The point of the article isn't Norma McCorvey's becoming a Christian. That's tertiary. (Catholics are Christians too, by the way). The woman was used and exploited attorneys mandated to locate a poor traumatized and confused pregnant girl with no family to use for the abortion agenda.
If they'd not found Norma they'd have used the next case they found on the Dallas court docket files and the Supreme Court Case would still have been Roe v Wade. Think about this.

"Poor, pregnant, and desperate, Norma McCorvey fell into the hands of two young and ambitious lawyers. They were looking for a plaintiff with whom they could challenge the Texas state law prohibiting abortion, and Norma signed on. Little did she know that her signature would one day make her an international figure.

Though she was touted as a symbol of everything women could gain by being free to choose an abortion, the real Jane Roe was an embarrassment to the image that the Ivy League feminists tried so hard to project. Norma was uneducated, unskilled, a drug user, and an alcoholic. She became a helpless pawn in a powerful game."

I would like to add something I should have included earlier: Norma didn't have an abortion and has never had an abortion. She wrote, "Quite understandably, I had difficulty relating to children. I had given birth to three, all of whom had been placed for adoption (one of them against my will). And because I worked in an abortion clinic, I was fearful of bonding with anyone so young. It was part of my denial. When you know what is happening to the children behind closed doors, it's difficult to become attached to them outside."

You can imagine she gets tons of hate mail from feminists every week. She's got guts for asserting who she is publicly and not going back into hiding.

If anyone is confused over the mental and emotional progression of Norma McCorvey it is this "Hugh" person [below], who sounds from the beginning as a Catholic hater.

Interesting. Especially when one understands that one of the two lawful reasons for abortion in Texas at the time of Roe v. Wade was incest.

How many English speaking people (which, more often than not, means Protestant or protester against The Church) are aware that Henry VIII, who couldn't be denied a much younger second wife, even if it meant destroying the religion of all Europe and beyond - which destruction he effectively put into motion as the first "pope" of his breakaway Church of England - was also the father of that second wife, Anne Boleyn?

The product of this unlawful if not unnatural joining, of course, was one of the world's most vicious, criminal, heartless harlots ever, the "virgin" "good Queen Bess" - Elizabeth, responsible for untold numbers of unjust murders, just as was her also lustful father/grandfather.

Anyone care to go deeper into real historical confusion? An honest study of the origins of Protestantism would satisfy any such appetite.

McCorvey is now a Catholic? Could this woman be any more confused?
She has a famous court case in her fake name, and now she all of a sudden she runs a "pro life" ministry and wants to ban abortions?

I am sick and tired of these "has-beens" and their ilk coming out and recognizing their mistakes decades later for some obvious
publicity reasons. It's about the culture of victimhood mentality and their ability to sell their books and other crap once a spin
doctor gets hold of their story and convinces them of selling it.

Thankfully they are all like a "fart in the wind"... the smell lasts only briefly before it is blown away by the next new topic on
Oprah.

Can somebody please shut off the lights once the last thinking human leaves the building...
