Does a New Poll Prove an Old Pro-Choice Claim?

August 31, 2019 /0 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

With a new poll out from two organizations called Supermajority and PerryUndem, Jill Filipovic says she has come to the conclusion that pro-lifers are pro-life because they want to control women. In order for that to be a valid conclusion, the following pieces all have to fit together in the way that Filipovic says they […]

A look at a major New York Times article

January 14, 2019 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

On December 28, 2018, the New York Times published a 13,500-word article attributed to its editorial board. A momentous question underlying this article almost receives the recognition it deserves from the authors. In the third paragraph they say this much about the question: a deep shift in American society, away from a centuries-long tradition in […]

What’s wrong with killing?

February 12, 2018 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

Suppose a cute toddler is playing in front of us, riding on a toy truck, laughing and having a great time. She may be my child, or she may be anyone’s child. And suppose I kill that toddler before your eyes. You will all be shocked, certainly. What I want to dig into here is […]

“Is it possible to be pro-choice and feminist?”

May 3, 2017 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

[Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] So far as I know, the recent “Why Can’t a Feminist Be Pro-Life?” panel at the Catholic University of America marked the first time that pro-choice feminists, who are the feminist mainstream, entered a formal setting where they found undeniable confirmation of the […]

A Pro-Life Feminist Balance Sheet

February 16, 2017 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

[Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] Pro-life feminism claims that the institution of legal abortion is bad for women. Is it true? This article will focus on the U.S., and the thesis will be: the population of American women can be divided into three groups. The first group will […]

The Democratic National Convention: Pro-Choice, or Pro-Abortion?

Screenshot: Ilyse Hogue, who is the president of NARAL and the mother of an aborted baby, speaks at the Democratic National Convention  [Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] Ilyse Hogue is said to have made history on July 24, 2016 as the first person to talk about her own […]

Next Steps for the Pro-Life Feminist Movement

February 29, 2016 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

[Today’s post is co-authored by Acyutananda and Kelsey Hazzard.] The idea that legal abortion is a symptom of and reinforces a patriarchal, misogynistic social system is not new. In our awareness, it goes back at least to the founders of Feminists for Life. However, there has been a flowering just recently of fresh thinking on […]

What babies don’t know can’t hurt them, right?

January 4, 2016 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

[Today’s post is co-authored by SPL president Kelsey Hazzard and guest writer Acyutananda as part of our paid blogging program.] Most abortion advocates concede that killing a person is normally wrong, but contend that unborn humans are not persons. Typically they point to the embryo’s lack of present consciousness. But some such advocates apparently realized […]

Only a “Potential” Person?

July 31, 2015 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

Meme via Live Action [Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] “A woman is an actual, living, breathing person, and a zygote/embryo/ fetus is only a potential person.” This statement is a staple feature of discussions about abortion, and the meaning is always that the woman can rightfully abort the […]

Abortion as Problem-Solving through Might Makes Right

July 6, 2015 /0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

The one person who can’t fight back. [Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] Let’s look at abortion in terms of problem-solving. What is the problem? Unwanted pregnancies. (Unwanted by someone – the pregnant woman often, but not always, being one of those persons.) Next we have to ask, what […]
