Welcome to Bright Point, daily look at an ever-changing culture through the lens of unchanging

truth.

The Colson Center, I'm John Stone Street.

Fifty years ago, January 22, 1973, the US Supreme Court fabricated the so-called

right to abortion out of thin air.

This travesty of justice, which enabled the deaths of tens of millions of innocent little

souls, deserves a place among the absolute worst legal decisions in American history.

In fact, additional flawed moral and legal reasoning soon followed in KCV Planned Parenthood

and Dovey Bolton built on Roe v. Wade's flawed moral and legal reasoning.

Rendering almost any restriction on abortion, however mild it was, supposedly unconstitutional.

Well today, thanks to the goodness of God, the long labors of pro-lifers over the years

and the keen legal efforts of the present Supreme Court, Roe is no more.

That's reason to celebrate.

However, in the month since, the Dobs decision has become painfully clear just how much work

remains for those who are committed to see the end of abortion.

Specifically, Dobs return the legal decision making about abortion to states.

The legal decision making that has happened since is not so encouraging.

In Kansas, a statewide pro-life ballot initiative went down in flames.

Few months later, Michigan passed the most radical pro-abortion law that America has seen

yet by a majority that was unexpected by the pro-life pundits there.

And Montana, of all places, a bill that would have merely required helping babies want

alive after a botched abortion procedure, failed.
