Fifty years of faithful, persistent, and determined opposition bore fruit as the Roberts court overturned this heinous ruling. Few observers in 1973 could imagine a sustained pro-life movement, but less a victory at the highest Court. But as much as we celebrate what happened three years ago\u2013and we should\u2013we must also understand that\u00a0<em>Dobbs<\/em>\u00a0was not the end of the fight, but the beginning of a new chapter. We must not tire in our quest to champion the most vulnerable members of our society, the precious souls who cannot vote, cannot march, cannot by themselves escape the cruel scalpel or murderous chemical that attempts to snuff out their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Those of us who have long been in this movement must not tire, communicating with conviction and compassion, that inside the womb is not a mere cluster of cells, or a problem to be solved, but indeed a person, made in the image of God. What is needed is new education for a new generation, the catechizing of young hearts and minds with this simple message. Alongside the tireless fight for legislative and legal protection must be the campaign for the moral and spiritual framework to help our neighbors see humanity where those who seek to end life only see inconvenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">And we should remember that ours is a worthy fight, a noble fight, a movement for the ages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daniel Darling speaks clearly, consistently, ecumenically with conviction.
