The case of Roe versus Wade in 1973 is now believed to have been the official decline of the American system of morals.

Wise beyond her years.


"America needs no words from me to see how your decision in Roe v. Wade has deformed a great nation. The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father's role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts -- a child -- as a competitor, an intrusion, and an inconvenience. It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the independent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters. And, in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners. Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity. The right to life does not depend, and must not be declared to be contingent, on the pleasure of anyone else, not even a parent or a sovereign."

Mother Teresa (Wall Street Journal, 2/25/94)

The battle continues:

It's Time To Reverse Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton

At ReverseRoe.com, you can take part in the most powerful project to confront abortion there's ever been:

The two women who were the original plaintiffs in the 1973 Supreme Court cases that made abortion legal in the U.S. throughout all nine months of pregnancy, Norma McCorvey (former "Roe" of Roe v. Wade) and Sandra Cano (former "Doe" of Doe v. Bolton, the companion case to Roe)... ... are preparing to bring suit to REVERSE Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton!
