Life Matters324: Election 2024In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explains the real issues that are at stake. Brian warns listeners of the dangers of popular media culture. He reminds us that Orwell‘s purpose in writing “1984” was actually to portray how the average person responds to a dominant media culture, dedicated to influencing and controlling society. But there are deeper issues that matter, issues that the media either ignores, misrepresents, or intentionally attacks. In order to be truly responsible for ourselves, our lives, our family, and if we believe in God, responsible to our Maker, we must, yes, we must...2024-08-1927 minLife Matters323: Global WarmingIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston takes a deep dive into real science. He takes a deep dive into simple grade school science, of basic earth science, basic astronomy as taught in sixth grade, and the common sense science that any fifth or sixth grader can understand. The issue we must clearly destroy, and which is probably the most insidious and clever at this moment, is the whole idea of man-made global warming. The president of the United States and many internationalists have proclaimed that man-made global warming is the single, in fact t...2024-07-2027 minLife Matters322: The Actual DebateIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston takes an even deeper dive into the real significance of the recent presidential debate. Previously, he explored the debate through the eyes of Fox News host, Shannon Bream and United States Senator from Pennsylvania, John Fetterman. But both of those commentators from right and left were dealing with a very facile, surface analysis, particularly focusing on the significance of Joe Biden‘s performance. But that is what EVERY media outlet has focused on - every Republican and even Democrat pundit has made America focus on that topic. And...2024-07-1427 minLife Matters321: It's Not About Lucidity. It's About PolicyIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston examines the real implications of the recent presidential debate. Interestingly, he agrees with Pennsylvania Democratic senator, John Fetterman. In an interview with Fox News' Shannon Bream, Fetterman points out that he himself was in apparent mental collapse and his debates with candidate, Dr. Oz of television fame were complete failures due to Fetterman’s slurring and confused use of language. It turns out that Fetterman went on to actually win the election by several points. Brian points out that the real issues of the most rec...2024-07-0527 minLife Matters320: Doctors Are The Issue, Not BabiesWho has choice? It’s not women! It was only doctors who were authorized to kill, to decide when to kill and what procedures to use. Yes, in Roe v. Wade choice was given only to doctors. In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explorers the confusion that many individuals have regarding what happened onJanuary 22, 1973. The Roe v. Wade decision is actually quite direct and explicit. There is no right of a woman to a woman’s own body. Justice Blackmun, the author of Roe, was not giving women the right to do whatever they want, when...2024-06-2227 minLife Matters319: How A Republic Works with Scott PeotterIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston discusses the actual nature of how a republic works. It works by representing the people through elected representation. These representatives exist at every level of government and through diversified jurisdictions . Brian interviews Scott Peotter, a long-time pro-life advocate who has served in local jurisdictions and has enforced just laws on the most local levels, including city council. In July 2023, Gavin Newsom attempted, in his role of governor, to force the Temecula school board to promote LGBTQ doctrines and accept Planned Parenthood abortion mandates in that district. The scho...2024-05-2127 minLife Matters316: Euthanasia ExpansionIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explores the rapid expansion of medical killing - euthanasia. The pattern for euthanasia advocates is to first establish a right to “assisted suicide” - a form of voluntary euthanasia – and imply that there will be protections from any abuse, and that there will be no expansion of medical killing. California Senate Bill 1169 by Senator Blakespear demonstrates again that once the idea of legalized medical killing is established, it is impossible to monitor or prevent its “It’s okay” expansion. Currently, it is very difficult to monitor the use of assist...2024-03-2627 minLife Matters314: Nationalization of EuthanasiaIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston examines the pressure in 2024 to legalize assisted suicide nationwide in the United States. Many nations have now adopted assisted suicide throughout their borders, including Canada, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland, France, in many others. The American euthanasia movement had attempted to do this through the courts, but in 1994 the Glucksberg decision by the United States Supreme Court announced there was no national “legal right” to be killed by medicine. In spring of 2024, there are 10 states that have legalized medical killing, plus the District of Columbia. There are...2024-03-0227 minLife MattersLife Matters 37th Anniversary SpecialIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston reminiscences on Life Matters beginning in 1987, on its expansion, and the many friends and allies that have brought it to this point 37 years later. Life Matters began on radio station station KCBC the 50,000 Watt (The highest wattage allowed by the FCC ) flamethrower