As TIME reports, researchers at the Centre for Reproductive Health at the University of Edinburgh have discovered a gene (Katnal1) that appears to be crucial to sperm production. They found that mice with mutations in Katnal1 are infertile. If a drug can be developed to target Katnal1, the drug could serve as a non-hormonal, reversible, […]
[Our first post by guest blogger LN.] I completely agree with pro-choice writer Allison Benedikt. In her article, “Why Pro-Choicers Should Be OK With Sex-Selection Abortions,” she points out that pro-choicers feeling squeamish about a particular reason for having an abortion makes no sense. She’s right. This is pretty elementary stuff: The pro-choice movement is […]
Thank you, Holmes. It’s very easy to form an opinion based on emotion or partial facts, and then cling to that opinion and filter further information accordingly (see “confirmation bias“). I would like the pro-life movement as a whole, and Secular Pro-Life particularly, to transcend this problem. I want ours to be an environment […]
First, it makes no sense to tell people who believe human rights are being violated to mind their own business. (See also: “Don’t like abortion? Don’t have one.”) Second, views on abortion show no correlation to gender. Even if we could forever silence men on the topic, the abortion debate would remain intractable. Third, it’s […]
This week Live Action released two new undercover investigations surrounding Planned Parenthood. However, this time Planned Parenthood is aiding woman in their pursuit of gender discrimination against female children in the womb. Although we have been aware of Planned Parenthood’s involvement in gendercide for a number of years, these videos are shocking. Please watch Live Action’s latest investigations below. […]
Last week we discussed a recent Gallup poll showing that the number of Americans calling themselves “pro-choice” is at an all-time low. William Saleton at Slate.com considered the same poll when asking, “Why are Americans becoming more liberal on homosexuality but not on abortion?” He points out: At best, support for abortion is barely holding […]
[Today’s post is written by guest blogger Leslie.] Sometimes life puts me in situations that cause me to remember what I knew all along—that love, food, shelter, and clothing are the only real essentials. Sometimes I am reminded of this when I read about survivors of natural disasters. When people are escaping with only the […]
How women feel about their abortions varies. Sometimes the pro-life side underscores the negative mental and emotional impacts for post-abortive women. Pro-choice advocates often reject such claims and instead suggest women frequently feel relief after an abortion. Other times the pro-choice side claims most women don’t even want abortions, but feel they have no choice due […]
Since arriving at my parents’ home in Florida a few days ago, I have been bombarded by radio and print advertisements concerning Health Management Associates (HMA), which owns dozens of hospitals across the country. The advertisements attack HMA for basing executive pay solely on profits, “even though HMA has been plagued by multiple government investigations, lawsuits, and scandals.” Sure […]
A new Gallup poll found that the number of Americans describing themselves as “pro-choice” has hit a record low of 41% (compared to 50% who call themselves “pro-life”). The amounts of Democrats describing themselves as “pro-choice” versus “pro-life” has remained relatively stable over the last year. Self-described “pro-life” Republicans have increased from 68% to […]
