On 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 […]
Secular Pro-Life exists because of volunteers. In 2009, SPL began as a work of heart for our founder (Kelsey), myself, and a select few others. Today our organization benefits from the knowledge, time, and talents of dozens of volunteers, which is why, despite our shoestring budget, our content is viewed over a million times per […]
Last week I went to Salt Lake City to speak at the Heartbeat International conference. Heartbeat International is an association of thousands of pregnancy resource centers (PRCs) and hosts an annual conference offering affiliates detailed training on running successful PRCs. The conference is massive. This year they boasted approximately 1,300 attendees in person, plus countless […]

Let’s do it again! Join us for our only annual fundraising event! Support our amazing organization and have a […]
The pro-life organization at the University of Portland (UP), Voices For Life, invited me to give my presentation “Deconstructing Pro-Choice Myths” on March 25.

Last week I flew to Dallas for the 2024 Matthew Bulfin Educational Conference (which I refer to as the “AAPLOG conference”). Secular Pro-Life (meaning myself and fellow pro-life atheist Michelle) tabled at the conference, and additionally I had quite a few meetings and social gatherings lined up to make the most of the travel time. […]
Podcast Teaser: “We don’t want people to think, ‘the only way you can be pro-life is to register Republican and convert to Catholicism’. We want people to think ‘everybody can be pro-life’. You can be pro-life right where you are right now. You don’t have to change anything about the rest of your life to […]

I attended a networking event on Thursday; the Rehumanize meetup, March for Life, and MFL Rose Dinner on Friday; National Pro-Life Summit followed by dinner with Equal Rights Institute on Saturday; and another collaborative breakfast on Sunday before heading […]
