Abortionsafety.com: New website to document safety records of abortion clinics and doctors
You’ve likely seen a new ad on our home page, as showcased above, with a link to AbortionSafety.com/donors.
The ad is sponsored by Secular ProLife, which plans to launch a new website called AbortionSafety.com in November. At present the group is seeking donations from the pro-life community to help.
Kelsey Hazzard of SPL explained to me via email:
SecularProLife.org has been around for 2 years, networking and blogging and spreading our message. We feel we’re finally in a position where we can directly serve women in crisis pregnancies….
A team of 9 pro-life activists – primarily students, some who’ve worked with SPL in the past and others who haven’t – will be doing research on abortion malpractice cases…. We’ll compile information from news reports, court documents, health authority rulings, etc., enlisting the help of local pro-life activists….
The website will be very user-friendly, allowing women to search by the name of the abortionist, the name of the abortion facility, and by state. Each entry will provide a narrative summary of the abortionist’s misdeeds, and link to source documents…. The site will also contain a page that goes into more detail about abortion risks and alternatives.
Kelsey adds, “The underlying assumption is that if women actually knew what some of these abortionists had in their pasts, they’d have to be crazy to keep their appointment!”
Please donate. ($5000 is needed to make this important website a reality.) This video features AbortionSafety.com endorsers explaining the value of the project:

Well, if the loss of your baby during an abortion will not make a woman not abort her baby, then perhaps “Kelsey adds, “The underlying assumption is that if women actually knew what some of these abortionists had in their pasts, they’d have to be crazy to keep their appointment!” will work.
One can only pray.
This ad being present on this site made me unsettled when I first saw it. I understand the point, I suppose, and I agree that it’s good to expose butchers like Goznell and the like so women will avoid them. The trouble is, there simply is no such thing as an abortionist who is not dangerous. All of them kill, which is certainly the key definition of dangerous. All of them are dangerous to the baby and if not physically dangerous to the mother, dangerous to her well-being in every other way through killing her child.
Let’s not inadvertently create the perception that some abortionists are acceptable while others are not. Abortionists who injure or kill the mother simply have two victims instead of one. Of course that’s reprehensible, unacceptable, and ought to be illegal. But abortion ought to be illegal, period, because at least one person always ends up dead. There’s nothing safe about it.
Not a bad idea. If the website creators are reading this, Christina at Real Choice is a great source of information on abortion deaths. Also, I wonder if using the term “abortionist” might cause abortion-minded women to become weary of and avoid the site, especially if they’ve received information contradictory to and have been cautioned by pro-choice activists and clinic workers not to listen to pro-life information and websites. Sometimes when counseling abortion-minded women, information is better received when we use more neutral terms, such as “abortion provider,” instead of “abortionist” or “abortion mill” and ”embryo” and “fetus” when discussing developmental aspects of the unborn baby, as this avoids causing defensivemess and arguments over semantics (especially if the client self-identifies as pro-choice). This is an approach I’ve seen both pro-life unplanned pregnancy websites and PRCs use.
Abortion should NOT be safe or legal. ALL abortionists are killers and all abortion mills are Houses of Horror. No woman should EVER be counseled to get an abortion. Maybe you need to be secular to get it.
I assure you all, nothing on this website is going to encourage anyone to have an abortion.
Kelsey, I believe you. At first glance I thought the purpose of the site was to ‘recommend’ abortion clinics. After second glance (viewing the testimonials) I think this site would benefit abortion bound women.
Lee,
There was something you said on a past thread and I wanted to bring it up. On April 15th you saidou said:
How often in scripture does Jesus quote scripture? Very seldom
Do you recall this passage below?
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” But he answered, “It is written,
“‘Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,
“‘He will command his angels concerning you,’
and
“‘On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.’”
Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’” Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Be gone, Satan! For it is written,
“‘You shall worship the Lord your God
and him only shall you serve.’”
Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and were ministering to him.
Matthew 4:1-11
Matthew 4:1-11 is just one that jumped out at me, and I could show you many, many,many other times Jesus quoted scripture. Are you a practicing Christian? Have you ever read the Bible? Where did you ever get such a misguided idea?
