The Supreme court today upheld the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act [NRLC.org] in a 5-4 ruling. The act will prevent abortionists from being able to partially deliver a baby, only to kill it before being fully born, usually by taking its brains out. You'd think this ban is a no-brainer, as removal of a humans' brains is such a barbaric form of killing, but many are spinning this news negatively.
"Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the only woman on the high court, said the majority's opinion 'cannot be understood as anything other than an effort to chip away a right declared again and again by this court, and with increasing comprehension of its centrality to women's lives'" (CNN.com).
This is a very big step up a long ladder to help millions to regain their right to life. Every mother has a 'right' to life, but should not have a 'right' to take away another's life, even if that other life is depending on her body for its survival. Continue your prayer that there may someday be a proper respect for life, promoted by our national government (as well as all other areas of our society!).
