Libertarians for Life

I have discovered a new website that I thought I'd bring to your attention: Libertarians for Life. They have been around since 1976 so I'm a bit late in discovering them! Here is a clip from their self-description:

In 1976, when she became pro-life, Doris Gordon founded Libertarians for Life "because some libertarian had to blow the whistle."

As libertarians, LFL's interest in the abortion debate is in everyone's unalienable rights. LFL's reasoning is philosophical, not religious. Some LFL associates are religious; others, such as Gordon, are atheists.

LFL focuses mainly on two central points: personhood (what "person" means, and why all preborn children are persons); and parental obligation (how parents incur it). From our answers we conclude that prenatal children have the right to the protection of the law.



Check it out! There's some great stuff to read there!
