1.\u00a0 Several arrests were made for disorderly conduct during the hearings over Judge Sonia Sotomayor and her nomination to the Supreme Court.\u00a0 This in itself is not surprising, but one of the names among those arrested may surprise you: Norma McCorvey<\/a> of Texas, better known as the \u201cJane Roe\u201d of the landmark abortion ruling Roe v. Wade<\/em>.<\/p>\n If you are familiar with the pro-life movement, however, you will not be surprised.\u00a0 McCorvey remained a supporter of our current abortion laws into the 1990s, when, in 1995, working at a women\u2019s health organization, she befriended workers from Operation Rescue and was converted.\u00a0 In this interview<\/a> with a Catholic priest she explains the evolution of her position (\u201cJane Roe has been laid to rest\u2026\u201d).\u00a0 She has also stated that her earlier testimony, claiming that the baby (who was never aborted) was conceived in a rape, was actually conceived with her boyfriend (apparently<\/a> there was a fair amount of fraud involved in the Roe case, as well as the case, Doe v. Bolton).\u00a0 In 1998 McCorvey joined<\/a> the Roman Catholic Church<\/a> and began her own prolife ministry called Roe No More<\/a>.\u00a0 She was also arrested in a protest on the campus of Notre Dame during Barack Obama\u2019s visit for a commencement speech.\u00a0 Read her testimony here<\/a>.\u00a0 She has written several books<\/a>, including \u201cWon by Love\u201d and \u201cI Was Wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n Patheos<\/a> hosted a fascinating discussion of abortion<\/a> recently.\u00a0 Not all evangelicals are opposed to our current abortion laws, and Norma McCorvey has no special authority on this issue.\u00a0 Yet if you\u2019re interested, here is a tasteful commercial from her:<\/p>\n
