The “Anti-Choice War On Women”

January 23, 2014/26 Comments/in Pro-Life Demographics, Research /by Monica Snyder

(Note: You can click on any image to see a larger version.) Every now and then I see this resurface: I’d be interested to know how they’re defining “anti-abortion leaders”… The first implication is that men shouldn’t have a say in the abortion debate, a ludicrous claim we’ve addressed before. The next implication is that the […]

Child Support

January 20, 2014/347 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

  When arguing about abortion, I’ve seen a lot of people claim “sex isn’t a contract.” Other variations of this idea include: ·        Consent to A doesn’t mean consent to B (that is, consent to sex doesn’t mean consent to reproduction).·        You clearly don’t consent to reproduce if you use birth control.·        Sex is not a […]

Why would a woman want an abortion?

December 30, 2013/66 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

A follower recently posted this clip to Secular Pro-Life’s Facebook page and asked for our thoughts. (If this link ever stops working, Youtube “Maddow Buchy”) The clip is not new–it’s from the fall of 2012–but it’s worth considering.  My first reaction was disgust at this PR disaster. An older, white male talking about how he’s […]

Abortion & Maternity Leave

December 6, 2013/3 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

This CNN piece by David Frum implies that better maternity rates and other social support for mothers causes abortion rates to drop. A woman who enjoys the most emotional and financial security and who has chosen the timing of her pregnancy will not choose abortion, even when abortion laws are liberal. A woman who is dominated, […]

“How could she not know she was pregnant?”

June 28, 2013/75 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Slate has a short piece on women who go into labor without even realizing they were pregnant to begin with: For a woman who doesn’t think she could be pregnant, many of the classic signs can be explained away. Fetal movement? It could be gas or indigestion. Morning sickness? A stomach virus. Weight gain? Bad […]

(You should be able to click on the photos to see larger versions. See additional photos here.) Several SPL supporters and I attended San Francisco’s annual Walk for Life West Coast last Saturday. The WFLWC includes an hour long rally at the Civic Center before marching down Market St. through the center of San Francisco’s […]

Lisa Harris, Abortion Provider

December 12, 2012/9 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

The Weekly Standard describes former abortion providers who have converted to the pro-life cause. I found this passage particularly compelling: In 2008, however, abortionist Lisa Harris endeavored to begin “breaking the silence” in the pages of the journal Reproductive Health Matters. When she herself was 18 weeks pregnant, Dr. Harris performed a D&E abortion on an […]

Do human beings begin at fertilization?

November 29, 2012/3 Comments/in Biology /by Monica Snyder

Hydatidiform moles occur when an egg without a nucleus gets fertilized; this fertilized egg does not have the genetic code of a human organism and will never develop into an infant. Some argue, then, that fertilization isn’t a defining moment and that it’s incorrect to say fertilized eggs are human beings. The Life Training Institute wrote […]

The “Solid” Pro-Choice Stance: Texas Freethought Convention 2012

October 29, 2012/139 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Recently Secular Pro-Life participated in an abortion debate at the Texas FreeThought Convention. Pro-life atheist Kristine Kruszelnicki and pro-choice atheist Matt Dillahunty presented their sides, questioned each other, and then answered questions from the crowd. You can watch the entire debate here. I’m pro-life, and I’d like to say the pro-life side dominated the debate, but that […]
