  • Avoiding Misstatements About Death
    CHRISTIAN RESEARCH INSTITUTE PO Box 8500, Charlotte, NC 28271 From the Editor: JAFE361 OBSERVING THE FORTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF ROE V.WADE by Elliot Miller This article first appeared in the From the Editor column of the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL, volume 36, number 01 (2013). For further information or to subscribe to the CHRISTIAN RESEARCH JOURNAL go to: http://www.equip.org/christian-research-journal/ This past January 22 marked the fortieth anniversary of the Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade, which upheld a lower court’s decision to strike down a Texas law that criminalized most instances of abortion. Texas had been one of forty-six states that prohibited abortion on demand, and it was the constitutionality of all such laws that Texas lawyer Sarah Weddington successfully challenged when she took on the case of Norma McCorvey (“Jane Roe”), a young Texas woman who was denied an abortion. To better commemorate the fortieth anniversary of Roe v. Wade, I visited the website Remembering Roe, where national TV news clips from the day Roe was announced can be viewed.1 I was struck by the prophetic profundity with which some people spoke of the event. For example, Roman Catholic spokesman Msgr. James McHue, interviewed on CBS News, stated, “In this instance the Supreme Court has withdrawn protection for the human rights of unborn children and it is teaching people that abortion is a rather innocuous procedure provided that there are proper legal safeguards. I think that the judgment of the Court will do a great deal to tear down the respect previously accorded human life in our culture.” It’s one thing to assess Roe properly forty years after the fact and another to do so articulately the very day the decision was announced.

  • Roe V Wade Turns 41
    Roe v Wade Turns 41 Today marks the 41st anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision. On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court issued a decision upholding a person’s right to privacy and abortion. In a 7-2 decision, the Court decided that under the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, a person had the right to access an abortion before a fetus was deemed viable or had the ability to live outside the womb, usually 24-28 weeks gestation. Sarah Weddington The case originated in Texas when the plaintiff, Norma McCorvey aka ‘Jane Roe’, discovered she was pregnant with her third child. While she wanted to seek a safe and legal abortion | 1 Roe v Wade Turns 41 for her unplanned pregnancy, she was unable to get one without claiming that the pregnancy was a result of rape because the laws in Texas only allowed access to an abortion in the cases of rape or incest. After hearing McCorvey’s situation, two young lawyers, Sarah Weddington and Linda Coffee decided to file suit on her behalf against the Dallas County District Attorney Henry Wade. Originally, the district court ruled in McCorvey’s favor, but did not issue an injunction against the laws barring her from accessing an abortion. McCorvey subsequently continued the pregnancy and never had an abortion. The case was then appealed to the Supreme Court and the decision asserted that according to the 14th Amendment, people seeking abortions had the right to privacy because of the right to personal liberty, therefore are protected by the Constitution.
