Through The Courts

From the Steps of the Lincoln Memorial

October 27, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

Abraham Lincoln said it:

“I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free.”
(House Divided Speech, June 16, 1858, upon accepting the Illinois Republican Party nomination for U.S. Senate)

And can our nation continue to exist today, half choosing life for preborn children and half choosing death for preborn children?

Lincoln spoke prophetically in his speech. The poem “Prayer for the Preborn Child” (see below) speaks prophetically to us today. The word “Nuclear” that we hear in the news appears in the poem that was first published 39 years ago.

The Lincoln Memorial is our nation’s monument to “EQUALITY”. From its steps this January, we need to make the case for the equal humanity and personhood of the preborn child.

The Foundation for the Supreme Court’s Way Forward

October 10, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

Many are now calling upon the Supreme Court to assert the unalienable right to life of preborn children from the moment of conception. Unalienable rights, recited in the Declaration of Independence (the charter of our nation) are not subject to discretionary review by state legislatures.

We realize, of course, that the court would need an actual case before it.(Such as a challenge by Planned Parenthood to the new Oklahoma statute outlawing abortion from conception except in cases of rape or incest.)

The court must also have the proper foundation upon which to base their decision. That foundation is NATURAL LAW – the ‘Law above the law’. Natural Law has always been with us, but courses in Natural Law were dropped from the law school curriculums long before any of the current Supreme Court justices attended law school.

They most likely had no course in natural law. They were trained to base their decisions on past Supreme Court precedent, but they were overturning precedent (Roe v. Wade). So they turned to the states and essentially said “You figure this out. You are on your own from here.”

The court’s incomplete decision in Dobb’s will result in 50 states coming up with 50 different state laws on abortion – some granting preborn children a reprieve from the death penalty; some imposing the death penalty.

There is needed a Law above the law and that is NATURAL LAW, to guide the states and the Supreme Court. The Law of Nature and Nature’s God commands: “Thou Shalt Not Kill”!

Without realizing it, the conservative majority of the court in overturning Roe did so based upon Natural Law but lacking training in it or full knowledge of Natural Law, they were without the understanding to go the next step and point to the foundational principles of Natural Law in our nation’s Declaration of Independence, based as it was upon Natural Law (The Laws of Nature and Nature’s God), as authority for the court to declare the unalienable right to life of all preborn children from the moment of conception.

“The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.” (opening words of the Declaration of Independence)
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are CREATED equal, that they are endowed by their CREATOR with certain UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, that among these are LIFE, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness…”
The Declaration of Independence

Professor Brabner-Smith, exceedingly modest, possessed a towering intellect. He could have and should have been a Supreme Court Justice. He was the recognized authority on Natural Law.

We want you to have (and wish the Court could have) his timely essays on Natural Law which offer the “light at the end of the Roe Tunnel” we still find ourselves in. You will find it posted below.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

P.S. The coat of arms of John Brabner-Smith as well as the sketch of his life (with humorous anecdotes) is taken from a booklet prepared by his wife Daniella Brabner-Smith for a surprise 92^nd birthday party for John in 1992 at the University Club in Washington, DC. – a gala and a fun evening. Professor Brabner-Smith was such a humble and modest man that when he walked in to his own surprise party, he thought it was for someone else.

Undoing Devilish Mischief

September 13, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

How do we account for the fact that we live in this blessed land of liberty where half the people want to kill babies and the other half wants to save them?

The devil continues to spread evil in the world. The seemingly endless lines of white marble crosses above the beaches of Normandy, France, where the allies stormed ashore on D-Day, 1944, and the lines of white marble crosses as far as the eyes can see at Arlington National Cemetery in Washington remind us of the lives that were given to push back Hitler’s evil tide that had overrun Europe and threatened the free world.

And now, the devil has seemingly entered into this modern day Hitler (Putin) who is attacking a free Ukraine, and who, like Hitler before him, is killing even his own countrymen who dare oppose him or threaten his power. Recently, the president of Russia’s largest oil and gas company, who had opposed Putin’s attack on Ukraine “fell” from his 6^th story hospital window to his death.

In this age of intercontinental ballistic missiles and now hypersonic missiles, with Putin in the east and the Chinese Communist leaders saber rattling in the west, the devil is setting the stage for another World War.

