Graphic via UnChoice April 12-19 is coerced abortion awareness week. At Secular Pro-Life, we recognize the harm that coerced abortion causes both to women and their preborn children. Coerced abortion can take many forms. Perhaps the best known is state-sponsored coerced abortion in China. Organizations working to end this human rights atrocity include Women’s Rights […]
Protestor’s sign reads “Choice is the American Way” Raise your hand if you’ve heard this argument in favor of Roe v. Wade: If a government can force women to gestate, it can also force them to abort. There’s some pathos here. It’s a nice, balanced sentence that sounds good to the ear. But strip the pathos […]
This week marked a tragic anniversary: 33 years of the one-child policy in China. This barbaric policy has harmed hundreds of millions of people. Abortion is a major component of the policy, whether it is “chosen” by women who know that they will only have one shot at motherhood, or physically enforced by government goons. […]
Bad News Pro-lifers were right to be skeptical of claims that China had stopped using abortion to enforce its one child policy. Reports have surfaced that Song Ping’an, six months pregnant, was kidnapped by the Family Planning Police, who killed her unborn child. Song has suffered severe mental trauma (no kidding) that has made it […]
Often in order for a person to be upset over something, their thinking has to be altered in some way or another, whether it be by a person’s story, a personal experience, or even a picture. Unfortunately the majority of us do not care about the major issues of our day until we are confronted […]
Chen Guangcheng, blind opponent of forced abortion and sterilization, escaped 19 month house arrest by Chinese official on April 22. Many of you already know about Cheng as he has been all over the news the last days, and some of people have been following this heroic man’s story other the years. Brief Background: Chen […]
[Today’s piece, by Eleanore S., is cross-posted from her blog Naturally Pro-Life.] I recently happened upon this post at “The Abortioneers,” a blog that chronicles the experiences of various people who work directly in the abortion industry. This particular writer was working at an abortion clinic in the South at the time Hurricane Katrina hit, […]
[Editor’s note: Today’s feature is a guest post by Sarah Terzo, who runs ClinicQuotes.com.] It is not unusual for men to try to coerce their partners into having an unwanted abortion. In fact, according to the Elliot Institute, which deals with post-abortive women, 64% of women who have abortions claim that they were pressured by […]
I find it ironic that today we celebrate Women’s Equality Day and commemorate the 91st anniversary of the 19th amendment made to the Constitution; the amendment that gave women the right to vote in 1920. It’s ironic to me because a hot issue this week is Vice President Biden’s statements to Chinese officials commending their One Child Policy that […]
China has announced a plan to modify its one-child policy by 2015, allowing families to give birth to two children. Pro-lifers have long criticized the one-child policy as a violation of human rights. Pro-life leaders are rightfully skeptical that a two-child policy will be much better. Steven Mosher of the Population Research Institute, a Catholic […]
