An easy, free way to help the pro-life movement is to participate in research! I’d like to bring two projects to your attention. First, a Cornell student is working on a research paper regarding support for incrementalism in the pro-life movement.

Jen Roth, a longtime SecularProLife.org supporter and the co-founder of All Our Lives, was recently interviewed on Point of Inquiry, an atheist online radio program. She discusses the human rights argument against abortion, noting that this secular argument is used by religious and non-religious pro-lifers alike.

It has now arrived, and the figures show that Planned Parenthood has focused more on abortions and less on its supposed core services. (The total number of abortions done in the United States is decreasing.) The new Planned Parenthood figures show […]
LifeNews.com reports that Chen Guangcheng, a Nobel Peace Prize nominee who has spent the last four years in prison for his exposure of human rights abuses against women and unborn children, may be released this week. Chen Guangcheng received international support when he was jailed on bogus charges after revealing to the world an extensive […]
Students for Life of America asks this seemingly simple question, but finds that the definition of social justice is more complex and contentious than you might think.
