In Parshas Lech-Lecha, God promises a world populated with 100 million Jews. This promise remains unfulfilled. A history of genocide against Jews and decades of abortion homicide by Jews have taken their toll.

Parshas Bereshit begins our annual Torah reading cycle and a journey towards God awareness and spiritual restoration.

The Festival of Sukkot reminds us that God gives us life, food and shelter.

Bloodshed from legal abortion in Israel will continue despite peace deal

Parshas Ha’azinu summarizes Torah’s main theme. Life works only when God leads and we follow happily and faithfully.

Choose life commands us to optimize the growth and development of unborn human beings to ensure our future and to respect all human life as made in the image of God.

Our biblical history teaches us that giving birth and adoption are much better choices than child sacrifice after rape and incest. Recent research and testimonies from women who have been sexually assaulted underscore the need to understand the issue more fully so that everyone involved can make safe, life saving, long term solutions.

It is not compassionate and merciful to put women through the emotional, psychological, and physical horror of abortion

Permissive views of abortion in Judaism for maternal mental illness deny life to our most vulnerable family members based on primitive stories about mental health challenges. These views disregard a mother’s mental anguish after her child’s demise and offer no healing opportunity afterward. They ignore supportive and therapeutic interventions that alleviate a mother’s mental problems and safeguard her baby’s life.

We know that abortion is the deliberate violent destruction of an unborn baby. We know that doing this hurts mothers and fathers in many ways. Accordingly, we provide moral and practical support that saves the baby and parents from harm as we would help parents of a toddler find life saving solutions to their living problems.
