NARAL, one of America’s most prominent abortion advocacy groups, has released its annual report card, ranking states on their adherence to NARAL’s agenda. This grade is supposedly based on a state’s friendliness toward “reproductive rights,” a phrase often abused as a euphemism for abortion. I’ll spare you a detailed statistical analysis (although if you have […]
At Vanderbilt University, pro-life nursing candidates are celebrating a change in the university’s admissions and conscience policy. The school’s application process had included a statement that nursing students in the women’s health track “will be expected to care for women undergoing termination of pregnancy,” and that students unwilling to be complicit in abortions should apply […]
Apologies for missing posts the last few days. As I wrote on Wednesday, I’ve been traveling abroad, and my flight plans have gotten a bit convoluted. I’ll be back in the United States soon, at which point the Pro-Life News of the Day will hopefully start living up to its name again!
How many years in prison do you think an anti-abortion activist would get for placing a fake bomb at an abortion facility? Ten? Five? Surely not zero. When it’s a pro-abortion activist, though, all she gets is probation! Linda Meek, the director of the Reproductive Services abortion center, pleaded guilty in October to charges of […]
I have been visiting pro-life friends in New Zealand for the past week and thought I’d share my observations with you. Naturally these are generalizations, but if something is wildly wrong, I’m sure that Kiwis will correct me in the comments section. In the United States, people typically assume that a pro-life group is Christian […]
Pennsylvania recorded a 3.9% drop in abortions in 2009. Pro-lifers in the state attribute the decrease to legislative efforts, particularly the Alternatives to Abortion program. Still, there’s a long way to go: 37,284 babies were killed in the state’s 24 abortion centers. The Susan B. Anthony List is co-hosting the Republican National Committee’s chairman debate […]
I anticipate having limited internet access this week, so I may skip a day or two. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Plenty of pro-life blogs are reviewing the year’s top stories. From Live Action’s investigation of medical lies in Planned Parenthood abortion counseling to the passage of Obamacare, 2010 has certainly been an eventful year. It’s been a banner year for us at SecularProLife.org as well. In only our second year of existence (we were founded […]
I’ve struggled with how to approach this post. I don’t put much stock in the “war on Christmas,” but it does seem silly to pretend that people are merely celebrating “the holidays.” In fact, I’ve noticed that many of our atheist members are preparing to celebrate Christmas with their families. (No suprise there, really: most […]
Pro-life advocacy groups and members of Congress put a lot of emphasis on Supreme Court nominations, and for good reason. Only the Supreme Court can overturn Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, which would allow pro-life states to legally protect unborn children before the arbitrary point of viability. It’s easy to forget the important […]
