Watch the full live stream of the rally here. Multiple pro-life organizations rallied outside the offices of the US Attorney General to demand indictment of Planned Parenthood (and its business partners) for fetal organ harvesting and organ trafficking after three years of an open investigation. Signs with messages such as “PP sells body parts” put succinctly […]
[This post is a transcription of a story I told verbally.] Okay so I want to share this amazing story. First the background. In the abortion debate there’s controversy over the fetal pain issue. For a long time the prevailing scientific wisdom (though not a consensus) was that fetuses probably couldn’t feel pain before 24 […]
Secular Pro-Life strongly encourages pro-lifers from different backgrounds to seek to understand one another and form coalitions in the fight against abortion. SPL’s main focus, obviously, is on different religious backgrounds, but the longer we’ve done this work the more we’ve realized how important it is to amplify the voices of all kinds of non-traditional […]
The propagandists at Reproaction have really outdone themselves this time, hilariously arguing that there is “big money” behind “Big Pro-Life.” I wish! In reality, the abortion industry massively outspends pro-life advocates. If you’ll allow us secular folks the use of a Biblical metaphor, the abortion lobby is Goliath, claiming to be a scrawny shepherd boy […]
Over at Slate, abortion supporter Christina Cauterucci has an article about the phrase “except in the womb.” To call it an “article” is a bit generous. It’s really more of a rant. The thesis is basically “I do not like it when anti-abortion people say this.” Still, her annoyance is at least partially justified. For […]
Many of our followers know by now that SPL is run by three atheist women: Monica the conservative, Kelsey the independent, and me (Terrisa), the flaming liberal. Naturally, when Democrats for Life of America cleverly sought out a secular speaker for their national conference in Lansing, Michigan, I was happy to fulfill the role! I […]
The fourth annual Pro-Life Women’s Conference gathered 800 passionate advocates together in New Orleans, and what a weekend it was. This blog post will only capture a fraction of the amazing presentations, projects, and camaraderie. (Be sure to check out our photo album too!) I left feeling so enthusiastic about helping moms, saving babies, and defeating the exploitative […]
Original FB post here. At the time I started organizing these answers, there were about 200 comments. Many people became pro-life because of their own pregnancy experiences: Sasja: I was pro choice, and even against the gestation of embryos that showed signs of hereditary diseases or birth defects … And then I fell in love […]
Abortion will be considered unthinkable 50 years from now Vox, 4/4/19. Didn’t expect an article like this from Vox. Kansas lawmakers OK mandating notice on abortion ‘reversal’ News Tribune, 4/7/19. Notice they never say research led by “an abortion-rights doctor” or even “a pro-choice doctor” when the situation is reversed. They just say “doctor” and leave […]
In my dad’s MBA program they said you need three factors to motivate someone to take an Action X for Reward Y: The person has to actually want Reward Y. The person has to believe if they take Action X, they really will receive Reward Y. The person has to believe they are capable of […]
