Live Action has released two more videos in its “Inhuman” series of undercover investigations. The videos, from Washington, D.C. and Phoenix, Arizona, show late-term abortion doctors who are willing to leave abortion survivors to die, in violation of the Born-Alive Infant Protection Act. In addition, abortionist Laura Mercer lies to the undercover “patient,” telling her […]
[Today’s post originally appeared on the Americans United for Life blog.] Jack McMahon, the defense attorney for Kermit Gosnell, is a friendly guy. Before the trial began, he chit-chatted with pro-lifers in the gallery. He couldn’t discuss the case, of course, but he shared funny stories and talked golf. He seemed like a nice man. […]
[Today’s post was originally published at LifeNews.] Oregon’s state senate is considering an unconstitutional bill that would interfere with the vital work of pregnancy resource centers—and if the legislation passes, it could create a precedent for even worse attacks on pro-life charities and individuals. Pro-abortion groups have been attempting to legislate against pregnancy centers for […]
A lot happened in the last couple of days. In case you missed anything, here’s where the trial currently stands. After the prosecution rested its case, the judge dismissed three of the eight counts of murder for insufficient evidence, then reinstated one. Several lesser charges were also dismissed. At the end of the day, though, […]
When you hear the phrase “abortion survivor,” you might think of someone like Melissa Ohden, who was born alive after an attempt to kill her with saline. She survived with no serious health problems and is now a prominent pro-life speaker. Tragically, most abortion survivors do not survive very long. In that vein, you might […]
Last week’s piece on terms that pro-lifers should avoid got a great response. Many of you had suggestions for additional phrases that we should remove from our vocabulary. Others had comments on the original three. Secular Pro-Life member Sarah Terzo kicked things off with a suggestion so clearly right, I’m embarrassed that I didn’t include […]
I believe that language plays a huge role in the abortion debate. And while the terms “pro-life” and “pro-choice” have been analyzed to death (no pun intended) by countless authors, there are many words and phrases, used in everyday life, that affect our cause in more subtle ways. Many are unwittingly used by pro-life advocates […]

The pro-life emphasis week is a project of Lifeline, the school’s pro-life student organization. Come by any time between 8:00am and 4:00pm for information, conversation, and goodies. This will be Secular Pro-Life’s fourth campus outreach this […]
You wouldn’t know it from the major network coverage, but abortionist Kermit Gosnell is currently facing trial for multiple counts of murder. Witnesses are giving horrifying testimony of Gosnell beheading live newborns. Kirsten Powers puts it better than I can in this USA Today piece: Infant beheadings. Severed baby feet in jars. A child […]
And Then There Were None’s “Exodus” campaign this Monday was a great success, with five people reaching out for help to leave the abortion industry! And speaking of ex-abortion workers, two former nurses have some illuminating things to say about Planned Parenthood in Delaware: Jayne Mitchell-Werbrich, former employee said, “It was just unsafe. I couldn’t […]
