Roe is overturned, and on the feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
What an incredible victory in what has felt like a long defeat over many decades.
So much prayer and work went into this victory. I think of every lady volunteering at every pregnancy care center, every pro-life non-profit operating in every state, the Masses offered, the pro-life marches and rallies, the novenas prayed, the voting--more on that later--for leaders whom we hoped would ultimately deliver justice.
To be clear: Roe was an absolutely terrible decision, terribly argued, and yet for 49 years it reigned.
Almost half a century and tens of millions of lives killed, based on a garbage decision.
What's so refreshing about this Dobbs decision is, we get to read actual wisdom and jurisprudence from someone like Justice Clarence Thomas, a man who has right principles and a solid understanding of truth.
This is in contrast to not only Roe, but also to so many majority leftist decisions by the Supreme Court over the past 50 years that have been utter drivel.
The adults really are in charge again!
And note that that turncoat Chief Justice Roberts did not vote to overturn Roe. What an enormous disappointment he has been.
Many states now have laws going into place automatically that will greatly restrict abortions. Thanks be to God.
One question we have to ask ourselves, who have voted for conservatives over the past decades: was overturning Roe at long last worth the many awful Republican representatives and other leaders that we have had, and still have?
I don't know the answer to that question. While this victory is enormous, so many more terrible laws and decisions remain in place, often put there or abetted by Republican legislators, judges, and presidents.
But that's a question for another day. For now, we will rejoice, on this Feast of the Sacred Heart!
