New Study Sheds Light on Prenatal Cognition

June 16, 2017/0 Comments/in Biology, Research /by Kelsey Hazzard

[Today’s guest post by Caitlin Fikes is part of Secular Pro-Life’s paid blogging program.] I believe that there is a common and insidious cultural misconception with regards to fetuses: the subtle idea that birth is the true beginning of a human’s life, not only because that is when he or she is first socially acknowledged […]

Poll: Many Americans call themselves “pro-choice” but want increased abortion restrictions

March 7, 2017/0 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

I’m a few months late to this poll—which was conducted from December 12 through 16 of last year—but better late than never. There are a few reasons that this particular poll is worth discussing. First, it was conducted by Marist College, which has an A grade from FiveThirtyEight (indicating low bias). Second, it asked about […]

A survey of infanticide after attemped abortion

December 20, 2016/0 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Sarah Terzo

[Today’s guest post by Sarah Terzo is part of our paid blogging program.] In June 2015, the European Centre for Law and Justice released a report that compiled first-hand accounts of babies born alive after abortions who were then killed by doctors. The report, which can be found in its entirety here, has a number […]

Another factor in the plummeting abortion rate

August 12, 2016/0 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Abortion reporting is always a few years behind; the best data we have is from 2011. In that year, the abortion rate in the United States hit a record low. As the pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute notes, abortion rates have fallen even in states that are traditionally hostile to the right to life. The plummeting demand […]

What do Americans think about abortion?

March 4, 2014/6 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

[Today’s guest post by Nathaniel Givens originally appeared on his personal blog, Difficult Run.] Will Saletan, the national correspondent at Slate, is a smart and independent thinker on the abortion issue. He even wrote a controversial but highly regarded book called Bearing Right: How Conservatives Won the Abortion War. Peter Beinart, editor of The New […]

The “Anti-Choice War On Women”

January 23, 2014/26 Comments/in Pro-Life Demographics, Research /by Monica Snyder

(Note: You can click on any image to see a larger version.) Every now and then I see this resurface: I’d be interested to know how they’re defining “anti-abortion leaders”… The first implication is that men shouldn’t have a say in the abortion debate, a ludicrous claim we’ve addressed before. The next implication is that the […]

The Pro-Life Generation

January 6, 2014/2 Comments/in Pro-Life Demographics, Research /by Kelsey Hazzard

A Secular Pro-Life member recently asked for the source of the claim that young Americans are more pro-life than their older counterparts (which has earned us the moniker “the pro-life generation”). The claim is not based on one particular survey, but on a series of polls over several years. For everyone’s convenience, this blog post […]

The ABC Link

July 20, 2012/17 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Disclaimer. Even if all pro-lifers used secular reasoning, there is plenty of room for disagreement in the multi-faceted abortion debate.  Secular Pro-Life takes formal stances on a few issues, but where SPL members—especially SPL leadership—disagree, SPL declines to take an official position.  (See, for example, the rape exception.) The alleged link between abortion and breast […]

Poll Finds Decrease in Self-Described “Pro-Choicers”

May 24, 2012/8 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

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 […]

1 in 7 OB / Gyns Perform Abortions

August 24, 2011/2 Comments/in Research, Uncategorized /by Matthew Newman

A study of 1,031 obstetricians / gynecologists by Obstetrics & Gynecology magazine found that 1 in 7 Ob / Gyns perform abortions. This is a decrease from a study they performed in 2008, where they found 22% had performed abortions. People on both sides of the issue have some issue with the statistics, so check […]
