Indeed it shouldn’t. Nearly a month ago, Reuters published “Racism is also a reproductive rights issue” by Chloe Angyal. I just came across it recently, and feel that it’s important enough to merit a response despite the passage of time. The article is worth reading in its entirety, but the thesis is: Where black children […]
Christmas is fast approaching, and much of our audience—yes, including secular folks—will be busy traveling to see family, shopping for gifts, etc. this week. Accordingly the blog is going on a hiatus. Have a very happy holiday, and we’ll see you back on December 29.
‘Tis the season for March for Life/Walk for Life planning! If you’re going to be in D.C. or San Francisco next month, be sure to meet up with Secular Pro-Life in person. Washington, D.C. The March for Life takes place on Thursday, January 22, 2015. Meet us in front of the Smithsonian “Castle” on the National […]
[Today’s guest post is by Chris Perez.] Working women of childbearing age and the public at large have taken quite an interest in the recent story of Peggy Young, a former UPS employee who alleges that she was discriminated against for being pregnant. This case has gone all the way to the Supreme Court and […]
When I first became involved in the pro-life movement, as a student at the University of Miami, our Respect Life club created UMiamiPregnancy.org. At the time, it was a pretty basic site (it looks much better now, thanks to a new class of students), but we were proud of it because we knew that it would […]
By now, you’ve probably heard about the arrest of Oklahoma abortionist Nareshkumar Patel. He “is being accused of fraud, telling women they were pregnant when they weren’t and then giving them abortion-inducing drugs.” Nothing about the abortion industry truly surprises me anymore, but this did strike me as a little odd. Are there not enough […]
[Today’s guest writer is anonymous.] It’s easy to dismiss online pro-life work as slacktivism. Sure, you might say, sharing your opinion on the internet will expose you to ad hominem attacks and insults—but if you really want to make a difference, go volunteer in the real world, reaching out to abortion-minded women. And of course […]
I’d like to think that if I were pro-choice, I wouldn’t be freaking out about abortion pill reversal. In a nutshell: a mother who takes the first pill (mifepristone) of the chemical abortion, then regrets it, is prescribed the pregnancy hormone progesterone to prevent the embryo’s death. While nobody’s suggesting it will work 100% of […]
Polls consistently show that a strong majority of self-identified non-religious Americans call themselves pro-choice. That’s in stark contrast to the American public at large, which is roughly 50-50, though leaning pro-life in recent years. Some pro-choice atheists use this polling data as evidence that the pro-choice position is correct. The argument, in a nutshell, is […]
On Wednesday, the Supreme Court heard arguments in Young v. UPS, which concerns the interpretation of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. The interpretation being advocated by the defendant would seriously undermine protections for pregnant mothers in the workplace—creating increased pressure to abort. As a result, the case attracted numerous amicus briefs, including one signed by 23 […]
