Caroline Wharton | August 8, 2023
What does a pro-life leader, priest, and military veteran share in common? In England, all three have been recently arrested for the same “crime” of silently praying in front of an abortion facility. As threats to American free speech — particularly pro-life speech — are often taken too lightly, could this be where the United States is heading, as well?

Caroline Wharton | August 2, 2023
Did you know that abortion coercion has affected American women for a long time — even back in the golden age of old Hollywood?

Washington Post Posits Life is Problem-Free When You’re Child-Free — Here’s Their Homework Assignment
Caroline Wharton | August 2, 2023
Is the grass always greener on the other side? That depends on who you ask — and if you’re asking the abortion lobby, the answer is yes.

Without them,

Who Benefits Economically from Abortion? Not Mothers
Caroline Wharton | August 1, 2023
GUEST POST: Abortion activists like to present abortion organizations as charities concerned with women’s health.

Caroline Wharton | July 31, 2023
GUEST POST: The “Free the Pill” movement is about freeing up producers to make more money – not about women’s health or autonomy – because there is nothing liberating about a synthetic hormone designed to violate natural, feminine biology. When the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved “Opill” (norgestrel) for over the counter (OTC) use, the agency showed blatant

How the Abortion Industry Has Held Feminism Hostage for 50 Years
Caroline Wharton | July 31, 2023
GUEST POST: For the past half-century, the so-called “right” to kill preborn babies has become synonymous with feminism. Abortion was not always part of feminism, and it need not be now. How did feminism become captive to the horrific idea that women’s success requires ending the lives of their children? The origins of feminism included opposition to abortion. Beginning with