station covering northern California. It was the northern California cornerstone for the Bott Broadcasting Network. Life Matters with Brian Johnston gradually expanded to other Bott affiliates, then to the Wilkins Network, which is a nationwide Christian broadcast string of stations, and eventually was included on many stations...2024-01-2027 minLife Matters302: Identical Twins - Aren’t!!!!In this extraordinary episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explores the biological miracle of twinning. More to the point, he explains in detail how even identical twins are not identical. The twins can share exactly the same DNA, but God still makes each of us unique, even individual “identical twins.” The bottom line is that human beings are not merely naked apes or mammalian animals. Human beings are spiritual beings first and foremost. While there are some aspects of secular science that refuses to acknowledge a spiritual dimension to life, ironically, the physical sciences actually indicate there are...2023-07-0727 minLife Matters300: The Deeper Meaning of DobbsIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston takes a straight-forward look into what the overrule of Roe v. Wade actually means for our nation and our state. He reads from the decision and cites several other matters of court precedent, including Doe v. Bolton. Johnston explains that not a single baby is protected in the language of the Dobbs decision. Instead, the Court simply apologizes and declares they will now let the American people again regulate abortion, and do so through their elected representatives. It restores that essential principle of the Republic: government of, by and for the...2023-01-1628 minLife Matters298: Interview From Life Fest Film Festival 2022In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston conducts an interview with Laura Lehmus, a Finnish director, currently residing in Germany.

This episode of Life Matters, recorded in October 2022, addresses itself to a very specific and ongoing issue in this fight for life. It focuses on the election coming to an end on November 8th. It gives a much deeper, detailed explanation and understanding of the significance of this and future elections when it comes to ending abortion and the much larger issue of protecting all innocent life from medical killing. ...2022-10-2227 minLife Matters293: October Is Election MonthIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston pointedly focuses on elections in 2022. This is the first election since the overturn of Roe versus Wade. Because of that, the disposition of the elected representatives will be of considerable importance. As usual, Brian goes into extraordinary depths to help individuals understand the details of the Right To Life fight for legal protection of the innocent. First, Brian explains the history of PACs. PACs were formed in the 1980s in response to public employee unions forced withdrawal of money from union members, and the use of that money for po...2022-10-1327 minLife MattersAfter Roe, Only Your Vote Can Protect Babies!Commissioner Johnston explores the first election after the overturn of Roe versus Wade. Brian goes in depth into why this election, and in fact, every subsequent election, will require a vibrant and knowledgeable pro-life electorate. Brian explains that it is in fact the laws that have been at stake all along. That Roe versus Wade was significant only in that it overturned the laws of all 50 states. The laws had protected both mothers and babies up until January 22, 1973. When Justice Blackmun created a new law, and did so inappropriately in Roe v. Wade, he struck down the...2022-10-0827 minLife Matters290: Your Vote Now Can Protect LivesIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston is joined by Karen Roseberry - district Director for the California Prolife Council. Karen is also the crisis pregnancy center coordinator for California ProLife communications. The focus of today’s discussion is on how to protect innocent babies after the overturn of Roe v. Wade. As listeners to this program know, many Americans, and even many pro-life Americans, do not fully understand what Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton did. It gave all authority of the abortion issue into the hands of one individual, the only req...2022-09-1827 minLife Matters285: Dobbs’ Recognition of Constitutional State Authority to Protect LifeIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston examines the meaning of the right to life. Why does this have to be about the law? Where did this right to life come from? Did it begin at America’s founding, or is it a deeper, more widely recognized, universal truth - a self evident truth - that everyone should take the time and interest to deliberate? The American founders strongly felt this was so. They proclaimed to the world that they would form a new form of government that appealed to this universal, higher law, view of life...2022-08-0827 minLife Matters280: Relativism On The Right Too!In this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston continues in his incisive examination of the creep of relativism into the pro-life movement. In an earlier episode Brian explained how the social teachings of the Seamless Garment, a common Roman Catholic misunderstanding of the place of the abortion issue, has led to great confusion and destruction. While many seamless garment advocates suggest that they will elevate abortion as a dominant topic of all the social issues, it in fact makes the Right To Life issue and the subject of abortion a relativistic portion of a confused moral morass...2022-06-2227 minLife Matters277: Elections - Spring 2022 and OnwardIn this Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston examines the elections of Spring of 2022 in California. Most importantly, he delves into how the principles that need to be applied there, also apply everywhere that citizens have the freedom to vote. Brian puts particular emphasis on understanding the nature of the electoral and civic system under which an individual lives. As election processes now vary from state to state, there are better ways to analyze the ballot and vote on candidates, rather than on your simple ‘feelings.’ California’s election system has been dramatically altered in the last two decades, and Californians must ma...2022-05-3127 minLife Matters276: Your Form of Government Is Stolen In California & Throughout The United StatesIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston takes the opportunity to examine California’s unique situation in the cultural battle now raging across the nation and the world. Few Californians fully realize that our form of government has been dramatically changed through extreme alteration of our method of voting and tallying votes. But this is only one aspect of the very serious attack on our state’s form of government and our nation’s form of government. Justice Clarence Thomas explains the deeper significance of the Supreme Court leak in the midst of its deliberations. Justice Thomas i...2022-05-1627 minLife Matters275: Radical Abortion Laws Can Only Be Stopped By Voting Wisely.In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston interviews attorney Sheila Green regarding the current situation in California in Spring of 2022. While it is an unusual circumstance within the state, it is critically important to recognize the methods and procedures used by abortion advocates which have now become a worldwide tool. The radicalization of political parties both in the United States and abroad has brought abortion and the killing of innocent life through infanticide and euthanasia into nearly every Western culture. This has not happened accidentally. It is critically important that caring individuals examine closely th...2022-05-0727 minLife Matters274: Open Legalization of InfanticideIn this special episode from Spring of 2022, Brian Johnston interviews Sheila Green, Esquire, Vice President of the California ProLife Council. The California ProLife Council had filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the state in 2020 regarding the enforcement of existing law. That law, Health & Safety Code Section: 123435, specifically prohibits infanticide if a child is born alive in the course of an abortion. The state admitted it does not enforce or investigate this law in any manner. Subsequently, the California ProLife Council began an effort to expose this intentional, non-enforcement of infanticide. Rather th...2022-04-2627 minLife Matters269: All Politics Is LocalIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explains how the pro-life movement, and every political movement throughout history, has been successful: By organizing educating and motivating on the local level. The National Right to Life Committee is composed of 50 separate organizations, one in each state. In turn, each of these state affiliates are comprised of local volunteers and chapters which address the right to life issue within their own community. Brian addresses the methods by which the civics of each community should be engaged, in particular during elections. If pro-life candidates can...2022-02-2127 minLife Matters267: Civil vs. Criminal Distinctions in the Case of the Texas “Heartbeat Law”In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston takes an in-depth analysis of the state laws recently examined by the Supreme Court. He explains, in particular, the Texas law which authorizes private individuals taking civil action against an abortionist. While Brian‘s educational background is in comparative languages, he has worked for many years in the legal world, not only as an advocate (lobbyist) for many years in Sacramento and the various state capitols of the West, but as a young man he spent several years working as an assistant at a Los Angeles entertainment law firm. ...2022-01-0527 minLife Matters264: Marxist Ideology Coming to the Forefront of Our CultureIn this episode of Life Matters Commissioner Johnston explores the statements and teachings of radical-feminist theory, specifically as expressed by Ruth Bader Ginsberg. He repeats her quotes from the bench and shares her comments from later interviews. Ruth Bader Ginsberg openly quoted Marx from from the bench of the United States Supreme Court. But does not give him attribution. Very few I have read Marx nor do they understand the sweeping cultural dictates of the Marxist philosophy. They are therefore ignorant of these ideas when couched in progressive culture and then placed directly into the laws of our nati...2021-11-3027 minLife Matters262: Supreme Court Surprise - Speeds Up Review of State Abortion LawIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston examines, in-depth, the surprising news that the Supreme Court is accelerating its review of Roe versus Wade. November 1, 2021 the Supreme Court has agreed to hear oral arguments in the case of the new Texas law known as the “Heartbeat Bill”. Abortion radicals are deeply alarmed at the impact of allowing the Texas measure to stay in affect, which the Supreme Court has done up until this point. The Biden administration, fulfilling its loyalty to the abortion industry, has pledged to use every aspect of the federal government to stop this...2021-10-2627 minLife Matters260: Recap of the California Recall Election September, 