Recently, Democrats for Life President Kristen Day questioned Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg about whether the Democratic Party welcomes pro-life Democrats. She said, in part, I am a proud pro-life Democrat. Do you want the support of pro-life Democratic voters? There are about 21 million of us. NARAL President Ilyse Hogue objected to that stat, pointing to […]
Since Roe v. Wade, there have been over 60 million abortions committed in the United States. Even if 40% of those were repeat abortions (statistics vary by year), about 36 million women have had at least one legal abortion in the past 40 years. Some current and former abortion workers have wondered where all these […]
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 […]

If we want to change hearts and minds regarding abortion, it’s helpful to know what’s converted people in the past. Recently we asked our Facebook followers, “Did you or someone you’re close to go from being pro-choice to pro-life? If so, what changed your mind?” We got some amazing answers, and there were definitely some consistent […]
NARAL Pro-Choice America posted a video featuring Bill Nye giving his views on abortion. Throughout the roughly four and a half minutes, Nye says pro-lifers have a “deep scientific lack of understanding” and hold positions “based on bad science.” He thinks we anti-abortion folk “apparently literally don’t know what you’re talking about” (as opposed to […]
Brat Fest is an annual festival that takes place in Madison, Wisconsin every year to raise money for charity. One of the speakers invited to this year’s festival was Bob Lenz. I do not know Bob Lenz, but apparently he’s a Christian who is involved in suicide prevention work. Good for him. Seems like an […]
