Why Are Christians Pro-life?
What is the anchoring belief of pro-lifers? All pro-life conviction is rooted in the eternal truth that humans are made in the image of God, reflecting God’s image equally. Therefore each person is equally valuable, without qualification, from the womb to the tomb. Equal human value is precisely Jesus’ point in the parable of the
Pro-life Employers Attacked By NY Legislation
On January 22, 2019, under the cover of the now infamous Reproductive Health Act, New York’s legislature passed SB 660, otherwise known as the “Boss Bill.” It now awaits Governor Cuomo’s signature.

NY Abortion Laws Give Pro-Lifers Opportunity
When New York’s legislature passed the now infamous Reproductive Health Act (RHA) in January, the nation staggered and drew back in shame and horror. People are shocked and disgusted at the barbarity of a State legislature applauding the fabricated human right to kill preborn boys and girls. It was as if people of conscience suddenly
The Hidden Impact of NY’s Reproductive Health Act
New York did not actually legalize late-term abortion via the Reproductive Health Act. Late-term abortion has always been legally available to women in NY based on the broadly defined category of the health of the mother. The material change is that the new law defined abortion as a human right. On that point there is
New York to Investigate Non-Profit Pregnancy Centers?
New York State is considering a measure targeting small non-profit pregnancy centers for investigation. The sponsors of the bill say that these organizations 1) “pressure women not to seek prenatal care or abortion services” and 2) “attract pregnant people by offering free services such as ultrasounds and counseling.” A responsible journalist might ask: Where are
