TX Abortion Law Should Force America to Change Its Ways

Abortion is a failure for every woman and her unborn child -- a failure of love, justice and mercy. Texas' new abortion law is far from perfect, but I hope it can move us closer to these ideals. The highest purpose of human law is the protection of human life, from its beginning to its natural end. As a pro-life Christian, I believe that each of our individual origins are in the moment of conception. That's when my life and your life began. Not in some abstract, ethereal way, but for real -- all the very particular DNA, chromosomes, eye color, hair texture and toes of you.
