Last night, the Association for Interdisciplinary Research in Values and Social Change had their annual meeting. Papers were presented on a variety of topics, including maternal mortality rates, post-abortion stress meta-analysis, and the impact of state-level abortion legislation. This was followed by a wine and cheese reception, during which I met many of our supporters […]
I’ve long said that if American women’s organizations are going to avoid obsolescence, they need to actually represent women. And since a plurality of us are pro-life, that means cutting the pro-abortion rhetoric and focusing on issues of concern to all feminists, like equal pay. So far, there are no signs of that happening. But […]
Various pro-life news outlets have highlighted this recent Washington Times op-ed. From the title, I initially thought that it would be about the millions of people who are “missing” because they were killed by Planned Parenthood before birth. Actually, the “millions” refers to dollars– it’s about a major financial discrepancy between Planned Parenthood’s records and […]
It seems to me that the sidewalk counseling movement is more religiously oriented than the pro-life movement as a whole, which probably explains why SecularProLife.org hasn’t given sidewalk counseling the attention it deserves. For that, I apologize. (Although we did try our hand at a secular sidewalk handout.) The following is an excerpt from a […]
Cartoon by J.D. Crowe of the Mobile Register.The UnChoice reminds us to reach out to fathers of aborted children who may be going through a hard time today. (Note: link contains both secular and religious resources.)
Pro-abortion censorship is nothing new. It’s much easier for them to try to silence us than to explain why, in the face of all scientific evidence to the contrary, unborn babies are “not human” or a “clump of cells.” I’d like to bring two recent incidents to your attention. First, Stand True: Christ-Centered Pro-Life was […]
I originally posted this to Facebook, but I realize that some of you are not members of our Facebook group. (You should join.) As I’ve mentioned before, I’m going to the NRLC conference in Pittsburgh next week. I plan to blog about it so that we can all learn something. Are there any workshops that […]
Following in the footsteps of the state senate, the Louisiana house of representatives has just passed a bill requiring abortion businesses to give women the chance to see ultrasounds of their children. Although some abortion businesses do ultrasounds for medical reasons, they often hide the screen from the mother, reducing the chances that she will […]
NARAL claims that pro-life pregnancy clinics are posing as abortion mills on SuperPages.com and YellowPages.com. They provide an example ad from “Problem Pregnancy,” which (shock and awe!) does not appear to exist. They want all their mindless pro-choice drones to complain until pregnancy center listings are taken down. Jill Stanek points out that there are […]
Back in February, we wrote enthusiastically about Kenya’s new constitution, which at the time supported human rights without regard to age. But as MRNewman mentioned on Friday, pro-lifers are now nervous about the revised language: “It starts out saying life begins at conception but has the well-known abortion exception known as the health of the […]
