The Associated Press recently published an advertisement, masquerading as a news article, about Americans buying the abortion drugs mifepristone and misoprostol online — despite not being pregnant. The idea is that they are committed to killing any child they might conceive in the future, so they want to have the lethal medication on hand, lest […]
I’ve recently been seeing headlines like these: On January 2, 2024, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on Texas v Becerra, a case about what the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) can require of hospitals.

Once 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.) Although Secular Pro-Life is not exclusively for atheists, historically atheists have played a key role in the organization. As atheists become more prominent in the pro-life movement generally, we’re excited for the opportunity […]

Later that same month we endorsed the Post-Roe Future vision statement, and Kelsey spoke on a panel at St. Thomas University School of Law. In […]
In years past we would feature the most popular graphics we posted to our Facebook account. This year we compared the number of accounts reached between Facebook and Instagram. Turns out most of our top graphics were still on Facebook, but Instagram has started sneaking in the top 10. (Sometimes the Instagram reels also surpass […]

In a post-Dobbs world where the abortion debate continues, Secular Pro-Life has furthered our outreach to online communities. One such way was spreading even more content on TikTok, where SPL members quickly dispel myths, share facts, and touch upon hard topics related to human rights and abortion. With great hope for the next year, we […]
We posed this question to our followers on social media: You’re at your in-laws for Christmas dinner when your spouse’s cousin, in front of everyone, asks you to explain why you’re against abortion. How do you respond? Here are a few of the top responses, lightly edited for clarity. Josh P.: “Killing babies is bad, […]
