June 29, 2026 in Dialogue strategy, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Secular Pro-Life surveyed hundreds of people asking them to work through dozens of medical scenarios and tell us which ones they considered “abortions.” (You can take the survey here.) We compared the answers of committed pro-lifers, middle-ground respondents, and committed pro-choicers to better understand the way these groups communicate with each other. For the data […]

ProPublica is right about Emily Waldorf.

June 10, 2026 in Debunking, Denial of Care, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Scroll to the end of this article to listen to most of the information in video form. We don’t trust ProPublica.

As Caplan put it: Once […]
