This Christmas Eve, I’d like to share a poem with you. It comes from the Unitarian Universalist Church, which is not Christian but celebrates Christmas “to honor the message” of Jesus, which they say reflects “the inherent worth and dignity of every person.” Ironically, the Unitarian Universalist Church is pro-abortion-choice. Nevertheless, a UU friend tells […]

Pro-life students at Houghton College connect mothersin need with life-affirming resources. The Northeast is a rather hostile area for pro-lifers compared to other […]

This particular writer was working at an abortion clinic in the South at the time Hurricane Katrina hit, […]
[Today’s blog post is by SPL member Robert T.] After coming under fire from established pro-life activists for his stance that life begins at implantation, Newt Gingrich has recanted this and stated that fertilization is the moment when life begins. At least one pro-life veteran is skeptical of this sudden change. Traditionally pregnancy has been […]
Those of you who have been following this blog for a while may recall that the principal author (Secular Pro-Life president Kelsey– that’s me!) is a law student. Final exams are approaching, and unfortunately, I will not have time to give the blog the attention that it deserves for the next couple of weeks. Sorry […]
GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich has come under fire for his comment that human life begins at implantation, not fertilization. As a scientific matter, he’s plainly wrong.
