Tonight, we are screening the 40 film! This documentary is a fantastic look at the history of the pro-life cause and what the future holds. It includes the personal stories of women and men affected by unplanned pregnancy, interviews with pro-life leaders (including SPL’s Kelsey Hazzard), discussion of common themes in the abortion debate, and […]
[Today’s guest post by Kris Skul is part of our paid blogging program.] This is a follow-up to my March 25 post, “Abortion, Sex Positivity, and the Non-Aggression Principle,” in which I argued that defending the unborn and supporting sexual freedom are not philosophically incompatible. LifeNews.com reprinted it under the title “I Am Against Abortion […]
At last weekend’s Life/Peace/Justice conference in Philadelphia, I was honored to be part of a panel on “Secular Witness: Reaching a Changing Young Culture for Life,” alongside representatives of I Stand for Life, Pro-Life Humanists, and PLAGAL: The Pro-Life Alliance of Gays and Lesbians. It was a great conversation, and we recorded it for everyone […]

Alexa is agnostic and openly queer.] The modern social justice movement can be described as a loose union of movements that oppose institutionalized injustice in various forms—racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, and many more. It’s seen as a single movement because all […]
[Today’s guest blog post is by Nick Reynosa.] One of my first experiences ever at an abortion facility was on March 31, 2011. I arrived early, just as the workers were approaching. I remember thinking of what horrible things were set to occur that day. I was emotional about it and had a strong sense […]
[Today’s guest post by Kris Skul is part of our paid blogging program.] [See Kris’ follow-up post: “All You Need To Be Pro-Life”] Supporters of abortion sometimes insist that the principal objective of the pro-life movement is not to fight any real or perceived injustice, but rather to control female sexuality.
