March 25th marks the three-year anniversary of when Secular Pro-Life board member and PAAU Founder Terrisa Bukovinac, along with Lauren Handy, recovered the remains of 115 abortion victims in Washington DC. As you may know, 110 of those babies received a burial shortly after the discovery. However, five of the children had injuries that suggested potential violations […]
Note: Any time I talk about women suffering after abortion, people assume I’m arguing that their suffering is a reason to outlaw abortion. In fact this isn’t my point. I do think we should outlaw elective abortion–because it kills human beings. But even if we lived in a world where outlawing abortion was impossible, I […]
If you think the following explanations and responses are important, consider supporting our work.

A recent indictment in the state of Louisiana highlights how pro-choice shield laws can protect the powerful at the expense of the vulnerable. Grand jurors in Louisiana indicted Dr. Margaret Carpenter, a New York physician, for criminal abortion after she prescribed abortion pills to the mother of a pregnant minor. The pregnant girl took the […]
Last weekend Oregon Right to Life (ORTL) invited me to open their Together We Advocate conference with Building Bridges, SPL’s keynote presentation that’s all about how to connect to people different from ourselves. Bridges aligns perfectly with two core parts of SPL’s mission: coalition building and creating space for non-traditional pro-lifers, and every single time I’ve presented it I’ve been […]
In her 2024 book, British midwife Juno Carey wrote about working in two abortion facilities over the years. Carey worked as a midwife before taking her first job in the abortion industry. In Great Britain, abortion is legal through the 24th week of pregnancy, or until birth if the baby is disabled or the pregnant […]
Once a month or so, the Secular Pro-Life blog features a short interview with a pro-life atheist or agnostic. (See the full series of interviews here.) Although Secular Pro-Life is not exclusively for atheists and agnostics, historically they have played a key role in the organization. As they become more prominent in the pro-life movement generally, we’re […]
