Buffer zones: protecting women or an overreach against free speech? Lois McLatchie Miller vs Jan MacVarish hosted by Andy Kind

Should silent prayer be banned? This week on Unbelievable we’re touching on a sensitive and deeply complex issue that affects both women and men— abortion. Specifically, we’ll be discussing buffer zones outside abortion clinics, which have sparked intense debate around the world, including in the UK, where new legislation comes into effect on October 31, 2024. These zones will make it illegal to influence someone’s decision to access abortion services, including activities like prayer, within a 150-meter radius of clinics.

This conversation resonates not only in the UK but also in the US, where similar debates have unfolded. How can we balance the safety and privacy of women when they are at their most vulnerable against preserving individual freedoms of speech and religious expression.

Join Andy Kind and his two thoughtful guests who have wrestled with these matters extensively: Jan MacVarish, a pro-choice advocate supporting buffer zones, and Lois McLatchie Miller, a pro-life defender and senior legal communications officer for ADF, who advocates for religious freedom and free speech, particularly in cases like silent prayer outside clinics.
