Media coverage of the Planned Parenthood protests
/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica SnyderOn Saturday, pro-lifers across the country peacefully protested outside hundreds of Planned Parenthoods, calling for the industrial purveyor of abortion to be defunded in the wake of damning videos from the Center for Medical Progress. (Watch the videos or, if that’s too gruesome, read the transcripts at centerformedicalprogress.org.) Here’s how the media reacted: LifeNews: Thousands of […]
Why Personhood Ultimately Doesn’t Matter in the Abortion Debate
/0 Comments/in Personhood, Philosophy /by Clinton WilcoxToday, Dennis Prager released an excellent video presenting five non-religious moral arguments against abortion. Please give it a watch. I’d like to focus on the first of Prager’s five arguments, which is that even if the unborn are not persons, it doesn’t mean, ipso facto, that abortion is moral. Now, I’ve argued elsewhere that the unborn certainly […]

A Kantian Analysis of Bodily Autonomy
/1 Comment/in Bodily Rights, Philosophy /by Clinton WilcoxBodily autonomy. It’s a term that has essentially lost all meaning in our culture today. Not because it doesn’t have an objective meaning, but because the cry for “bodily autonomy” (e.g. “my body, my choice”) has been accepted uncritically as a modern slogan, despite most pro-choice people being unable to defend the proposition that bodily […]
The roots of adoption stigma
/0 Comments/in Adoption & Foster Care, Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardAbove: the socially acceptable face of adoption Adoption is a loving option. Many people wait years before they can adopt a baby. Adoption is the greatest gift you could give to a waiting family. Adoption is noble, courageous, beautiful.

The main charge that seems to be being brought against […]