ONLY GOD CAN STAND AGAINST THIS. Now, more than ever, we need the King of Heaven’s Armies on our side. We need someone, such as Franklin Graham, to bring us together on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial this January at the time of the annual March for Life in Washington and lay out our case before God for preborn children as equal members of the community of man created in the Holy Image of God – and in so doing, appeal to all state legislatures to use the constitutional freedom the Supreme Court has now given them to honor the Commandment Thou Shalt Not Kill.

When President Ronald Reagan was about to be sworn in for his second term of office he let it be known that his mother’s Bible on which his hand would be placed to take his oath of office would be opened to 2 Chronicles 7:14 because he thought it was a message to our nation at this time: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (II Chronicles 7:14).

We need repentance and prayer to heal our land and assure God’s continued mercy and grace and continued providential protective care of America.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

When the Well Runs Dry

September 12, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

We don’t miss the water until the well runs dry.

Queen Elizabeth was the last great leader of what has been called “The Greatest Generation”. She has been the heart and soul of England for decades. She stood with her cane and invited her 15^th prime minister to ‘form a government’ 48 hours before her death.

When she became queen in 1952, Winston Churchhill was the prime minister, he having been Britain’s fearless leader of World War II.

She had great respect for our statesman, Ronald Reagan, who was 16 years her senior. She invited him to ride horseback with her when, as U.S. president, Reagan visited England.

Queen Elizabeth was indeed the last great leader of “the greatest generation” to pass from our midst at age 96. Curiously, on the day of her death, it was reported that a rainbow appeared over Buckingham Palace, something they say does not happen that often in London. In Balmoral, Scotland, where she died, a double rainbow appeared.

Indeed, we don’t miss the water until the well runs dry.

She was a person of great faith and inner strength; that strength being sourced in her personal faith in her Creator. Tears will flow in England the day of her funeral and eyes will be misty the world over.

Think of the difference one solitary life can make! God knew her before she was born, just as he knew each of you. He created her just as He created each of you. He had a plan for her life just as He has a plan for your life. God watched from heaven as His plan for her life unfolded.

She was shy and thought she was too young to assume the responsibilities and duties of queen when she was called upon to do so in her twenties. God knew she was not too young. God never gives us a job to do that He does not give us someone to help us with it. She found herself surrounded with her father’s (the king) trusted and experienced advisors within the palace and with the likes of Winston Churchill in the government (with whom she enjoyed a close relationship for the rest of Churchill’s life).

God gave her a long life, the longest rule (70 years) in Britain’s 1000 year history going back to William the Conqueror, and when she was finally called home, rainbows were left behind as her soul, escorted by God’s angels, rose heavenward.

We must pause, as Britain mourns her passing, and think on these things.

Think of the difference one solitary life can make. God knew her before she was born. He had a plan for her life. Think of the loss, one at a time, of the 60 million preborn children in this country alone. God knew each of them before they were aborted, aborting God’s plans for their lives.

How many God-given leaders have we lost to abortion which is an abomination to God? We have a lot of politicians anymore. We have no statesmen in the world.

The Law the Court Forgot

August 29, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

Is it courage the Supreme Court lacks, or is it full knowledge and understanding of “Natural Law”? Natural Law has not been taught in law schools since the early 1900’s when my own grandfather attended and graduated from Yale Law School in 1915.

Professor John W. Brabner-Smith, founder of the International School of Law in Washington, DC (now the George Mason University School of Law) graduated from Yale Law School a few years after my grandfather, and was teaching his own students in the late 1960’s and 1970’s about Natural Law.

Our forefathers were familiar with Natural Law and our nation’s Declaration of Independence is based upon it.

“The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
(opening words of the Declaration of Independence)

Professor Brabner-Smith explained in his writings that it was by appealing to Natural Law that our forefathers were able to justify our separation from Great Britain and assume a position among the great powers of the earth.

“This Declaration based legal existence upon “the laws of nature and of nature’s God,” in order for the now united colonies to take a place “among the powers of the earth.” This was the foundation of all international states…”
(The Recovery of Natural Law” subsection The Foundation of Nation-States)

This same Natural Law guarantees, just as set forth in the Declaration of Independence (the charter of our nation), the unalienable right to life of every preborn child from conception.

