The Abortion Queen in Mississippi

July 12, 2012/4 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Timmerie Millington

Mississippi recently passed a law requiring that abortionists be OB-GYNs with the ability to admit patients to a local hospital if necessary. This new law has come close to shutting down the last abortion clinic in Mississippi which is owned by Diane Derzis — also known as the ‘Abortion Queen’. The ‘Abortion Queen’s’ clinic has […]

July 11, 2012/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

The International Down Syndrome Coalition (IDSC) is a religiously- and politically-neutral organization dedicated to supporting individuals with Down syndrome and their families.  According to IDSC, When a mother finds out her baby has Down syndrome, she needs support and helpful information.  What sometimes happens, instead, is that professionals, family members, and friends will pressure her […]

Prosecuting women?

July 10, 2012/48 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Earlier this year, NPR reported on a controversial abortion-related arrest: Jennie Linn McCormack was charged last year under an obscure Idaho law for ending her pregnancy with RU-486. She joins an increasing number of women who get the so-called abortion pill off the internet. NPR describes the circumstances of the abortion: In late 2010, McCormack […]

Baltimore cannot “compel speech” from CPC.

July 9, 2012/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Similar to previous stories, a federal judge ruled that Baltimore cannot force a CPC to post signs stating the CPC does not provide abortions or birth control. In 2009 Baltimore passed a law requiring such signs, and Archbishop Edwin O’Brien filed suit, claiming the law violated free speech and assembly, free exercise of religion, equal protection under […]

“Gnawing at my belly, chewing through my organs.”

July 6, 2012/9 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

I’ve previously mentioned how most abortion advocates discuss the fetus in impersonal terms (“product of conception”) while some go further and describe the fetus as an antagonist (“parasite”). I’ve had a few (albeit not many) people object to these suggestions, insisting that pro-choicers do understand the humanity of the fetus.  Some pro-choicers insist all women […]

July 6, 2012/1 Comment/in Uncategorized /by Timmerie Millington

I came across a story on Live Action News this morning and had to share. . . The first successful surgery on an unborn child in the womb to remove tumor was recently performed. The surgery was a success and the baby was born with nothing but a little scar on her lip. (read the story at Live Action […]

The ACA, Abortion, and the Election

July 4, 2012/10 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

The Washington Times reports on reactions to the Affordable Care Act in terms of the abortion debate: “Defeat Obama, elect Mitt Romney and repeal Obamacare,” David O’Steen, executive director of the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), said in response to the high court’s 5-4 decision Thursday, which found the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act constitutional under the […]

They Exist!

July 3, 2012/10 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

[From “I think, therefore I blog,” Jameson Graber considers the dynamics between Secular Pro-Life and a) religious pro-lifers and b) pro-choice secularists.  Excerpts are reprinted with permission.] SPL’s blog regularly receives comments from people trying to “uncover” their secret religious affiliation. Their presence at the Reason Rally was not exactly well-received by all. Why is this? … Accusing […]

Secular Conscientious Objectors?

July 2, 2012/3 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

NBC Philadelphia reports on an upcoming merger between two Montgomery County-based hospitals: Holy Redeemer Health System (Catholic) and Abington Health.  One effect of this merger is that Abington Health will no longer perform abortions.  As Abington Health President and CEO Larry Merlis explains, We wanted assure that we would be able to provide assurances that […]
