[Today’s post by Alycia Hartley is part of our paid blogging program. Secular Pro-Life has no official position on the display of graphic images and welcomes debate on the issue.] One of the strategies that I personally believe has divided the pro-life community more than any other is the debate over the use of graphic […]
When I first heard that Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee cited church-state separation when vetoing a bill for Choose Life license plates, I rolled my eyes.

It begins with a revolutionary identification of our inalienable rights: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These words inspired the creation of a new nation, and centuries […]
[Today’s guest post is a word of encouragement from K. M. Misener.] At times, being a pro-life advocate can be very discouraging. The abortion industry has considerable financial resources to use to aggressively market itself, and hence marketing slogans such as “choice” and “the war on women” that seem to have been carefully crafted with […]
Texas is considering legislation that would hold abortion facilities to the safety standards of other surgical facilities, require abortionists to have admitting privileges at local hospitals, and ban late-term abortions. The bill is a response to the horrific testimony of ex-employees of abortionist Douglas Karpen, also known as the “Texas Gosnell.” Photo of Texas pro-life […]
