Today’s post is by guest author Michelle Zhang. Saturday, September 25, 2010, marked the 30th Anniversary of the One-Child Policy in China. Lifenews.com featured an article that reminds of us the consequences of this law. For years we have heard horror stories of forced sterilization and even forced abortions.

Warning: this post contains profanity and some other things that the easily disturbed probably shouldn’t read. If you aren’t familiar with Lamebook, it’s a repository of stupid, amusing, and lame Facebook posts. (If you aren’t familiar with Facebook, we have a problem.) On Thursday, Lamebook featured a series of semi-coherent posts by “Kasey,” who was […]
Domestic News: Senator Roland Burris (D-IL) has decided to make abortion an issue as part of a new defense spending package. He’s trying to add an amendment to the defense budget that includes an end to the current restrictions of abortions on military bases.

On Monday, LifeNews.com featured an article entitled “Poll: Religion Key in Shaping Abortion Opinions, Mostly for Pro-Life People.” While I don’t necessarily agree that it showed religion to be “key,” I did find the data to be quite interesting.

An easy, free way to help the pro-life movement is to participate in research! I’d like to bring two projects to your attention. First, a Cornell student is working on a research paper regarding support for incrementalism in the pro-life movement. He is looking for blog comment threads, discussion fora, recorded conversations, etc. on this […]
Jen Roth, a longtime SecularProLife.org supporter and the co-founder of All Our Lives, was recently interviewed on Point of Inquiry, an atheist online radio program. She discusses the human rights argument against abortion, noting that this secular argument is used by religious and non-religious pro-lifers alike. I especially liked this comment, which really says it […]
From LifeNews.com: A man who had been verbally harassing pro-lifers outside a late-term abortion center in Albuquerque for days, escalated his abuse to violence yesterday by driving his large paneled delivery truck up on a curb and striking the large pro-life sign held by Bud Shaver. Shaver was unhurt in the incident but his sign […]