“we hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are CREATED equal, that they are endowed by their CREATOR with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness…”
Declaration of Independence

Unalienable rights cannot be alienated (taken away by any king, court or legislature). An unalienable right cannot be protected by one American state legislature and taken away by another state legislature. Indeed, Professor Brabner-Smith shows that the denial of unalienable rights by the states was originally unthinkable:

“This [natural] law was accepted by the legislature of each of the states AS THEIR BASIC LAW, as well as that of the United States.”
(Rediscovery of Natural Law, section on Complementarity by John W. Brabner-Smith)

The conservative majority of the court voted to overturn Roe, but left preborn children to the mercy of state legislatures. They failed to contemplate the full impact of Natural Law upon themselves as a court, or comprehending it, chose to ignore it.

Giving the judges the ‘benefit of the doubt’, let’s assume that while they had undoubtedly heard the term ‘Natural Law’, they were not used to working with it and therefore did not recognize the instances where the Natural Law was implicit in the Constitution (an outline of how a just government should function) nor did they look back to the Declaration of Independence (the charter which made explicit the Natural Law upon which a just government is based).

Professor Brabner-Smith said it:

“The purpose of a Constitution is to provide the best form of government to support applicable Natural Law and the unalienable rights of each individual….”
(Essay on Natural Law, page 2)

Professor Brabner-Smith’s wisdom is instructive to us at this time in our history. The 1973 Roe ruling showed that the U.S. Supreme Court had forgotten the purpose of the Constitution. The 2022 Dobb ruling throwing the issue back to the states shows that the Court has also forgotten that from the beginning “This [natural] law was accepted by the legislature of each of the states as their basic law.” (Rediscovery of Natural Law, section on Complementarity by John W. Brabner-Smith)

In composing these recent letters to you, I have been consulting Professor Brabner-Smith’s wisdom and teachings on Natural Law as he was the recognized expert on it in recent times.

Natural Law needs to be taught in the Law Schools again and should be taken up in the Christian Law Schools immediately. In the meantime, our job is to educate our Supreme Court judges by educating the nation on the full impact of Natural Law:

The Law that never changes.

The Law that is the same yesterday, today and forever.

The Law that undergirds and holds aloft the unalienable

Right to Life of preborn children from conception created

in the Holy Image of God

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

R. Martin Palmer

Could Have…Should have…

August 23, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

In overturning Roe, the Supreme Court went to great lengths in the 98 page opinion to point out that abortion was a crime in every state at the time of Roe (1973). The court listed each and every state and a brief summary of that state’s law making abortion a crime.

Thus, even before the advent of ultrasound which put ‘windows on the womb’ giving Supreme Court judges themselves the earliest pictures of their children and grandchildren, the states were all respecting and honoring the Commandment “THOU SHALT NOT KILL”!

Roe took what was a crime in all the states and turned it into a supposed ‘constitutional right’ by the time the sun came up the next morning.

In overturning Roe, the court could have, and should have, pointed to modern technology (sonography), medical science (in vitro fertilization), and prenatal surgery (operating in utero to drain fluid from the brain of a hydro-cephalic preborn child or to correct a heart anomaly in a preborn child), making the preborn child the ‘intrauterine patient’.

In overturning Roe, the court could have, and should have, taken the next logical step as the guardian of our rights and liberties in the Declaration of Independence and declared that preborn children share equally in its protections:

“all men are CREATED equal, that they are endowed by their CREATOR with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness…”

The court had the power to do this, but it lacked the courage. The U.S. Supreme Court had the power to set preborn children free, but they did not. They handed the problem to the states, hoping that some of them would have the courage to set preborn children free.

The court had the power to stop the killing of preborn children, but it did not.

Pontius Pilate had the power to stop the killing of Jesus, but he did not. He lost the courage, fearing rioting of the people. Then, having ordered Christ’s crucifixion, he took a bowl and washed his hands of innocent blood.

“When Pilate saw that he was accomplishing nothing, but that instead a riot was breaking out, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd.” (Matthew 27:24)

The U.S. Supreme Court has taken down Pontius Pilate’s bowl, that the states may allow the execution of preborn children if they so desire, and then washed their hands of innocent blood. The devil uses cowardice effectively to accomplish his purpose.

