American Life League (ALL) describes it as "unfortunate" that most national medical research or advocacy groups support some form of unethical/anti-life position. The pro-life group wants people to know that just because an organization is doing good things or just because it has a national name, it might be practicing immoral practices that go undetected.
"It's important that people know that," spokesman Hugh Brown tells AFN, "because the reason that these organizations exist is to do good works. But you can't serve two masters – and honestly, many of them won't exist without your support."
Brown says people, once they know about the group, can take a twofold approach. "You can stop giving, but that's a hammer," he shares. "The most important thing to do is to hold them accountable, to get in touch with these organizations and ask why."
On its website, American Life League provides a list of numerous charities and descriptions where they stand on life issues.
"We live in a time where morality [is] subjective now. There's no right, there's no wrong. It's whatever feels good for you," says Brown. "That's a lie … and it's important that we reclaim truth. It's important that we defend the moral high ground."
Among the high-profile organizations ALL deems not worthy of support by pro-lifers? American Red Cross, Catholic Relief Services, March of Dimes, Salvation Army, United Way, and YMCA/YWCA. American Life League's full research is available here.
