As I listen to podcasts from within the atheist community (especially ones with call-in shows), I’m reminded again and again of how CRUCIAL it is to have a visible and vocal pro-life voice among atheists.
The following are just two recent podcasts I’ve recently stumbled upon (there have been others, and i hope to offer commentary to some of the better ones), which feature atheists/free-thinkers who are calling in, unsure about the matter of abortion. Who’s going to be there in the future to give the pro-life answer to their questions? We will! (I hope! – We need to get this group funded first!)
The Thinking Atheist did a podcast on closeted atheist this week, see 17:45 – 22:41 and 25:00 where a woman called in who is still waffling as a conservative on the issue of abortion. The host expressed an interest in doing a podcast on abortion in the new year – and yes I’ve already written to volunteer my help with that! 🙂
This one is a couple years older, though I just heard it this week. I can’t help hoping that “Jason in Denver” hasn’t already been swayed by the predominant pro-choice voice in our community and the flawed answers he received. One thing is certain, Jason isn’t alone. Pro-Life Humanists needs to exist – not only so that pro-life atheists have a group to belong to, but also because you and I as pro-life atheists have a unique opportunity to speak to these pro-choice and undecided men and women. They are out there and we need to go out and find them!
Thanks for being a part of this team!
