About this episode

The episode discusses the temporary restoration of access to the abortion pill mifepristone by Justice Samuel Alito amidst ongoing legal battles.

Last Friday, a federal appeals court blocked the mailing of mifepristone prescriptions, restricting access to one of the most common means of abortion in the US. On Monday, Justice Samuel Alito temporarily restored broad access to the drug, suspending the lower court’s ruling for one week so the full Supreme Court can consider emergency appeals and decide how to proceed. In our highly secularized, post-Christian culture, it seems like it’s one step forward, two steps back. But there’s an antidote to the discouragement many of us feel.
