Book Review: “Belabored: A Vindication of the Rights of Pregnant Women”

August 26, 2020 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

In her new book Belabored: A Vindication of the Rights of Pregnant Women, author Lyz Lenz seeks to demythologize motherhood and explore its human, physical reality. Belabored does an admirable job of examining how narratives of motherhood are constructed in American culture, and how those narratives often erase the humanity and lived experiences of marginalized […]

Yeah, about that bizarre “Satanic abortions” story

August 24, 2020 /0 Comments/in Religion /by Kelsey Hazzard

Earlier this month, you may have seen a few headlines about “Satanic abortions” that made you roll your eyes and flash back to kooky chain emails you received from your uncle in the early 2000s. Allow me to explain what is going on.  Let’s begin by clarifying the nature of the Satanic Temple, which despite […]

Shouting About Heartbeats

August 17, 2020 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Sonogram of a six-week-old human in the womb I recently stumbled upon a Facebook post by Shout Your Abortion, setting forth “language to avoid when talking about abortion” and their preferred dehumanizing euphemisms. Most of it was unsurprising (Abortion supporters hate the word “baby”? You don’t say!), but this one caught my attention:  Avoid the […]

Pro-life advocates demonstrate in front of the Colorado state capitol buildingImage credit: Respect Life Denver Facebook page “The abortion lobby, for a very long time, has tried to silo abortion by characterizing it as just a religious issue, just a theological difference of opinion. When what we’re really talking about is violence, lethal violence, against […]

MONDAY: Speak Up for Life at the Democratic National Convention

August 12, 2020 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

As you have no doubt heard, Joe Biden announced yesterday that Sen. Kamala Harris is the Democratic nominee for Vice President of the United States. The Democratic Party’s pro-abortion policies are bad enough, but the selection of Harris — who, in her previous role as Attorney General of California, pursued a legal vendetta against pro-life […]

We Asked, You Answered: Systemic Factors Driving Abortion

August 10, 2020 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized, We Asked You Answered /by Kelsey Hazzard

We recently posted on the Secular Pro-Life facebook page:  An author working on a book about political engagement asked: “Conservatives I speak with often blame the federal government for a lot of social problems, while liberals tend to blame capitalism. Viewing the issue of abortion from a systemic standpoint, what are the institutional sources of […]

In Depth: Abortion in Ireland After Repeal of the Right to Life

August 3, 2020 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

In May of 2018, Ireland tragically repealed the Eighth Amendment from its constitution, which had protected the right to life for children in the womb. The Irish abortion industry began operating in January of last year. About a month ago, the first official statistics showing the impact of repeal were released. Not surprisingly, Ireland experienced […]
