who are against abortion, to be required to pay for an affiliation that provides the very thing they are so much against. The fact seems to be forgotten that although not everybody believes that healthcare, such as programs provided by the Affordable Care Act, are not approved or liked by everyone. Even so, everybody has to pay taxes that fund these programs, and really how is it different from taxpayers money going to Planned Parenthood? Although she is a woman, Torre seems to have forgotten the battles waged in order for women to have free reign of their own bodies, including the right to choose whether or not they should abort a baby that is unwanted. American’s in general need to realize that women should not be dictated by men, or other women for that matter, no matter where they are coming from. Opinions are not always wanted, and just because someone believes something does not make it right for them to force their beliefs onto other people. Americans need to have…

    When people think of reproductive health care centers their mind automatically jumps to the name Planned Parenthood. Since its founding in 1916 by Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood has amounted to a number of people rallying both for and against them. The fight for Planned Parenthood has never completely been resolved, and even now the issue of federally- funding Planned Parenthood is an issue discussed at large when deciding who to elect to represent our country for the next four to eight years. People advocating for the funding of Planned Parenthood by the federal government are doing something that is rightfully so. It should not be an issue whether or not Planned Parenthood should be funded or not. The question that asks whether it should…

    Most prominently, PPFA clinics offer affordable birth control, Pap smears for screening cervical cancer, life-saving abortions, breast exams, and STD tests to women, men, and young people alike. In the 100 years since nurse Margaret Sanger created the organization, the growth and expansion of Planned Parenthood, originally called the American Birth Control League, is testament to thes success and growing need for accessible reproductive health services in the United States (Alter). The organization has become practically ubiquitous as, following the current trend, 1 in every 5 American women will utilize the services offered by Planned Parenthood at some point in her life (Ernst). This is possible, according to the official PPFA website, through “56 independent local affiliates and 650 clinics currently in operation around the country to provide access to quality healthcare and educational services” (“Planned Parenthood at a Glance”). These clinics should receive government funding in order to continue serving the fundamental health care needs of the people, the same mission the organization has upheld since its founding in the…
