In the wake of the mass shooting that killed at least fifty people at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Secular Pro-Life reaffirms its strong support for LGBT people. The right to life is inalienable, and certainly not conditioned upon any person’s sexuality. Many of our members are queer and we mourn this affront to […]

Today, North Carolina Republicans face a primary choice between Rep. Renee Ellmers and Rep. George Holding. Both are incumbents; due to redistricting, only one can return to the House. Rep. Ellmers had the support of the pro-life movement when she first came to the Hill in 2010. That support evaporated early last year, when Rep. […]

Secular Pro-Life president Kelsey Hazzard speaking. I hope you don’t mind me being a little more personal than I usually am on this blog. Although I’ve been an atheist for years, I grew up in the United Methodist church. It’s not a fire-and-brimstone denomination. I’m fortunate in that my memories of church are mostly positive: […]

The first-ever Pro-Life Women’s Conference will take place Friday, June 24 through Sunday, June 26 at the Hyatt Regency Dallas.

Today’s advice seeker writes to Secular Pro-Life: I’m a married mom who is currently pregnant. I needed a medical verification of pregnancy for insurance, so I went to a free pregnancy center. I received the verification, but first they asked me for a lot of information that I felt was intrusive given my situation. I […]
