[Today’s guest post by Clinton Wilcox is part of our paid blogging program.] Truth matters. I hope that I don’t come off as pretentious or pedantic with this post, because that’s not my intention.

The Pro-Life Women’s Conference will be held Friday, June 24 through Sunday, June 26 at the Hyatt Regency Dallas. Meet SPL president Kelsey Hazzard, join SPL for our “infidelicious” Sunday morning breakfast, learn about our upcoming Hyde Amendment campaign, and take in the incredible all-female speaker lineup, which includes abortion survivors, physicians, political activists, pregnancy center […]
A pro-choice friend shared this tweet recently, via Women’s Rights News on facebook: Well, Jessica, that day has arrived. SPL has never been an abstinence-only organization, but we are totally comfortable saying that men who are unprepared to deal with fatherhood should not have sex. This statement is hardly revolutionary. Men are capable of self-control, […]
Secular Pro-Life president Kelsey Hazzard speaking. I hope you don’t mind me being a little more personal than I usually am on this blog. Although I’ve been an atheist for years, I grew up in the United Methodist church. It’s not a fire-and-brimstone denomination. I’m fortunate in that my memories of church are mostly positive: […]

Today’s advice seeker writes to Secular Pro-Life: I’m a married mom who is currently pregnant. I needed a medical verification of pregnancy for insurance, so I went to a free pregnancy center. I received the verification, but first they asked me for a lot of information that I felt was intrusive given my situation. I […]
[Today’s guest post is by Alan Trahan.] For the second year in a row, I took my home-made “We’re Here, We’re Queer, We’re Pro-Life” sign out with me and my wife to March for Life on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Just like last year, it was an incredible experience. I can’t count the number of […]
Last summer, Secular Pro-Life launched Prevent Preterm, an educational campaign focusing on preventable risks for premature birth. Among them: a history of elective abortion. Prevent Preterm’s summary of the medical literature, written for laypeople and available for free here, included over 100 studies when the campaign launched. Since then, the evidence that abortion is a […]