The time has come to take the case for the equal humanity and personhood of preborn children above the head of the Supreme Court by taking it to God Himself from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial this coming January.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

R. Martin Palmer

P.S. Those members of the court that overturned Roe do not lack wisdom. They lack courage.

Those members of the court who were against overturning Roe fail to understand that the ‘fear of God is the beginning of wisdom’ (Psalm 111:10).

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do His Commandments: His praise endureth for ever.” (Psalm 111:10).

God commands Thou Shalt Not Kill.

Forever On The Throne?

August 18, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

Truth forever on the scaffold; wrong forever on the throne.” (From the poem This Present Crisis by James Russell Lowell)

The conservative majority of the U.S. Supreme Court that overturned Roe know that life begins like everything else – at the beginning. In overturning Roe, they could have gone on to say that “all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are the right to life and liberty”. They could have done so quoting the Declaration of Independence, our nation’s Charter.

Inalienable rights cannot be taken away or alienated by any state legislature or the U.S. Congress. Unfortunately, the court ignored the truth of our own Declaration of Independence – the truth of our being – so as to placate the forces of darkness that seek to keep truth on the scaffold and wrong forever on the throne.

They said that the rights to life and liberty of preborn children were dependent upon individual states. Power to protect the lives of preborn children was given to the states. Power to allow the killing of preborn children was given to the states. Someone has counted and the states are aligned 26 for life; 24 for the death of preborn children. Instead of America again being a ‘light on a hill for all the world to see’, the light is flickering on and off. It is a distress signal for ourselves and the world.

The devil has loved death and dying from the beginning. Storm clouds of war and death are growing in the East (Russia/Ukraine and Europe) and in the West (China/Taiwan). Dr. Lejeune said it:

“If big Russian learns it is okay to kill little Russian (abortion), and big American learns it is okay to kill little American, then you are not going to tell big Russian it is not okay to kill big American, and you are not going to tell big American it is not okay to kill big Russian – nuclear war only a few years away.”

It all comes down to the Sanctity of Human Life – Preborn and Born, Children and Adults, Abortion and War (both of which the devil uses to kill) – Preborn, 63+ million since 1973 in our nation alone; Born – an untold number in mankind’s wars, 70 to 85 million in the Second World War alone worldwide.

We recall that the theologian Dr. Francis Schaffer and Surgeon General Koop co-authored the book Whatever Happened to the Human Race? They pointed out that it all began in Germany when it was decided that there was such a thing as a life not worth living (abortion). Then it spread to the handicapped newborns, then handicapped adults, then Gypsies, then the Slavs and then eventually the politically ‘unfit’. The euthanasianists taught the Nazi’s how to build the crematoriums.

The devil will employ the same modus operandi today in an effort to place himself forever on the throne: in the states in which he can keep abortion firmly in place, he will seek to expand it to handicapped newborns. He will also seek to promote and legalize euthanasia in that state.

Prolife people in prolife states are the ‘Keepers of the Spring’. If the Spring becomes polluted, all water that runs from that Spring pollutes the waters that flow below it. Can you imagine a state like Indiana, which outlawed abortion just before the Supreme Court overturned Roe, legalizing euthanasia? Of course not. Indiana is a ‘Keeper of the Spring”.

So where does the prolife movement find itself as we prepare to cross the threshold of the year 2023 with Roe relegated to the ash heap of history? The Supreme Court has done all it’s going to do for another 5o years.

Ideally, we should gather at the Lincoln Memorial this January 22^nd and on the steps thereof, with Lincoln’s seated statue in the background, standing where Dr. Martin Luther King gave his ‘I Have a Dream’ speech, tell of our “DREAM FOR PREBORN CHILDREN”(recognition of the equal humanity and personhood of the preborn child). State by state, their lives must be protected as equal creations of God in His Image and equal members of the Community of Man endowed from conception with the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Speakers such as Vice President Pence could be invited and the eloquent words of President Trump in his last 2019 State of the Union address could be read by Jeannine Mancini:

“Let us work together to build a culture that cherishes innocent life. And let us reaffirm a fundamental truth: all children – born and unborn – are made in the HOLY IMAGE OF GOD. “

Governors and key legislators from states now protecting preborn life may be invited to attend and speak. A prolife vision for America could be laid out inspiring other states to come on board. Unlike our March to the Supreme Court for 48 years, there is no need for a police presence on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial as there was on the steps of the Supreme Court. There is nothing to protect inside the Lincoln Memorial except a cold marble statue.