2021In this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston explorers what happened in the 2021 recall election of Governor Gavin Newsom. Previous episodes leading up to the recall prepared listeners for the fact that it would be a difficult task and that aside from simply voting ‘YES’ on the recall, there was a great need to also vote for a replacement. Brian explains how, for the first time in California history, the Democrat party demanded that there be no Democrat replacement even suggested, and promised to punish any Democrat officeholder who presented themselves as a possible replacement candi...2021-09-2127 minLife MattersUnderstanding History To Understand the PresentIn this vital episode, Commissioner Johnston examines how history is being directly attacked and rewritten at this very moment. This practice is the ongoing pattern of progressive, historical revisionism. It also reflects a fundamental principle lost on most of us in our day-to-day lives: what has preceded us has lead to this moment. A proper understanding of history will empower us to address this moment in which we live. Brian ties this to an understanding of the abortion culture surrounding us, and even more importantly, to what truly happened in the Roe v. Wade and D...2021-07-2427 minLife Matters251: The Subversive Agenda of the Media in Silencing to Right To Life251: The Subversive Agenda of the Media in Silencing to Right To Life In this episode of “Life Matters”, Commissioner Johnston explains that we are in a battle of ideas, a frequent theme of the “Life Matters” program. It is critically important to realize that the dominant media culture is not merely tolerant of a pro-death worldview - it is selling it and selling it hard. In many ways, we, here today, are living in a dystopia. Dystopias are not the merely fictional worlds of 1984 or Brave New World, but the authentic cultures in which a p...2021-05-0927 minLife Matters249: Roe v. Wade - The Alibi for Doe v. BoltonIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explores the more profound significance of the Roe v. Wade narrative. As has been discussed in other programs and deeply explained by other Supreme Court justices, by Justice Blackmun’s court clerks, and many other legal experts who would prefer legalized abortion, Roe versus Wade is a confusing jumble. It’s a wild story that leads us confusingly through legal and medical history, through an arbitrary division of pregnancy into trimesters and assertions of where abortion should be performed in the various trimesters. Brian explains that this narrative, this stor...2021-04-0327 minLife Matters246: Understanding History To Understand the PresentIn this vital episode, Commissioner Johnston examines how history is being directly attacked and rewritten at this very moment.

Wade and D...2021-03-0627 minLife Matters244: Watch Your Language. Watch It CloselyIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston outlines the incredible power that language has over our thoughts and perceptions. Brian had studied Comparative Linguistics at Sonoma State University and explains a language phenomenon that many of us don’t often think about. Just as we are unable to comprehend a completely foreign language, there is the related inability to think about or understand ideas for which we have no words. This principle also extends to deeper implications - that the meaning of words themselves can be changed simply by their usage in society. Those who...2021-02-2127 minLife Matters243: Creating Zombie Law - The Fabled Return of the ERAIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston explains how much of abortion rhetoric and abortion law is actually based on falsehoods. Pro-life individuals are aware of the absurd assertion that, ‘there is no human being killed,’ when a baby dies in a human abortion. But those familiar with objective facts and self-evident truths know that this is simply an assertion of ideology, separated from objective science, and biological fact. When looked at objectively and dispassionately, it is strikingly clear that in a human abortion, the life of a unique human being is taken. The actual...2021-02-1327 minLife Matters239: Roe and Doe - The Evil TwinsIn this episode of Life Matters Commissioner Johnston explores the real issues hidden deep within Roe versus Wade and Doe versus Bolton, the twin decisions handed down on January 22, 1973. Few people, even many pro-lifers are aware that abortion was legalized and the laws of all of the states overturned not by simply Roe versus Wade but by the twin conjoined decisions of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton. Roe v. Wade was addressing the abortion laws of Texas. Doe v. Bolton was addressing the abortion laws of Georgia. Brian Johnston pulls from h...2021-01-0927 minLife Matters238 - The End of an Extraordinary YearIn this year end episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston reviews the essential purpose of the program and the extraordinary nature of 2020 as a year. Doctor Anthony Levantino MD, a former abortionist, tells the story of his transformation to a Pro-life advocate. For the sake of those who seek a year-end tax deduction, Brian outlines some of the many ways that donors can help the California Prolife Council, the principal sponsor of Life Matters. Many of these various outreaches and opportunities are available directly at www. Californiaprolife.Org2020-12-2627 minLife Matters235: Why The Constitution Has An Electoral CollegeIn this episode of Life Matters Brian Johnston explains how the Constitution outlines the method for electing presidents (Article II; and the 12th Amendment). The media culture, and even