Good News for the Unborn in Mississippi

Barring court action, Mississippi will soon have a law that could leave the entire state without an abortion clinic. This is a good thing, especially if you’re an unborn baby.
Gov. Phil Bryant April 16 signed a bill into law that requires physicians at all abortion clinics in the state to be board certified obstetricians/gynecologists, with admitting privileges at a local hospital.

The only clinic currently performing abortions in Mississippi has three physicians on staff, two of which don’t meet the new requirements. Politico reports that the leader of Jackson Women’s Health Organization had predicted that the clinic could close if the bill was signed into law.

Pro-abortion forces were quick to condemn the new law, of course. But it’s difficult for them to credibly do so while maintaining that they exist for the sake of “women’s health.” How can having standards for the qualifications of doctors pose a danger to women’s health? There may be more than a little pro-life ideology at work in the Mississippi state government, but we greatly prefer that to a callous disregard for unborn children and the women who have come to believe that their children are disposable.

Keep praying saints...Things are changing
