Recapping the Arizona Prop 139 rally

October 9, 2024/in Speeches, Discussions, Presentations, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Last week I joined SPL supporters to rally in Phoenix against Prop 139.  Arizona already allows elective abortion until 15 weeks, but apparently that’s not enough for abortion advocates. They’re fighting for the “right” to abort viable children. It’s grotesque extremism, and we had some thoughts we wanted to share.  Before the rally even began, press […]

Medical community, ableism, and Trisomy 18

August 12, 2024/in Ableism, Later Abortion, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Trisomy 18 ‘fatality’ ignores worth of born, living children with the condition Important article for your consideration: “Texas woman seeking abortion argued Trisomy 18 is lethal. Michigan children prove it’s not.” The article profiles several families in Michigan with children with Trisomy 18. One such family is that of Jewel and her daughter, CC: “CC […]

The abortion debate no one wants to have

July 3, 2024/in Ableism, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized /by Guest Blogger

Photo Credit Pavol Štugel on Unsplash The following is a reprint from The Chron. This article was authored by Patricia E. Bauer. If it’s unacceptable for William Bennett to link abortion even conversationally with a whole class of people (and, of course, it is), why then do we as a society view abortion as justified and unremarkable […]

Recap: SPL’s 2024 Trivia Night

May 24, 2024/in Administrative, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Monica Snyder

On May 18, we hosted Secular Pro-Life’s 2nd annual trivia night outside St. Louis, Missouri. It was fantastic. SPL’s primary mission is to advance secular arguments against abortion. But our mission includes two additional parts: make space for non-traditional (especially non-religious) pro-life people, and build interfaith coalitions (people of any faith or no faith) to […]

Arrow was prenatally diagnosed with Trisomy 13. Doctors didn’t tell her Arrow could survive.

March 13, 2024/in Ableism, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Guest Blogger

March is Trisomy Awareness Month. Trisomies are conditions when, instead of having the typical two copies of a chromosome, someone has three copies. Probably the most well known trisomy is Trisomy 21, or Down syndrome, which is caused by a third copy of the 21st chromosome (which is why Down Syndrome Awareness Day is 3/21). […]

“We were offered a termination 4 other times because my baby was like me.”

October 18, 2023/in Ableism, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Monica Snyder

I was moved by this Twitter thread from Nina Tame. I’m reprinting it here for your consideration. There is no room in the medical model for any neutrality around disability. It’s always a devastating tragedy. I’m an adult with Spina Bifida, a birth “defect.” I’m a horror show of a worse case scenario because I’m […]

Article laments baby boy born because of Dobbs

June 9, 2023/in They Can Hear You, Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

On May 22, 2023, In These Times published “What It’s Like to Have an Abortion Denied by Dobbs,” which profiles Lationna and her newborn son, Kinglsey. I came across the article because of this tweet: The tweet already had a whole lot of quote tweets, many of them saying terrible things about Lationna herself, what […]

Ask a Pro-Life Atheist: Brandon Taylor

February 10, 2023/in Religion, They Can Hear You, Uncategorized, Your Stories /by Kelsey Hazzard

Once a month or so, the Secular Pro-Life blog features a short interview with a pro-life atheist. (See the full series of interviews here.) Although Secular Pro-Life is not exclusively for atheists, historically atheists have played a key role in the organization. As atheists become more prominent in the pro-life movement generally, we’re excited for the […]