many Republicans that have not read the 12th amendment, are pressuring the public and the Trump administration into believing that popular acclaim, particularly when enforced by a media society, is our method of election. Brian takes a deep dive into the methods that are being pursued at this moment by the Trump administration, and the guidance of the 12th amendment. In particular Brian explains the...2020-11-2827 minLife Matters233: Does the Media Get To Certify Elections?In this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston interviews international political expert Dr. Steven Mosher, president of Population Research Institute. They discuss the present dilemma of media organizations proclaiming election returns long before an official tally has been certified. They also discuss a recent phenomenon in this election year, the widespread and broad distribution of unregulated and unaccounted for ballots. This is substantially different from the regular process of absentee voting. In an absentee ballot a registered and legally authorized voter specifically asked for and receives their personal ballot, and returns the same documented and...2020-11-1427 minLife Matters232: The Post-Election Battle -Disinformation Is Given Free ReignBrian Johnston continually reminds us that the battle for the right to life is actually rooted in the battle of ideas. And in this battle of ideas they must be expressed through language, ideas must be embodied by words. Because of that, there is an ongoing battle over words and their meanings. It is a battle reaching a crescendo, an ongoing battle in which our entire culture is now immersed. Disinformation is the intentional relaying, retelling and re-emphasis of false information: false facts, false ‘truths’ and principles. We are currently witnessing a concerted attempt at a cult...2020-11-0727 minLife Matters231: Elections Weekend 2020In this episode of Life Matters Brian Johnston explores the final weekend leading up to election day, November 3, 2020. Brian gives an overview of the importance of the election itself, why pro-lifers across the political and religious spectrum need to vote, and in particular why they need to vote the entire ballot, including local candidates and school boards. Brian has several guests including Ben Lopez, a long-time, pro-life political activist who is running for Montclair City Council, and Mike Cargile a pro-life individual running for Congressional District 35. This particular episode focuses on the power...2020-10-3127 minLife Matters230: Understand the Principles Behind the MomentIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Johnston explores our current culture’s fascination with news. But the word, ‘news’ is actually a reference to immediacy and not necessarily actual meaningful substance: that which is ‘new.’ The word, ‘ephemera’ comes to us from Greek and refers to something that is very briefly lived. Many ephemeral insects literally live their lives in the course of a day or two. They then become food for other insects or animals, most famously the flies eaten by many trout and other fish. Our cultural fascination with the news, or ephemeral data...2020-10-2327 minLife Matters228: California Ballot PropositionsIn this episode of Life Matters, Brian Johnston along with California Pro-life’s Vice President Sheila Green, discuss some of the many ballot propositions on the November 2020 ballot in California. First and foremost is Proposition 14 which renews funding for the CIRM, the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine. In short, the CRM had been established in 2004 via Proposition 71. It received over $6 billion after counting interest and it was all to be dedicated to embryonic stem cell research and other forms of research, which then President Bush had declared unethical. The federal government would not fund such research. ...2020-10-0327 minLife Matters227 - The Ideologies of Ruth Bader GinsbergWith the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, there is a renewed understanding in the American conscience that the purpose of the Supreme Court is to affirm laws that are truly just. It is absolutely essential that we have an understanding of what determines justice from injustice. If Sandra Day O'Connor was the first woman on the Supreme Court, why is Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG) heralded as the cutting-edge, feminist icon of American jurisprudence? Simple: Political feminism is not about advancing women. It is about advancing ideology. "There will never be enough women on the Supreme Cou...2020-09-2527 minLife Matters225: Embryonic Stem-cells and California’s Prop 14In this episode of Life Matters Commissioner Johnston examines the issue of embryonic stem-cell research and California’s upcoming ballot measure Proposition 14. The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) was established in 2004 with the help of more than $6 billion (after interest) by California taxpayers through then Ballot Proposition 71. CIRM has now run out of money. It has spent billions of dollars. Though it had promised miraculous cured through the use of embryonic stem-cell research, each and every experiment was a failure. But they weren’t just failures in the sense of ‘not successful.’ These ethically-questionable medical experiments created...2020-09-0927 minLife MattersSpecial: A “Reaganesque” Pledge DriveIn this special pledge drive episode of Life Matters you will hear from Brian Johnston, Dr. Mildred Jefferson, guest host Toni Deaver, President Ronald Reagan, and have the opportunity to receive a copy of President Reagan’s book, “Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation”.

