Although it’s always been a minor theme in pro-abortion advocacy, abortion “access” has been front and center lately, particularly when it comes to state requirements that abortionists have admitting privileges at local hospitals. The goal of this legislation is to stop the practice of (literal) fly-by-night abortionists, who come into town for abortions, fly back […]
On the right is me, Kelsey Hazzard, the president of Secular Pro-Life. On the left is Monica Snyder, SPL’s West Coast Coordinator. For years, Monica has led the SPL contingent at the Walk for Life West Coast. Last year, she had the honor of addressing the entire Walk for Life crowd! But it’s more than […]
[Today’s guest post by Kris Skul is part of our paid blogging program.] We already know that religious arguments against abortion are ineffective at reaching a general audience—that’s why Secular Pro-Life exists. But not every secular defense is airtight, either. Many common pro-life arguments are readily refuted by abortion supporters, even if they make […]
Brat Fest is an annual festival that takes place in Madison, Wisconsin every year to raise money for charity. One of the speakers invited to this year’s festival was Bob Lenz.

[Today’s article by Kelsey Hazzard was originally published earlier this week, in the latest issue of the Life Matters Journal. You should definitely read the whole thing. It has a recap of the Life/Peace/Justice conference, a piece by frequent SPL contributor Sarah Terzo, and much more. And it’s free!] The 40 film is a documentary […]
[Today’s guest post by Clinton Wilcox is part of our paid blogging program.] I have written several articles already giving a robust defense of what a person is. But now I’d like to talk about what I see as a key component to a person. My preferred definition of “person” comes from medieval philosopher Boethius, […]
[Today’s guest post by Rachel Enders is part of our paid blogging program. Get more thoughts from Rachel at her Pro-Life For All tumblr. She also blogs about sexual health at Birds, Bees, and Other Things, which is not remotely safe for work.] Emily Letts is a woman from New Jersey, and she is pro-choice. […]
Yesterday, Slate published an article by Boer Deng and Dahlia Lithwick entitled Liberal Guilt: In the push to abolish the capital punishment, opponents of the death penalty have made it less safe. Let us first take a moment to ponder the lunacy of that headline. What, exactly, is a “safe” death penalty? Safe for whom? […]
