Why would an atheist be pro-life? In this interview of the Bioethics Babe podcast, Monica Snyder, Executive Director of Secular Pro-Life, shares the evidence-based and non-religious arguments against abortion. With a background in chemical biology and forensic science, Monica explains how science, logic, and compassion shape her pro-life views—without relying on faith. She also shares her best advice on how to dialogue with people who are pro-choice.

We discuss:

• The secular case for protecting human life from fertilization.

• Common misconceptions about fetal development.

• How to have respectful, effective dialogue with pro-choice friends, family, and colleagues.

• Why pro-life advocacy doesn’t have to be religious.

• Monica’s personal journey from science to activism.

If you’ve ever wondered whether the pro-life position requires religion, this conversation shows why it doesn’t.