Recorded on July 4th of 2020, Brian explains how the value and significance of each and every human life is the predicate for all of the other freedoms the American System offers to individuals. The right to life movement derives its name from the statement of political philosophy which we know as the Declaration of Independence. This Declaration was written to explain to the whole world why the American form of government and its attempt to...2020-07-1827 min
Life Matters221: The Killing of George FloydIn this episode of Life Matters, Our host Brian Johnston explores the deeply disturbing video of the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 25, 2020. The worldwide distribution of the clear killing has created national and cultural turmoil that echoes throughout the known world. Johnston shares his outrage at this apparently unjustified use of force and the killing of a man that has not had a trial. It is a public declaration that we, all of us, recognize that George Floyd had a right to be alive. We witnessed the violation of his right to life. 2020-06-1327 min

They discuss the Unborn Sanctuary Resolution, a powerful educational and civic action which encourages locally elected representatives to distance themselves from the oppressive state sponsorship of unlimited abortion. Unborn Sanctuary Resolutions have been in enacted in New Mexico (Roswell) and Utah (Riverton) in reaction to the open unlimited acts of abortion authorized in New York and Virginia and other states in 2019.

CPLC attorneys, in consulting these other actions, have determined that the points of law California Prolife Council is raising are substantively different and important for a comprehensive judicial analysis.

The value of individual human lives is recognized in natural law as the predicate for a just society and just laws. As America’s Founders said, “To ensure these rights, governments are instituted among men.” In this episode Johnston explains the current climate in the battle of ideas which rages against the idea of a right to life for innocent individuals. The current climate even rages against the use of natural law principles in creating society’s laws. The...2020-05-2327 minLife Matters217: The Culture of Relativism, Progressivism and Hegelian InfluenceCommissioner Johnston explores the popularity of, and the origins of, the cultural wide embrace of relativism. What is it? Where did it come from? Why does it seem so prevalent? He builds on the exposition of the previous episode which dove into great depth as to the nature of “self evident truths,” natural law, “the laws of nature and of nature’s God.” These principles are essential to grasp and understand if one is to understand the nature of America’s experiment in freedom. America’s founders, in starting a new nation, realized they could create any form...2020-05-1627 minLife Matters215: California Freedom of Information Act: Block-buster AdmissionIn this episode of Life Matters, Commissioner Brian Johnston interviews attorney Sheila Green of the California Prolife Council. Attorney Green had filed a California Freedom of Information Act request with the state Department of Health Care Services. She had requested an explanation of monitoring abortion in California and the system by which abortions are paid for and conditions under which these abortions will be paid for. In a stunning admission which the state has never given heretofore, the Department of Health Care Services admitted it pays for all abortions, at all times, without question of gestational age...2020-04-2527 minLife Matters214: Fighting Viruses - Your Immune System Is Designed To Do That...Why Zinc MattersYour first line of defense against COVID-19 is not masks, gloves, moon suits, or distancing. Your first line of defense is your natural immune system. Failure of your immune system and compromised immune systems are the number one factor in COVID-19 deaths. Scientific studies have demonstrated there are very practical and straightforward resources available including the supplementation of zinc to quickly and effectively ensure a more robust, human immune system. In a post-Covid environment it will only be our immune system’s that will continue to protect us against many deadly airborne viruses. In the pol...2020-04-1727 min

Life Matters097: Dismissing Human Lives - The Subtle Cancer of Radical EnvironmentalismIn this episode Commissioner Johnston discusses recent events in the news that involved mass shootings. The popular media, in examining the cause and the issue, neglected to point out a common factor between the two gunmen. While one seemed to be on the “right,” and the other on the “left“, in reality both in their writings admitted to being environmentally concerned and deeply troubled over the issue of overpopulation. They both expressed a pressing need to lower the population and saw their acts as doing so. While a handful of outlets did make known these express writings of the kil...2019-09-2927 min

Brian reminds listeners that if they really care about human life and consider themselves to be pro-life they need to take the time to look into how laws are made because it is the laws that are designed to protect innocent lives.

