(By Bobby Schindler / LIfenews.com) – The global mushrooming of the culture of death we are witnessing did not happen overnight. Nations did not suddenly decide that human life was disposable. Rather, over decades, we have become deadened to the value and dignity of human life, one excuse at a time.
A major turning point for the United States began in 1973, the year of Roe v. Wade, a landmark Supreme Court decision that established a constitutional right for a woman to end the life of her unborn child.
For over half a century, our country permitted the intentional destruction of human life under the pretense of law. In the U.S. alone, more than 65 million unborn children have been killed in their mothers’ wombs since Roe, and nearly 73 million abortions occur worldwide every year. CONTINUE
