Secular Pro-Life president Kelsey Hazzard here. As a resident of southwest Florida, I want to thank everyone on Twitter who sent encouraging messages during last week’s hurricane. I was very fortunate. My loved ones and I are all safe, and my house did not suffer any damage. Electricity in my neighborhood has been restored, the […]

The Secular Pro-Life blog is kicking off a new series! Once a month or so, we will feature a short interview with a pro-life atheist.

We asked our supporters on social media: “What are some aspects of the abortion debate you wish more people understood? And what are some aspects of the abortion debate you suspect your opposition wishes more people understood?” Here are a few of the top responses. DáSean C.: “I wish people understood pro-lifers aren’t just white […]
