A pregnancy center in Livonia, Michigan A couple weeks ago, we blasted USA Today for a very badly worded polling question that skewed the results in a pro-Planned-Parenthood direction. So today, allow us to present an example of polling done right. The poll was sponsored by the Charlotte Lozier Institute (CLI), a pro-life research group. […]
2015 was an amazing year for Secular Pro-Life! Here are just a few of the highlights: January: Secular Pro-Life once again attended the March for Life in D.C., the Walk for Life in San Francisco, and the Students for Life of America conferences in both cities. We provided campus leaders from dozens of schools with […]
Our most liked and shared graphics of 2015 are: 10. Bill Nye vs. Inigo Montoya For more on Bill Nye’s questionable understanding (to put it charitably), check out our most-read blog post of 2015. 9. Adoptees respond to #ShoutYourAbortion with uplifting tweets 8. Parents chime in with more shouts against abortion 7. We choose the […]
Our most-read posts of 2015 are: 10. Woman blinds herself with doctor’s help. Her body, her choice? This was our take on the disturbing story of a woman who desperately wanted to become blind, and allegedly convinced a psychologist to sign on. The thought of someone having drain cleaner poured into their eyes certainly sets off […]
Yes, Virginia, secular people celebrate Christmas! Also, as a practical matter, we’ve learned that blog traffic declines precipitously this time of year, what with people spending time with their loved ones instead of debating strangers on the internet. Tidings of comfort and joy to you, and may there be peace on earth. We’ll be back […]
As a feminist pro-life organization, we believe that abortion is in many (if not most) cases a symptom of societal failures to accommodate women. Abortion is interconnected with other problems women face, including sexual assault. So far, I think many pro-life and pro-choice people would agree. But pro-life and pro-choice circles often have different vocabularies […]
Tonight at 8:00 pm Eastern, 7 Central, there will be a free webcast featuring four former abortion workers. They will discuss what they saw in the abortion industry and how they got out, and will answer questions. The webcast is sponsored by And Then There Were None, an organization run by former Planned Parenthood director […]
WSB-TV of Atlanta did what I wish more media outlets would do: it surveyed the health records of its local abortion centers and completely demolished the pro-choice narrative of poor bullied women’s health providers versus unnecessary anti-choice regulations. You need to watch this. The report opens: Unsterilized instruments, dirty linens, and expired medications: just some […]
We don’t often get explicitly political at Secular Pro-Life. Our membership includes conservatives, liberals, moderates, and libertarians. We are Democrats, Republicans, independents, and members of third parties. Secular Pro-Life doesn’t endorse candidates. We occasionally report on elections and debate the virtues of single-issue voting, but that’s about as far as it goes. But with Trump […]
Poll results are easily manipulated by the wording of the question. USA Today gives a perfect example: In the poll, 46% agreed with the statement: “Heated political rhetoric about Planned Parenthood and abortion bear some of the responsibility for what happened” in the [Colorado Springs] shooting. In contrast, 36% agreed with the statement: “The event […]
