Teens more likely to die by suicide after abortion, Finnish study finds

July 29, 2022/0 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Elise Ketch

[Today’s guest article is by Elise Ketch.] A Finnish study published in 2017 found that women who have abortions as teens are more likely to die by suicide, compared to teen mothers who chose life. The study participants who received abortions were twice as likely to die by suicide than their peers who gave birth, […]

Kentucky Judge Rejects Modern Science, Blocks Abortion Ban

July 25, 2022/0 Comments/in Biology, Legislation, laws, & court cases, Religion, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Kentucky Judge Mitch Perry temporarily enjoined the state’s pro-life laws, laughably claiming that recognition of human life in the womb is an establishment of religion. Ninety-five percent of biologists, including a strong majority of those who consider themselves pro-choice, acknowledge the scientific reality that human life begins at fertilization. Even the Justices who decided Roe […]

Our miscarried children weren’t parasites.

July 23, 2022/0 Comments/in Biology, Miscarriage & Pregnancy Loss, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

(Transcript below video.)  [Esta publicación está disponible en español aquí.] Transcript: When pro-choice people conceptualize the embryo as a parasite, and pathologize pregnancy as our body’s failure to rid ourselves of a parasite, there’s another element of that discourse that I want to touch on. And that is how this kind of framing affects people […]

Anti-Abortion Should Be Anti-Censorship

July 22, 2022/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Once in a while, I find myself agreeing with pro-choicers about something. Today is one of those days, thanks to an incredibly stupid incident from American University School of Law. It all started with the leak of the Dobbs opinion. Law students began discussing it in a group chat. American University was once ranked the […]

I’m an emergency physician. Pro-life laws don’t threaten my patients.

July 20, 2022/0 Comments/in Biology, Legislation, laws, & court cases, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

I am a practicing emergency physician in Texas. My primary practice location is in a high volume, urban, community ER attached to a hospital providing women’s services, i.e. obstetrics. 20-30% of my daily practice is acute-care obstetric triage and treatment prior to 20 weeks, as well as undifferentiated walk in patients beyond 20 weeks with […]

Some differences between embryos and parasites.

July 19, 2022/0 Comments/in Biology, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

[Esta publicación está disponible en español aquí.] A few people asked us to respond to the “fetus is a parasite” TikTok. We posted some thoughts from Dr. Calum Miller here. I added to his points in this TikTok (transcript below video): Yeah this is not accurate in terms of biology. There’s a lot in it that’s […]

Dobbs is Bearing Out a 45-Year-Old Pro-Life Feminist Theory

July 18, 2022/1 Comment/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

[Today’s guest article is by Acyutananda.] There is a particular pro-life feminist theory which I have sometimes reiterated in Secular Pro-Life blogposts: The removal of abortion as an easy option ensures that people will protest strongly for better conditions for women. Why bother to protest strongly, which is a lot of trouble, as long as […]

The fetus isn’t a parasite. Stop pathologizing pregnancy.

July 16, 2022/0 Comments/in Biology, Uncategorized /by Calum Miller

The following post is recreated from a Twitter thread by Dr. Calum Miller. This viral video about fetuses being parasites is honestly the perfect example of what happens when you give a first year undergrad a small bit of technical knowledge and a camera. (I’m not saying she is a first year undergrad – just […]

Keep Abortion Vendors Off Federal Property

July 15, 2022/1 Comment/in Legislation, laws, & court cases, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Secular Pro-Life joined a coalition of dozens of groups, led by Students for Life Action, in an open letter to Congress. The letter forcefully refutes the pro-abortion proposal to establish abortion hubs on federal land. In the wake of Dobbs, desperate abortion industry groups sought any workaround to continue killing unborn babies in pro-life jurisdictions. […]
