June 29, 2019/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Many of you know that Secular Pro-Life is led by a trio of atheist women: Monica, the conservative; Kelsey, the moderate; and Terrisa, the liberal San Francisco vegan who Fox News warned you about. (We love you, Terrisa!) So who better than Terrisa to represent the secular point of view at the Democrats for Life […]

June 19, 2019/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Today’s advice-seeker wants your two cents on the nightmare that is social media. Here is her question (which has been edited for length and to omit personally identifying details): For the last several years I’ve been sympathetic to the pro-life position, supportive of really early gestational limits (e.g. 10 weeks) and disliked the vilification of […]

Are Human Embryos Human Beings from the Beginning?

June 12, 2019/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Clinton Wilcox

Photo by Kelly Sikkema on Unsplash Pro-choice advocates will insist that the human embryo doesn’t become a human being until birth or at least sometime late in pregnancy. Pro-life people generally agree with the scientific consensus that human life begins at fertilization; once the ovum cell is fertilized by the sperm cell, a new, genetically distinct human organism […]

Pro-choice articles euphemizing “heartbeat.”

June 7, 2019/0 Comments/in Biology /by Monica Snyder

Definitions of “heartbeat.” To my knowledge there’s no unifying authoritative definition of “heartbeat.” Embryology textbooks do use the term.

When we say “heartbeat” we don’t mean “fetal pole cardiac activity.” We mean “heartbeat.”

There is no real heart beat because it’s heart isn’t nearly complete – they’re heart “vibrations” (vibrations are caused my cellular activity where the heart WILL be. […]
