DAILY REFLECTIONS: 40 Years of Roe v. Wade - 40 Days of Reflection and Prayer Did the court find that life doesn't begin until birth?
No. It argued that uses of the word "person" in the Constitution do not seem to include the unborn. Then, citing wide disagreement as to when human life begins, the Court said it "need not resolve" this difficult question. Instead of considering the scientific evidence that life begins at conception, or even allowing legislatures to protect those who have never been proved to be anything but human beings, the Court decided to treat unborn children merely as "potential life" - and to prevent the people or their elected representatives from determining otherwise.

TWAS\'  11 DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS, AROUND 9:38 WHEN 20 BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN
>  STORMED  THROUGH HEAVEN\'S GATE. THEIR SMILES WERE CONTAGIOUS, THEIR
>  LAUGHTER FILLED  THE AIR. THEY COULD HARDLY BELIEVE ALL THE BEAUTY THEY
>  SAW THERE. THEY  WERE FILLED WITH SUCH JOY; THEY DIDN\'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.
>  THEY REMEMBERED  NOTHING OF WHAT HAD HAPPENED EARLIER THAT DAY. “WHERE
>  ARE WE?" ASKED A  LITTLE GIRL, AS QUIET AS A MOUSE. “THIS IS
>  HEAVEN" DECLARED A SMALL BOY.  "WE’RE SPENDING CHRISTMAS AT
>  GOD\'S HOUSE”. WHEN WHAT TO THEIR WONDERING  EYES DID APPEAR, BUT JESUS,
>  THEIR SAVIOR, THE CHILDREN GATHERED NEAR. HE  LOOKED AT THEM AND SMILED,
>  AND THEY SMILED JUST THE SAME. THEN HE OPENED  HIS ARMS AND HE CALLED THEM
>  BY NAME. AND IN THAT MOMENT WAS JOY, THAT ONLY  HEAVEN CAN BRING THOSE
>  CHILDREN ALL FLEW INTO THE ARMS OF THEIR KING AND  AS THEY LINGERED IN THE
>  WARMTH OF HIS EMBRACE, ONE SMALL GIRL TURNED AND  LOOKED AT JESUS\' FACE.
>  AND AS IF HE COULD READ ALL THE QUESTIONS SHE HAD  HE GENTLY WHISPERED TO
>  HER, "I\'LL TAKE CARE OF MOM AND DAD. “THEN HE  LOOKED DOWN ON
>  EARTH, THE WORLD FAR BELOW HE SAW ALL OF THE HURT, THE  SORROW, AND WOE,
>  THEN HE CLOSED HIS EYES AND HE OUTSTRETCHED HIS HAND,  “LET MY POWER AND
>  PRESENCE RE-ENTER THIS LAND! “MAY THIS COUNTRY BE  DELIVERED FROM THE
>  HANDS OF FOOLS” “I’M TAKING BACK MY NATION. I\'M TAKING  BACK MY
>  SCHOOLS! “THEN HE AND THE CHILDREN STOOD UP WITHOUT A SOUND. “COME
>  NOW MY CHILDREN LET ME SHOW YOU AROUND. “EXCITEMENT FILLED THE SPACE,
>  SOME  SKIPPED AND SOME RAN. ALL DISPLAYING ENTHUSIASM THAT ONLY A SMALL
>  CHILD  CAN. AND I HEARD HIM PROCLAIM AS HE WALKED OUT OF SIGHT, “IN THE
>  MIDST OF  THIS DARKNESS,” I AM STILL THE LIGHT."
