Books with author Matthew Thomas Skeens

What does a pro-life lawyer have to say about abortion law? What are the costs of abortion for mothers, minorities, and women? Does abortion target the poor and disabled? Is the abortion industry connected to organized crime, including sex trafficking?Attorney Matthew S. Thomas explains it all in easy-to-understand terms, with full legal and academic citations for those doing research. Using case after case and statistic after statistic, attorney Thomas, proves that not only was the Roe v. Wade case (which legalized abortion in all fifty states) a stunningly poor decision by the Supreme Court, but that its impact on American society has been devastating.The sources used in this book are not only reliable, but are often from liberal publications such as the New York Times, NPR, and NBC News (or are direct quotes from Supreme Court cases). As such, the reader can be confident that it will be hard for Democrats and leftists to simply dismiss the arguments contained herein, at least without dismissing information their own favorite media publishers. If you are a conservative or Republican, we hope this book gives you the tools to make your case going forward!Some of the interesting topics explored in this book include:1.A look at the legal justification for Roe v. Wade.2.How abortion impacts society’s most vulnerable.3.The long-term psychological damage of abortion on mothers and fathers.4.A Biblical prospective on abortion for Christians/Catholics.5.Substituting the word “abortion” for “slavery” in an Abraham Lincoln speech.Thanks to all our loyal readers! – Upbeat Conservative Publications

This title contains full citations (footnotes) so that each quotation can be easily referenced and cross-checked by students, researchers, professors, or those simply interested in liberty. In addition, each piece of source material is fully cited at the end.The book is organized to make it easy for both casual readers and scholars to be able to find what they want, and find it quickly. Each of the nine individuals quoted in this book has their own chapter, and within each chapter, their quotes are broken down by topic. In addition, each piece of source material is fully cited in a “Works Cited” section at the end.In our time, the words of America’s founding fathers represent many things – not in the least, political currency. With the freedom brought on by the internet, every American now has the ability to not only research, but to join the debate formerly waged primarily by political parties. Among America’s Founders, names like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Samuel Adams, Thomas Paine, and Benjamin Rush loom large. Regarding the thoughts and writings of these seven, plus enlightenment philosopher John Locke, from whom they took many of their ideas, and Alexis de Tocqueville, the man who wrote the most seminal study of political science ever to examine the American condition, this work will settle the debate between liberals and conservatives once and for all. All of the Founders in this book had what we would now call conservative ideas (as did John Locke). In their time, these ideas (such as limited government) were referred to as liberal. Toqueville’s early 1830s observations on the America the founders bequeathed to their children confirm their “conservative” ideas again and again, until they are beyond question. If liberals and Democrats wish to continue advocating their ideology, they must no longer look to the Founding Fathers for support.
