Turning the Tide in the Abortion Struggle

May 12, 2011 by Timothy Dalrymple

Continued from Page 2

The young pro-lifers today believe they can change the culture, to change the law, to change the world. When Roe was passed in 1973, it did not follow a clear constitutional imperative so much as it expressed the moral and spiritual culture emerging from the 1960s. Now a new culture is emerging as more pro-life generations rise up to claim a greater share of influence. As Alveda King, whose uncle Martin knew a bit about popular movements, observes in the second video, "When you see the young people come on board, then you know that victory is on the way."

In the next part of this series, I will discuss the way forward. But there is a way forward. The culture of life in America is in renaissance, and the children of that renaissance are turning the tide.
