Overturning Roe v. Wade

The United States Supreme Court will be decide tomorrow whether or not to accept the case of Norma McCorvey (the Jane Roe in “Roe vs. Wade”) requesting that the they would overturn Roe V. Wade, some of the reasons for her requesting that this ruling be overturned can be found in the “Petition for writ of Certiorari“:

“Since the original judgment in Roe v. Wade , factual conditions surrounding abortion have changed significantly demonstrating that abortion hurts women. Evidence of the changed factual conditions includes: the testimony of women harmed by abortion; medical studies documenting abortion injuries; an explosion of knowledge since 1973 concerning the effects of abortion on women; and, the fact that abortion clinics to do not provide the normal doctor-patient relationship anticipated by Roe. There have also been significant changes in legal conditions, including forty-six states that have enacted laws transferring the burden of unwanted child care to society…”

LifeNews.com, the website where I found out about this, has a very interesting article about this. According to them:

“The Justice Foundation [a pro-life law firm that has been handling the case of McCorvey] indicated that the members of the court will discuss hearing the case on Friday and will release their decision on Monday.”

I wonder what the chances are that these judges will decide to hear McCorvey’s case. It’s an extremely important case, if they decide to hear it, and if they once again decide in favour of “Roe”…
