[Today’s post by guest author Alycia Hartley is part of our paid blogging program.] As a resident of the Midwest, I have come to appreciate the seasons and seeing what was once dead or bare, come to life during the spring and summer. With some hesitancy, small financial investment (this means a lot for a […]
“Free speech for me– but not for thee.” That’s the title of a 1993 book by pro-life atheist Nat Hentoff. It’s also the principle at work in “buffer zone” laws, which essentially ban sidewalk counseling outside of abortion facilities. The following video gives an example of the type of speech that is banned in many states, […]
[This post comes with a massive disclaimer: I realize that the development of altruism is not a settled topic. Indeed, evolutionary psychology in general is a controversial field. But that’s what makes it so interesting!] I recently came across an NPR article entitled “Why Those Who Feel They Have Less Give More.” The piece examines […]
Over the next week, you will see frequent messages and updates from Secular Pro-Life regarding the number of people who like our Facebook page. Here’s why. A few months ago, we asked for your input on the future of Secular Pro-Life. You spoke clearly. You are in favor of expansion, and would like for SPL […]
The House of Representatives passed the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. But unsurprisingly, it’s unlikely to get anywhere in the Senate. (Elections have consequences.) Also unsurprisingly, the mainstream media coverage has been pretty sad. Mormon SPL supporter Nathaniel Givens responds to Dan Becker, who proclaims the wrath of God on all incrementalist pro-lifers: “It has […]
As a conservative Christian, this is a topic that used to embarrass me. Five years ago I never would have even considered writing an article on this topic, but ever since becoming a pro-life advocate, it was a topic that I’ve had to become comfortable with. Mostly because this is an argument that just doesn’t […]
[Today’s primer on abortion and feminism in history is by guest blogger Frank Ludwig, and is part of our paid blogging program.] While the idea of woman’s equality is probably as old as male-dominated societies and has been promoted by writers from Plato to Mary Woolstonecraft, the first notable feminist movement didn’t come into being […]
Your president Kelsey Hazzard here. Since most of my interactions with Secular Pro-Life supporters take place online, people are often surprised to learn that I’m 24 years old. This is usually followed by a compliment–“You’re so impressive! You’ve done so much for the pro-life cause at such a young age! You’re so amazing!” Katie and […]
The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which bans medically unnecessary abortions after 20 weeks, is expected to come to a vote this week in the House of Representatives. Several states have enacted similar bans (some of which are tied up in legal challenges), but this one would apply nationwide. The legislation has prompted a broader […]
[Today’s post is a news release from Live Action. The original can be found here.] Live Action has unveiled the fifth video in its new investigative series, Inhuman: Undercover in America’s Abortion Industry. The video, found at liveaction.org/inhuman, exposes a host of abortion doctors nationwide equivocating on the humanity of the child in the womb, […]
