We Asked, You Answered: Dealing with Trolls
/in Dialogue strategy, Uncategorized, We Asked You Answered /by Kelsey HazzardAh, online debating. Sometimes it’s a great way to strong-man the opposition, change hearts and minds, and even spare someone from death by abortion. And other times, you’re rudely insulted and asked how many rape-conceived babies with Down Syndrome trapped in a burning IVF lab have YOU adopted, HUH???!? It can get a little exhausting. […]
Economic Elites Pour Millions into Abortion Advocacy
/in Pro-Life Demographics, Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardBillionaire Melinda French Gates recently made headlines for her pledge to donate hundreds of millions of dollars to groups advocating “reproductive rights.” Her statements to the press made it clear that this is a euphemism for abortion: “While I have long focused on improving contraceptive access overseas, in the post-Dobbs era, I now feel compelled […]
Ask a Pro-Life Atheist: Marko Hoare
/in Religion, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Kelsey HazzardOnce a month or so, the Secular Pro-Life blog features a short interview with a pro-life atheist. (See the full series of interviews here.)

Indiana Supreme Court Has Chance to Fix Disastrous Ruling
/in Legislation, laws, & court cases, Religion, Uncategorized /by Kelsey HazzardLast month, Secular Pro-Life sounded the alarm about a dangerous pro-abortion decision by the Court of Appeals of Indiana. That court sided with plaintiffs who wanted religious exceptions to Indiana’s pro-life law. But the court’s logic was much broader than that, opening the door to any religiously motivated homicide, regardless of the victim’s age. In […]
Recap: SPL’s 2024 Trivia Night
/in Administrative, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Monica SnyderOn May 18, we hosted Secular Pro-Life’s 2nd annual trivia night outside St. Louis, Missouri. It was fantastic. SPL’s primary mission is to advance secular arguments against abortion. But our mission includes two additional parts: make space for non-traditional (especially non-religious) pro-life people, and build interfaith coalitions (people of any faith or no faith) to […]

/in Legislation, laws, & court cases, Uncategorized /by Guest BloggerOn May 7th, New York Supreme Court Judge Daniel Doyle removed from the ballot a proposed amendment intended to enshrine the right to abortion in the New York State Constitution.
