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!

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.        :)

"Okay ... the MP3 player is back, videos are back and photos are back.  Only thing which seems to be missing is member profile information at this point, though the issues that Steph pointed out earlier may or may not have been addressed."