We could first gather on the ellipse as we have in the past, but reverse our line of march and march west to the Temple our nation built to the great Emancipator. Over Lincoln’s seated statue we find these words carved high in the white marble wall above his head:

“In this TEMPLE, as in the hearts of the people for whom he saved the Union, the memory of Abraham Lincoln is enshrined forever.”

Is not the prolife movement invested with the task of saving the Union again? Lincoln reminded us that “a house divided cannot stand” (Illinois Republican State Convention, June 16, 1858). He was quoting Christ (Matt. 12:25, Mk. 3:24).

The world witnessed this splitting and rending apart of our nation at the time of President Trump’s 2019 State of the Union speech in which he stood up for preborn children causing one side of the aisle to give him a standing ovation while the other side remained seated on their hands. We are fighting for the soul and the survival of America.

President Trump’s exact words in his 2019 State of the Union speech to a joint session of Congress were as follows:

“There could be no greater contrast to the beautiful image of a mother holding her infant child than the chilling displays our Nation saw in recent days. Lawmakers in New York cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth. These are living, feeling, beautiful babies who will never get the chance to share their love and dreams with the world. And then, we had the case of the Governor of Virginia where he basically stated he would execute a baby after birth.

To defend the dignity of every person, I am asking the Congress to pass legislation to prohibit the late-term abortion of children who can feel pain in the mother’s womb.

Let us work together to build a culture that cherishes innocent life. And let us reaffirm a fundamental truth: all children – born and unborn – are made in the Holy Image of God. “

A copy of the president’s State of the Union speech is traditionally handed by him to the Speaker of the House, as he comes to the podium. After the speech, the Speaker, Nancy Pelosi, was seen by all on television to take her copy of his State of the Union speech, and holding it aloft, rip it entirely in half from top to bottom! The angst of the Speaker of the House was visually symbolic of our nation’s house divided.

President Ronald Reagan, at the time of his second inaugural let it be known that his mother’s Bible on which he would place his hand to take his oath of office, would be opened to 2 Chronicles 7:14 because he thought it was the message to our nation at this time:

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (II Chronicles 7:14).

—For truly it is God who is forever on the throne. Martin Luther King’s niece, Alveda King, is an ardent defender of life. Perhaps some thought could be given to having her lead the closing prayer reading from II Chronicles 7:14.

Let us keep preborn children and world peace in our prayers!

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

A Real Women’s Health Protection Act

August 9, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

As this letter is written, HR3755 – the so called Women’s Health Protection Act

is being voted on in the U.S. Congress. It is nothing but an underhanded attempt to do an end run around the Supreme Court’s recent mandate to give the states complete autonomy and authority to pass laws – that the U.S. Supreme Court will uphold – protecting the lives of preborn children in their territory. The very title of the democrats’ proposal is deceit and double speak: ‘Women’s Health Protection Act’.

In truth the Women’s Health Protection Act does nothing to protect the lives of preborn women and all preborn children and turns a blind eye to ‘post abortion syndrome’ that affects women who have had an abortion causing depression, and in many cases, suicidal ideation.

In overturning Roe, the court upheld ‘state’s rights’. State’s rights are state’s right and the U.S. Supreme Court will uphold them.

Enclosed is a clearer copy of Dr. Lejeune’s Proposal of Law without my penciled notes thereon. We want you to have this to give to your state representatives and encourage them to submit it to their legislatures for passage in your state.

If they are not familiar with Dr. Lejeune, remind them that he was to the world of genetics as Einstein was to the world of physics. He passed away in Paris at sunrise on Easter morning, 1994, and Pope John Paul II issued a statement commending his life and finding more than coincidence in his passing on Easter morning. The canonization process for his sainthood began shortly thereafter. He is now referred to as ‘venerable’.

As a great scientist, he never viewed science as conflicting with his faith but rather discovered therein an affirmation of his faith. He defined the science of genetics in this way:

“In the beginning there is a message. And this message is life and this message is in life; and if this message is a human message, this life is a human life. And that is all of genetics.”

