BROWN RENEWS CALL FOR DENIAL OF COMMUNION TO BIDEN AFTER HIS STATEMENT 
ON KENYAN CONSTITUTION

*

*Washington, DC (22 June 2010)* --  The push for ratification of the new 
Kenyan constitution is exposing, once again, the pro-abortion scandal 
perpetrated by "Catholic" Vice President Joe Biden. Biden promised 
Kenyan officials he would work to "allow money to flow" if the 
struggling African nation passed the new pro-abortion constitution.

Judie Brown, president of American Life League, the nation's largest 
Catholic pro-life organization is calling on Biden's bishops in both 
Washington, D.C., and his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware, to deny him 
Holy Communion until he renounces the measure.

"As Catholics, each and every one of us is bound to protect and defend 
the sanctity of every human being's life," said Judie Brown, president 
of American Life League. "Vice President Biden's plan to funnel money 
into already bleeding Africa, should they abide by his pro-abortion 
plan, is scandalous, sacrilegious and murderous."

Brown continued by calling specifically on Bishop Francis Malooly of 
Wilmington, DE, and Archbishop Donald Wuerl of Washington, D.C., to deny 
Holy Communion to Biden.

According to Catholic Canon Law 915, those persisting in a state of 
grave manifest public sin are to be denied Holy Communion. It has long 
been held that those promoting and providing abortion access are 
complicit in the completion of an abortion -- which the Catholic Church 
teaches is a grave, intrinsic evil.

"As one of the most prominent Catholics in the country, the vice 
president's acts are scandalizing the entire body of the faithful,"

Brown said. "His reception of Jesus Christ's body, blood, soul and 
divinity in the Blessed Sacrament cannot do other than to appear as a 
tacit approval from the bishops of Biden's outspoken abortion work."

"If Vice President Biden cannot see Christ in the Eucharist, he will 
never see the dignity of the child in the womb."

*Care Net on EllaOne: 'Not Just Another Morning-After Pill'*

LANSDOWNE, Va., June 21 /Christian Newswire/ -- On June 17th, an 
advisory panel of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made a 
recommendation that the FDA should approve EllaOne (Ulipristal), a new 
drug closely related to Mifiprex (Mifepristone, the RU-486 abortion 
pill). Like Mifiprex, EllaOne has the potential to cause the death and 
abortion of an established pregnancy growing in the womb. Care Net, a 
national network of more than 1,100 pregnancy resource centers, strongly 
recommends that EllaOne not be granted FDA approval. Its ability to 
destroy established pregnancies, as well as prevent implantation, makes 
it an embryocidal drug. FDA approval without making this clear to the 
public would violate the public trust.

HRA Pharma, the company that manufactures EllaOne, claims that it is not 
an abortion pill. Care Net joins other life-affirming organizations, 
such as American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists 
(AAPLOG), who have clearly stated that EllaOne is an abortifacient of 
the same type as Mifepristone and its approval as an emergency 
contraceptive raises serious health and ethical issues.

Care Net issued the following concerns regarding approval of EllaOne as 
an emergency contraceptive:

      1. EllaOne can cause the death of an embryo growing in the uterus.
      Women seeking pregnancy "prevention" need to be adequately
      informed of this potential - the FDA should include a "Black Box"
      warning.

      2. There is an unknown impact on existing pregnancies exposed to
      the drug. Women who do not know they are pregnant will take
      EllaOne, and there are inadequate studies on toxicity to the
      developing embryo.

      3. Off-label use includes the potential to induce an abortion. As
      with Mifiprex and Plan B, this drug will no doubt be used in a
      manner that is outside FDA approval. The potential exists for it
      to be used to abort pregnancies.

      4. Taking EllaOne multiple times during a menstrual cycle carries
      unknown safety risks.

      5. EllaOne is unstudied among:

          o Women over age 35
          o Women who are on concomitant hormonal contraceptives
          o Lactating women
          o Adolescent females

      6. Potential for criminal abuse of drug. EllaOne could be used on
      an unsuspecting, pregnant woman. FDA needs to put in place proper
      restrictions to prevent this abuse.

**Interviews are available with Care Net's National Medical Consultant 
Sandy Christiansen, MD, FACOG.**

has dropped dramatically in the past 12 months. *... The US  FDA seems 
intent on boosting sales in that country by approving the new 5 day