Life Matters094: Understanding the Significance of Overturning Roe V. Wade and Doe V. BoltonIn this episode, Brian Johnston reminds us of the actual nature of the Roe versus Wade decision and the companion decision, Doe versus Bolton. Unfortunately, the major media has misrepresented these decisions since they came down on January 22, 1973. Brian points out the amazing fact that the average person, when fully informed just how far Roe and Doe reach, does not agree with these Supreme Court findings. What that means is your neighbors, and the average person, even in California, more than seventy percent of Californians do not agree with unlimited abortion on demand. In Roe v...2019-05-2527 minLife Matters093: The Light of Day - Abortion Happenings In Our NationThe right to life is a very specific thing. It is an assertion of a legal principle. It is not an expression of feelings, or of personal theology, but rather an assertion that the duty of government is to protect innocent lives. The abortion controversy has taken a dramatic turn in 2019 with the adoption of laws in some states and proposals in others, that abortions be legalized throughout the entire nine months of pregnancy, and in the situation where a child is born alive in the course of the abortion that that child be set aside to...2019-05-1827 min
Life Matters092: The Significance of the IndividualIn this episode Brian Johnston looks further into the insidious legislation being put into law around the country - law that allows for late-term abortions including post-term abortions. In California, where the Democrat party is essentially pupeteered by Planned Parenthood, the danger of this law coming to our state is very, very real. We need to condemn this great evil while it is exposed. Do not let the opportunity to remind Americans of their own conscience pass you by.

Life Matters085: The Attack On Common Sense - Part IIProgressivism has embraced moral and ethical absurdities as somehow 'true,’ even 'Post-birth' abortion is now seriously being put forward as just law in a number of states. Few people understand the genesis of this widespread thinking, where it came from, or just how deeply-engrained and pervasive it actually is. Brian Johnston explains that many of our contemporaries, even those who may sit in pews in your church, self-described 'Christians,' in practice have been caught in their minds by the pseudoscience-religious appeal of progressive thinking. They have replaced Christian principles of 'self-evident truths' revealed in nature by the...2019-02-0927 min

Few people understand the genesis of this widespread thinking, where it came from, or just how deeply engrained and pervasive it actually is. Because the abortion issue and all of the ‘right to life' debate emanates from the 'battle of ideas,' Brian examines the actual roots of 'progressivism' and the deadly serious, yet oddly infectious ideas of German philosopher Fredreich Hegel. In his own words, Peter Singer, the mo...2019-02-0227 min
Life Matters083: The Real Ruth Ginsburg - Radical FeministIf Sandra Day O'Connor was the first woman on the Supreme Court, why is Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG) heralded as the cutting-edge, feminist icon of American jurisprudence? Simple: Political feminism is not about advancing women. It is about advancing ideology. "There will never be enough women on the Supreme Court until there are nine." ~RBG In this special Life Matters broadcast, Brian Johnston explores the recent film lionizing "RBG", what it really says about society and the Supreme Court, and RBG in particular.

Brian Johnston explains the founding of the Republican Party and its specific purpose of asserting the core values of the American founding - in particular, the assertion of the 'Right to Life' of slaves and the civic duty to free them through legal means, and to end the practice of slavery...2018-11-1727 min
Life Matters073: The Culture Is Dependent On YOU Voting!In this edition of Life Matters Commissioner Johnston builds on the basic premise of what the 'Right to Life" really is. It is not about your opinion or your feelings. It is not about your personal religion. It is about a simple fact often asked in the history of Western Civilization: "Does the law protect the innocent? And if not, why not?" Brian begins from a rather extraordinary source, the Catholic Catechism (2273). The Catholic Catechism itself declares that this issue is not religious in nature, but is instead the basic element of any civil society... religious predilection...2018-10-0627 minLife Matters063: Stop Assisted Suicide!The right to life is a very specific idea and that idea has created a culture that revolves around the notion that human beings are significant. Each of us has a significance in the life we are given. This is an assertion adopted by the founders of the United States. They coined the phrase, “right to life,” - that every individual is endowed by our Creator with a right to life. This is an inalienable right. The government does not bestow it upon us.
