Q: What are the devastating results of Roe v. Wade?

A: Tuesday, January 22, will mark 40 years since the Supreme Court of the United States handed down its 7-2 decision in the Roe v. Wade case, in which state laws prohibiting abortions were declared unconstitutional based on an alleged right to privacy in the due process clause of the 14th Amendment. Since that fateful day, over 54 million babies in the U.S. have been legally murdered through surgical abortions—and many more through other means such as abortifacient drugs.
Various liberal groups hail Roe v. Wade as a monumental victory. On the other hand, many Christians and political conservatives view the decision as inherently immoral and an atrocious abuse of the 14th Amendment.
Anniversaries, whether of good or bad occasions, give us a reason to reflect on the results or consequences of those events.
Read the devastating results of the Roe v. Wade court case—and look at some of the changes over the past 40 years related to the abortion issue.
