What are your favorite atheist, or just secular, pro-life resources?

Web links are obviously easiest, but if there are books or journal articles or other offline resources you like, please feel free to list those as well. Also, feel free to tout your own sites; I plan to. :)

To start:

* Libertarians for Life has some very good material in its library, all secular
* The Atheist & Agnostic Pro-Life League
* In 2000, I debated Richard Carrier on abortion at the Secular Web. I would make some different arguments now, but I think it's still a decent resource.
* My blog: Turn the Clock Forward
* Feminist, Pro-Life, and Atheist by Kathryn Reed
* The Indivisible Fight for Life by Nat Hentoff
Well, I'll plug this: , although I've got a domain name now, but I haven't set it up yet (update soon).

I like this too:

It has a lot of great stuff.
Let's try that again...

I've tried to contact The Atheist & Agnostic Pro-Life League via hotmail and they never replied.
Ooooh. Is that yours?
Another site: Pro-Life Union for Secularity. This seems to be the new home of the site Simon JM pointed to.
Here is an article about our existence (haha) by Newsweek
http://www.newsweek.com/id/171240

An article giving an Atheist's account of his conversion from Pro-Choice to Pro-Life. His name is David Harsanyi. The article, includes some useful stats on the decline of Pro-Lifers towards Pro-Choice from 1995 t0 2006 (a major bummer). I intend to follow up the legitimacy of these stats sometime hopefully soon enough.

I found this piece by Judy Farris to contain strong arguments. I still need to follow up with a bio/background check on her, but this peice is great nevertheless.

I haven't pinpointed exact evidence of whether or not Heather Mac Donald, a writer for the Manhattan Institute, is Pro-Life, but this article and much of her work suggests she she is. She is very vocal in the public sphere on Atheist Conservative issues. I must find out.

Her Bio (There is an hour long Youtube video as well, which I will review to see if she mentions it there.)

Libertarians for life is my favorite.

A great scientific research paper on when human life begins-

This site is not necessarily prolife but it's a great resource to use for embryology/fetology-

http://www.ehd.org/

 

Secular Pro-life is another great resource. They have a facebook page too!

http://secularprolife.org/

I just took a quick look at it, but it looks really good.  
I'm going to print it out so I can underline & whatnot.  
IMO, the key has always been (p.6),
"Is a human zygote a human organism?" 
Unfortunately, 'organism' doesn't have a crystal clear def.

Also, it may be nitpicking, but I really hate when people say
that a fertilized egg is an egg (as if a frozen liquid is still
liquid) & there may be some good stuff on that too.        :)

Hello fellow atheists!  I have joined this site in an attempt to find other rational individuals, such as myself, and to promote a current charity drive that I am trying to get going for the Oklahoma tornado victims.  I have managed to get many groups from around my area, including the Beyond Belief Foundation to back me on this endeavor. 

I am located in Newnan, Ga and have my own atheist group entitled "Coweta County Atheists".  I am currently being backed by Spaulding Co.…

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:37pm 0 Comments

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:28pm 2 Comments

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"!  .

 

 

No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes.  'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands.  Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…