“It is also the beginning of a very old book: the Gospel according to St. John: ‘In the beginning was the Word’. And it is very comforting to we scientists that it took us only 2,000 years to discover what was there all along – ‘In the beginning was the Logos, the Word’.”

Speaking of the scourge of abortion that has overshadowed our world, Dr. Lejeune had this to say:

“The enemies of life know that to destroy Christian civilization, they must first destroy the family at its weakest point – the child. And among the weakest, they must choose the least protected of all – the child who has never been seen; the child who is not yet known or loved in the usual meaning of the word; who has not yet seen the light of day; who cannot even cry out in distress.”

Speaking of the denatured biology of human embryo experimentation, Dr. Lejeune left us with this incredible insight:

“There remains, however, another question. Our power grows by the day. We are going to make new beings (bacteria, vegetables, animals) by ways other than by natural or artificial selection. By that very fact we are certainly going to

modify the destiny of man before he perhaps modifies himself. I do not

know if we shall be able, during the lifetime of those alive today, to modify

the human brain, but no one can show that this will always be impossible.”

“In short, we are going to become more and more powerful. The biological

bomb is probably more dangerous for humanity than the thermo-nuclear

bomb. Then we will indeed require something to guide us. It will be

necessary to establish or rediscover a term of reference, for who can tell us

whether this will be good or bad? Who will teach us that?” (Is there a natural morality? by Jerome Lejeune in the Linacre Quarterly, Vol. 56, No.1 Feb 1989, p. 29)

“So now we must choose, and we need something which would tell us in every case what to do; some touchstone that would tell us what is good and what is evil. There is a phrase. You know it. If the politicians remember it, they can always make honest laws. If the technicians do not forget it, technology will remain an honest servant to humanity; but if both of them forget it, then you would have to deal with a very denatured biology and there would be A VERY DIM FUTURE FOR MANKIND! This phrase – you know it – it judges everything forever. It simply says, “As you have done unto the least of these, you did it unto me.”

Let us continue to pray for the little ones and for wisdom in getting our state legislatures to counter this mischief in the currently democrat controlled U.S. Congress.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

R. Martin Palmer

P.S. One additional statement of Dr. Lejeune’s comes to mind in light of this modern day Hitler named Putin and his nuclear threats. Also, the struggle is heating up to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. As the President concludes his trip to Israel the week of July 11^th, Putin is scheduled to visit Iran. Dr. Lejeune left us with this wisdom:

“If big American learns it is okay to kill little American, and big Russian learns it is okay to kill little Russian, then you are not going to tell big Russian it is not okay to kill big American, and you are not going to tell big American it is not okay to kill big Russian.” (Dr. Lejeune was speaking about nuclear war.)

As we pray for peace, we need to stop the war on preborn children in our nation state by state.

This is a time to pray in earnest the prayer of 2 Chronicles 7:14:

A Proposal to Give Your State Legislators

August 9, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

Sometimes it is good to review and repeat – especially since the Supreme Court has given the states complete autonomy to pass laws as they wish protecting preborn children within their territory.

As we know, life begins, like everything else, at the beginning. Abortion must be outlawed from the moment of conception (no morning after pill /‘human pesticide’). And the denatured biology of human embryo experimentation must be forbidden.

Dr. Jerome Lejeune, who was to the world of genetics as Einstein was to the world of physics, explained that there is no such thing as ‘living matter’, but rather spirit animates matter.

God knew us before we were born (Jeremiah 1:5). He gives us a soul from the moment of conception. He knows us as a preborn child in the temple of the womb.

“Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.” (Psalm 139:16)

Speaking of the equal humanity and personhood of the preborn child even as a human embryo, Dr. Lejeune put it this way:

“The human embryo is a being, and being human, it is a human being. It is person and not property because it is the only ‘property’ which has the property of building itself.”

What a statement! What wisdom! It is something like Christ would say.

Protecting life in law — Every human being must have equal protection under the law

Enclosed kindly find a copy of a proposal of law authored by Dr. Lejeune, the first line of which reads: “Before the law, each human being is a person, from fertilization until death.”

We cannot improve upon Dr. Lejeune’s wisdom or his succinct proposal of law which should be submitted unaltered to U.S. state legislatures. No geneticist would disagree or would be able to improve upon it.

