A Pro-Life Feminist Balance Sheet

February 16, 2017/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Acyutananda

[Today’s guest post by Acyutananda is part of our paid blogging program.] Pro-life feminism claims that the institution of legal abortion is bad for women. Is it true? This article will focus on the U.S., and the thesis will be: the population of American women can be divided into three groups. The first group will […]

Two family conversations about abortion

August 8, 2016/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

I recently read two very different articles recounting family conversations about abortion, each important in its own way. First, Broadly gives us Talking to My Grandma About Her 12 Abortions. The author’s grandmother lived in the U.S.S.R., which was the first nation to make elective abortion legal. Not only that, abortions were paid for by the […]

Why penalties for illegal abortion should not focus on the woman

April 4, 2016/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

In the last week or so the internet has blown up over Trump saying there should be some form of punishment for the woman seeking an abortion if abortion were illegal. On the SPL FB page we posted a few links suggesting that both SPL specifically and most pro-lifers in general disagree with Trump’s initial […]

Even with legal abortion access, illegal abortionists still prey on women

October 16, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Back when Kermit Gosnell’s slaughter was exposed, the abortion lobby tried valiantly to blame it on pro-lifers. This is what happens when the evil anti-choicers start winning, they said. Never mind that there were other abortionists doing business legally in Gosnell’s Philadelphia, and never mind that the abortion industry there was effectively subject to zero […]

Women in pro-life states use better contraception

July 21, 2015/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Abortion advocates like to argue that if the right to life is restored, women will just turn to illegal abortions and harm themselves. I’ve previously pointed out why that argument is silly and condescending: [Abortion advocates who make that argument] are saying that the average American woman, living after the reversal of Roe, would be […]

Precision of Language, Please, New York Times

September 5, 2014/365 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Above: the author’s son Noel, who died of natural causes in utero. [Today’s guest post by JoAnna Wahlund is part of our paid blogging program.] I recently saw the movie “The Giver” (and loved it, just as I’ve loved the book since childhood). It’s still fairly fresh in my mind, so perhaps that’s why I […]

Victory for life, and potential pitfalls, in the Lone Star State

July 28, 2014/5 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Above: underprivileged children from the Rio Grande Valley, a low-income area of Texas where abortion advocates bemoan the lack of “access” caused by HB2. This photo is from Buckner International, a faith-based charity that has been at work in the Rio Grande Valley since 1972, the year before Roe v. Wade. [Today’s guest post by […]

Which side is extreme?

May 20, 2014/20 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

[Today’s guest post by Chris Rostenberg is part of our paid blogging program.] In the United States, the courts treat abortion as a constitutional right through all nine months, for any reason, and that has been the law since 1973. It’s shocking how many defenders of the Supreme Court’s abortion decisions do not know this. […]

The “back-alley” argument, repurposed

May 13, 2014/163 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Kelsey Hazzard

Yesterday, Slate published an article by Boer Deng and Dahlia Lithwick entitled Liberal Guilt: In the push to abolish the capital punishment, opponents of the death penalty have made it less safe.  Let us first take a moment to ponder the lunacy of that headline. What, exactly, is a “safe” death penalty? Safe for whom? […]

The threat of illegal abortions doesn’t justify legal abortions
