Don't forget who has a long fuse, but does have a fuse: God. The abortion rights movement used to be led by women such as Kate Michelman, whose personal abortion story was that she and her three small children were abandoned by her husband when she was pregnant and that she had an abortion because she was broke and desperate. These circumstances don't make abortion objectively morally right — and who knows whether the details of the story are accurate — but at least she was a woman you felt sorry for, even if you believe abortion is gravely wrong. Well, it's 2016, and the head of Planned Parenthood is Cecile Richards. Her abortion story is quite different. As she told Katie Couric, she was married, had three children she and her husband adored, but they just didn't want a fourth, so she had an abortion, “which just wasn't a big deal”. (Richards didn't mention finances, but she couldn't have been too strapped: her mother, Ann Richards either was, or was on her way to being, the Governor of Texas.)

My point is that, forty years after Roe v. Wade, abortion has gone from being illegal and rare, to (supposedly) “safe, legal, and rare”, to something “one in three American women has”, which is “no big deal”. Since the Bible tells us that “God is not mocked”, we must ask...how much longer will His hand be stayed?

It won't be stayed, not entirely. 50 million abortions. God has not simply failed to notice that.
