When the news about Kermit Gosnell first came out, I was appalled. I read the entirety of the 261 page Grand Jury Report. Afterwards, I tried to figure out just what about the case horrified me so much. Yes, he killed babies, but that’s what abortionists do. That he killed them a few weeks later […]
Today’s post is by guest author Michelle Zhang. I recently read this statement from several people on Twitter, “Today, the greatest sexual assault on women is the assault on her right to choose.” I’ve seen the comparison over and over again between rape and taking away abortion rights but that comment really hit me. In […]
If SecularProLife.org proves anything, it’s that the pro-life movement is far from monolithic. I do believe that our diversity is, on the whole, beneficial. However, we have to be careful to avoid infighting. During the initial debate over Obamacare, I was disappointed by the rift that developed regarding pro-life Democrats. Republicans campaigned very successfully on […]
Live Action continues to release undercover videos of its sex trafficking sting. In my opinion, the New Jersey video (released first) captured the most egregious behavior. Still, check out what’s coming out of Richmond, Falls Church, Roanoke, and Charlottesville. The New Jersey and Richmond videos were featured in last night’s Expose Planned Parenthood webcast, which […]
UPDATE: The language has already been changed. ORIGINAL POST: The No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act, a recent proposal that has not yet been passed, contains the usual exceptions for rape, incest, and the mother’s life. But unlike earlier legislation like the Hyde Amendment, it uses the phrase “forcible rape.” This has concerned pro- and […]
Happy Groundhogs’ Day to our American readers. Domestic News: In Georgia, lawmakers are proposing legislation to prohibit abortions after 20 weeks. Based on a similar law in Nebraska, the law would make the cutoff point the point after which science has proven that the unborn child can feel pain. Gov. Nathan Deal (R) indicated that […]
In August 2009, pro-abortion blogger Amanda Marcotte wrote an article (or, more accurately, a string of ad hominems) entitled “Birthers and Anti-Choicers: One and the Same?” She concluded by saying that “the anti-choicers have moved on to concocting theories about how Planned Parenthood is part of a child sex ring that they’re covering up…” At […]
Late Term Abortions: very controversial and very dangerous! Let me start with a late term abortion procedure called intra-cardiac injection. This procedure is done with the mother laying supine on an exam table with her abdomen cleansed. Then a spinal needle is pushed through into the uterus where it injects the late-term baby with poison. […]
Weekly guest blogger Matthew Newman, who lives in Maryland, has been keeping tabs on this case for several months. The City of Baltimore enacted an ordinance requiring pro-life pregnancy centers and clinics to post signs stating that they do not perform abortions or provide birth control services. Pro-lifers had a number of issues with this […]
Although most SecularProLife.org supporters are in the United States and Canada, I don’t want to neglect the efforts to end abortion overseas! Pro-Life NZ, an organization of pro-life youth in New Zealand, is kicking off a nationwide tour with American pro-life leaders Jill Stanek and Bryan Kemper. They hope that the tour will inspire New […]
