Lois McLatchie Miller
Writer, speaker, and thinker on issues of faith, family and freedom.
Lois McLatchie Miller serves as a senior legal communications officer at ADF International. She works with journalists and press representatives to advocate for fundamental freedoms in the “court of public opinion”, both in written pieces and through public speaking.
She was arrested in Belgium earlier this year after displaying a sign calling for the protection of children against puberty blockers alongside Canadian activist BillboardChris. (See video below).
On Monday, she is coming on to Triggernometry to discuss her arrest, abortion and her pro-life stance, freedom of speech in public and the problems with extreme liberalism.
Comment your questions for the guys to ask Lois at the end of the interview.
I am personally pro-choice but I am becoming horrified by how little people now respect what abortion is (especially at later stages). From my understanding quite a few cases are because "it's not the right time for me". How can we support families better so an unexpected pregnancy is not seen as the end of the world?
Despite being horrified by Labour's latest initiative to decriminalise abortion by the mother up to the point of birth, I have always felt that abortions in some form are a necessary evil. My concern about an outright ban on abortion in any country or state is that it will remain accessible to women with the means to travel, whilst poorer women (often those who are the most desperate to avoid the impact of having an unwanted child) are forced into the modern equivalent of a coathanger abortion. I would argue that providing a tightly regulated route to a legal abortion minimises the dangers of creating a black market. What would your counter-argument be?
