Pro-Life Movement Must Change Public Opinion to Overcome Roe, Abortion: Thomas Paine said, “[A] long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.”
Paine was talking about the abuses that the American colonists suffered under the crown of England, and bemoaning the fact many colonists had become so accustomed to these abuses that over time they accepted their plight instead of rising up and overthrowing tyranny.
Perhaps Paine was prophetically observing twenty-first century America and the acquiescence of the public-at-large to the judicial tyranny that has imposed upon America abortion on demand.
