Three recent articles about abortion caught my attention in the past 24 hours.

One, a piece in the NYTimes about how New York City is the abortion capital of our nation: “Abortion: Easy Access, Complex Everything Else.” 
Two, a report from the Associated Press about an egregious abuse of power in the case of an abortion doctor in Pennsylvania who has recently been charged with 8 counts of murder. According to the article, “Women: Pa. abortions left us sterile, near death,” Dr. Gosnell killed hundreds of babies who were born/aborted in the third trimester. Moreover, “Gosnell perforated the uteruses, bowels and cervixes of countless patients, the grand jury report charged. He left fetal parts inside, ignored postoperative pain and bleeding and passed venereal diseases from one patient to the next through bloody and dirty instruments, the report said.”

Finally, in “The Lazy Slander of Pro-Lifers,” a report from Christianity Today about the ways in which Christians–both Catholic and Protestant–support a culture of life from the womb through childhood.
