Once a month or so, the Secular Pro-Life blog features a short interview with a pro-life atheist or agnostic. (See the full series of interviews here.) Although Secular Pro-Life is not exclusively for atheists and agnostics, historically they have played a key role in the organization.

Checking in on the Trump Veepstakes

July 8, 2024 in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Donald Trump is leading in the polls, and he is expected to announce his running mate soon. Although President Trump nominated Supreme Court Justices who recognized Roe v. Wade as bad law, his more recent comments make it clear that he does not support the right to life for all unborn Americans. (Hey, don’t say […]

Fact-Checking the AP Fact Check

July 1, 2024 in Later Abortion, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

The Associated Press, in its fact check of last Thursday’s presidential debate, had this to say: TRUMP: “The problem they have is they’re radical because they will take the life of a child in the eighth month, the ninth month, and even after birth, after birth.” THE FACTS: Trump inaccurately referred to abortions after birth. Infanticide […]

We asked our supporters on social media: “An atheist in a very pro-choice community wants to start being more upfront with her friends about her pro-life views.

SCOTUS Decision Allows Mail-Order Abortions to Continue

June 14, 2024 in Abortion pills, Legislation, laws, & court cases, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Yesterday the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the FDA in Food and Drug Administration v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine. The Court found that the AHM lacked standing to challenge the FDA’s regulatory changes to the abortion drug mifepristone. The decision was unanimous and Justice Kavanaugh wrote the opinion. From the drug’s approval in 2000 […]

We Asked, You Answered: Dealing with Trolls

June 7, 2024 in Dialogue strategy, Uncategorized, We Asked You Answered /by Kelsey Hazzard

Ah, online debating. Sometimes it’s a great way to strong-man the opposition, change hearts and minds, and even spare someone from death by abortion.
