Abortion and maternal mortality: correlation is not causation
/44 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardI recently discovered an awesome website called Spurious Correlations. It uses hilarious graphs to illustrate the long-understood but frequently ignored truth that correlation is not causation. “Number of people who died by becoming tangled in their bedsheets” and “Total revenue generated by skiing facilities (US).” Clearly the ski resort industry has blood on its hands.

Two inspiring lives
/2 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardNumerous pro-life groups commented on Maya Angelou’s passing last week. Most emphasized her courage in rejecting abortion when she became pregnant at the age of 16. But the Radiance Foundation pointed out that Angelou did not speak out for other children to have the same chance at life. In fact, she fundraised for Planned Parenthood, the […]

When access and choice collide
/12 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardAlthough it’s always been a minor theme in pro-abortion advocacy, abortion “access” has been front and center lately, particularly when it comes to state requirements that abortionists have admitting privileges at local hospitals.

Five secular pro-life arguments to avoid
/28 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger[Today’s guest post by Kris Skul is part of our paid blogging program.] We already know that religious arguments against abortion are ineffective at reaching a general audience—that’s why Secular Pro-Life exists.

NARAL applauds censorship of abortion alternatives leader

One of the speakers invited to this year’s festival was Bob Lenz. I do not know Bob Lenz, but apparently he’s a Christian who is involved in suicide prevention work. Good for him. Seems like an […]
Which side is extreme?
/20 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard[Today’s guest post by Chris Rostenberg is part of our paid blogging program.] In the United States, the courts treat abortion as a constitutional right through all nine months, for any reason, and that has been the law since 1973. It’s shocking how many defenders of the Supreme Court’s abortion decisions do not know this. […]

/25 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Clinton Wilcox[Today’s guest post by Clinton Wilcox is part of our paid blogging program.] I have written several articles already giving a robust defense of what a person is. But now I’d like to talk about what I see as a key component to a person. My preferred definition of “person” comes from medieval philosopher Boethius, […]