Remember that the U.S. Supreme Court in Dobb’s said that their respect for a legislature’s judgment will apply even when the laws at issue concern “matters of great social significance and moral substance.” (emphasis added – Dobb’s page 77)

The state of Oklahoma had it right. Even before the Dobb’s case was handed down, Oklahoma outlawed abortion in their state from the moment of conception. The laws of every state need to reflect these truths about the equal humanity and personhood of the preborn child from conception.

As you know, your pro-life group or organization can propose bill drafts and ideas for new and better laws to your state legislators. Dr. Lejeune’s Proposal of Law for the French Senate (enclosed) would make an excellent proposed bill in your state.

The Supreme Court has given the ball back to the people through their elected state representatives. Let’s aggressively take it to the finish line. Please consider taking Dr. Lejeune’s Proposal to your state representative.

Let us pray that America can once again become a shining city on a hill for all the world to see.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

R. Martin Palmer

P.S. Dr. Lejeune wrote the enclosed Proposal of Law to be submitted to the French Senate by Senator M. Bernard Seillier. It comes from the great mind of Dr. Lejeune, is well and succinctly written and it is a model law for any state legislature or for that matter any legislature or parliament in the world. It failed to pass in France back in 1992 only because the French Senate was not respecting the human embryo.

The proposed law is composed of 4 articles.

Article 1 is to ensure that any action, biological or medical has the goal of protecting or restoring the health of the person.

Article 2 addresses the human body as a whole.

Article 3 addresses the denatured biology of human embryo experimentation. In vitro fertilization labs offer discounts to couples undergoing in vitro fertilization if they agree to donate their ‘spare’ embryos to the lab. The lab then sells them to other couples for implantation or they sell them for human embryo experimentation.

Article 4 is to protect the human genome.

Fight Human Pesticide

August 9, 2022 by Martin Palmer Leave a Comment

The front page headline of the Washington Times newspaper of July 7, 2022 read:

“DOCTORS FIGHT BIDEN’S ABORTION PILL PUSH”.

Biden has rightfully condemned Putin’s push to massacre innocents in the Ukraine, yet he pushes to massacre innocents in his own country. The number dwarfs the loss of innocent lives in the Ukraine. It is estimated that presently half of all abortions in the U.S. are done with the ‘morning after pill’. With Biden’s push to lift restrictions and make the abortion pill more widely and readily available, the massacre of innocents will only increase.

Dr. Lejeune called RU486 (the morning after pill) “The world’s first human pesticide”. The states willing to do so need to act to outlaw the use of this human pesticide in their state. The Supreme Court will not strike down such a law because pursuant to the formula in Dobb’s, the state would be acting in a “matter of social significance and moral importance”:

“That respect for a legislature’s judgment applies even when the laws at issue concern matters of great social significance and moral substance.” (emphasis added – Dobb’s page 77)

When we get the new Congress in November, the U.S. Congress needs to outlaw this human pesticide and the Supreme Court similarly will uphold it. The free flow of interstate commerce is no excuse for shipping human pesticide in the mail.

God knew us before we were born (Jeremiah 1:5). The God who gave us life imbues the human soul at the same time (before we were born there was no physical body – God knew the soul).

If the devil’s human pesticide is allowed to ravage our country, millions of innocent souls will be expelled from the ‘temple of the womb’ (as Dr. Lejeune termed it) early on, resulting in their certain loss to mankind and depriving all of us of their God-given talents and gifts.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

P.S. It is important to contact your state legislative representative and have them pass good laws forbidding the use of this human pesticide in your state.

President Biden is attempting to grandstand with executive orders, but when the Supreme Court overturned Roe and gave authority back to the states to outlaw abortion, states’ rights and Supreme Court authority trumps ‘executive orders’.

The principle of INTERPOSITION applies as well. The law dictionary on the desk of any Supreme Court judge defines interposition as follows:

Interposition: The doctrine that a state, in the exercise of its sovereignty, may reject a mandate of the federal government deemed to be unconstitutional or to exceed the powers delegated to the federal government.

This devilish mischief cooked up by the Biden administration must not be allowed to prevail. A state outlawing abortion and forbidding the use, sale, and distribution of the abortion pill within their state will have the full backing of the United States Supreme Court.

Yours very sincerely and respectfully,

Martin Palmer
