I frequently find myself in abortion arguments with people who just cannot wrap their minds around the idea that I think the fetus deserves human rights. It’s like they believe I just bring up fetal rights as a red herring to distract from my supposed hatred of women. They do not believe the fetus deserves […]
New independent film October Baby hit theaters this weekend. This film shares the story of a young lady who finds out she is adopted after her mother tried to abort her. . . Despite the film being in a limited number of theaters it ranked 9th in top 10 films during its weekend release. I encourage […]
Last Friday, Secular Pro-Life reported that the Earl Macke School of Law at Drexel University was encouraging its students to participate in pro-abortion “public service” projects. One of these projects demonstrated an incredible ignorance of First Amendment law. The same day the story broke, I wrote an email to Karen Pearlman Raab, the school’s Director […]
[Today’s post is by SPL member Megan Hamrick.] It’s World Down Syndrome Day! 9 out of 10 of these beautiful children are never born because of abortion. And even after birth, there are those who believe they are better off dead; that they are drains on our society, that they are not real living people. […]
While the terms “pro-life” and “pro-choice” are clearly open for interpretation, I’ve had the impression that, generally, “pro-life” people think abortion should be illegal except in cases that threaten the mother’s life (and perhaps in cases of rape*) and “pro-choice” people generally think abortion should be legal throughout pregnancy. My impressions are due partially to […]

Backstory here. Josiah is affiliated with the Christian group Abolitionist Society of Oklahoma. You’ve probably seen their “Abolish Human Abortion” graphics on Facebook; they’re excellent with social media.
Kelsey speaking. It’s hard to believe that my graduation from the University of Virginia School of Law is just two months away! In light of this approaching milestone, I decided to revisit an issue from early in my law school career: namely, whether or not the Earle Mack School of Law at Drexel University in […]
So it’s pretty ridiculous how many times I’ve heard this: If you want to understand a pro-lifer’s perspective, take any argument about abortion and substitute “fetus” with “3-year-old.” Try this with me: “If you don’t like killing 3-year-olds, then don’t kill any. But don’t try to impose your beliefs on me!” See what happens […]
