Your Choice for America This Christmas

If you are a Christian or a conservative, you are probably more optimistic than you were a year ago. Is it because Donald Trump won the election?  Maybe, but his victory is only a symptom of something I believe is more significant: an important shift in the thinking of many Americans.

A Review of Seth Gruber’s Must-See Documentary: The 1916 Project

Last month, pro-life activist Seth Gruber released a documentary called The 1916 Project. Seth, who grew up in a pro-life home, was forever changed when he saw photos of mutilated aborted babies. He was only in high school at the time, but the images impacted him so much that he has dedicated his life to educating people on the harms of abortion and turning our culture of death into a culture of life.

Don’t Be An Ageist: Part 3

Last time, we explored a simple way to show someone that "pro-life except for rape and incest" is not really pro-life. Just ask him if the same circumstance that he thinks justifies abortion would also justify the killing of a two-year-old.

Would You Do This to a Two-Year-Old? Part 2

Last time, we discussed the reason why you cannot be "pro-life except for rape and incest." This is because, if you believe that circumstances of conception can be more significant than the innate value of the baby's life, then you really do not value the baby's life according to its true nature. Life is an inestimably valuable gift from God.

“Against Abortion Except for Rape/Incest?” Part 1

As I’ve worked in pro-life ministry and talked with many people about abortion, I've noticed that the basic positions on the matter tend to fall into three main groups. On one side, I hear shouts of "my body, my choice!" and "abortion is healthcare!"

Whether motivated by a concern for public image or other various emasculating considerations, the mainstream pro-life movement has often shied away from endorsing the logical conclusion of its whole position: If the unborn are people, then killing them is murder, and thus those who kill them should receive legal repercussions.

Debunking Arguments Against Legal Personhood for the Unborn: Part 2

Fetal personhood laws could also impact contraception access, given that some members of the anti-abortion movement argue that IUDs and the emergency contraception Plan B can prevent the implantation of a fertilized egg and violate personhood, explains Mary Ziegler, an abortion law historian at the University of California, Davis, School of Law.

Debunking Arguments Against Legal Personhood for the Unborn: Part 1

For all that Dobbs did for the fight for life, there's one issue that it conspicuously avoided—whether the unborn are in fact human persons. Dobbs repeatedly made reference to supposed "fetal life," but refused to claim that this fetal life was the life of a person and thus entitled to protection.
