Synopsis:



With the fast-approaching ruling by the SCOTUS -- Supreme Court of the United States -- it appears that the fate of legalized abortion on the federal level will soon be known. For those of my readers who may think that the death knell for abortion in the United States of America may soon sound, I have some disturbing news for you. Following is a quote taken from a May 5, 2022 "The Washington Times" news article called “Abortion pills become next battleground as Roe v. Wade hangs in the balance". The article in question concerns what is believed by some to be the upcoming post-Roe vs Wade landscape, and it is not what many of you probably think. I am not able to post the entire article here because it is a subscriber-only news article -- of which I am one -- but this short quote will explain to you the gist of the matter being discussed in the article:

----- Begin Quote -----

"The most significant change in the abortion landscape may not be the looming Supreme Court opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, but a pill that arrives by mail and can be taken at home."

----- End Quote -----

As the article goes on to explain, rather than rely on the standard surgical abortion, many women have begun turning to what is referred to as chemical abortion. The two drugs that are used in this devilish, murderous process -- mifepristone and misoprostol -- have been around for decades. In fact, I have written about them and chemical abortion before. Please refer to part six of my controversial 1997 series entitled "Abortion: The Slaughter of the Innocent" for the gruesome details, if you feel so inclined.

Personally, I find it rather alarming that these two drugs are being made available via telemedicine -- meaning without even the need for a physical visit to a doctor's office -- and being delivered by way of the US postal service. It is basically performing abortions under the cover of darkness where there will be no public scrutiny or outcry. So do you realize what a wicked door is being opened by even allowing this? Can you see the great potential for abuse by desperate young girls and other women?

This "invisible" procedure is nothing new. It has already been happening. According to a report issued by the ungodly, pro-abortion Guttmacher Institute, in 2020, 54% of abortions in the United States were accomplished through using this two-drug cocktail. Furthermore, it is a given that if Roe vs Wade is overturned in the very near future, while more public surgical abortions will undoubtedly decline due to red states shutting down their abortion clinics, more secretive chemical abortions will most certainly continue to increase in number. After all, the money-hungry abortion industry will make sure of it. They are already setting up the framework to make it happen. Who knows. The annual abortion rate in the USA could possibly climb into the millions once this floodgate is open.

What this means, my friends, is that despite the big hoopla and victory dance which has already begun amongst pro-lifers regarding the likely probability that Roe vs Wade may soon be overturned, abortion on demand is simply NOT going away entirely. It is simply changing gears so-to-speak. In other words, if Roe vs Wade is overturned, all it will do is push abortion underground, just as a similar thing occurred with alcohol during the Prohibition when they had speakeasies.

While the defeat of Roe vs Wade will save many thousands of unborn innocent lives -- which is obviously a very good thing to be thankful for -- what it will ALSO do in large part is remove the controversy, conversation and debate regarding having an abortion, from the American public's conscience. Basically, the tactic being used amounts to out of sight and out of mind. With the increasing availability of telemedicine and the ability to acquire mifepristone and misoprostol via the post service, a woman who is seeking an abortion will no longer have to endure the humiliating experience of being stigmatized, harassed and publicly condemned, due to the current requirement of having to physically go to an abortion clinic in order to murder her unborn child. That will all be gone and a thing of the past.

Do you understand what is really going on here? While on the surface it appears that the defeat of Roe vs Wade will deal a death blow to abortion, and make it much more difficult for many women to obtain an abortion, in reality, it will ALSO make it easier to kill that unborn child, because it will be done away from the public eye, under the cover of darkness, via a telemedicine session, and by using the US postal service. If anything, I would think that this kind of guaranteed secrecy and anonymity would encourage more women to obtain an abortion, who otherwise would not even consider such a wicked procedure.

As I already said, there will be no more being publicly stigmatized and condemned for those women who seek an abortion. There will no longer be loud, angry protests and shouting matches occurring outside of abortion clinics. Thus, the public controversy will slowly disappear, but abortion on demand really won't. It will still be here. It will just move into a new, low-key phase. The unborn will continue to be sacrificed on the altar of selfishness and personal convenience, but behind closed doors and in secret. The abortion industry surely saw this day coming, and so they prepared for it.

Sadly, that is the reality of the situation as I personally see it. Overruling Roe vs. Wade will be a good thing in that it will save many lives. However, at the same time, it is a double-edged sword, because it will also serve to sweep the truth under a carpet where people will eventually forget about it, because it is no longer in front of their faces. It will have become a hidden sin, committed by America's young girls and women who lack the love for the child which the Lord has chosen to give them.

Before concluding this short article, allow me to address those young girls and women who may be considering getting an abortion. First, you need to understand that God views the taking of another human life as a very serious matter. How much more so when that life is an unborn innocent child? If you doubt that this is so, please consider the following verses which are found in the Old Testament, taking note of the words which I have placed in uppercase letters:

"Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils, And SHED INNOCENT BLOOD, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood."


"These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and HANDS THAT SHED INNOCENT BLOOD."


". . . And the fifth was named Kasdeja: this is he who showed the children of men all the wicked smitings of spirits and demons, and the smitings of the embryo in the womb, that it may pass away . . ."


The fact of the matter is that God views all human life as being very precious. Not only that, but He recognizes us as human beings even before we are born, and even as He creates us in our mother's womb. These truths become apparent in the following set of verses:

"Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and THE FRUIT OF THE WOMB IS HIS REWARD."


"Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and HE THAT FORMED THEE FROM THE WOMB, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;"


"BEFORE I FORMED THEE IN THE BELLY I KNEW THEE; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."


"For thou hast possessed my reins: thou hast covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them."


"FOR WHOM HE DID FOREKNOW, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren."


"According as he hath chosen us in him BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love . . . Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will . . . In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:"


UPDATE MAY 6, 2026:

As everyone will know by now, as had been anticipated, four years ago on June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court of the United States officially overturned Roe v. Wade, as well as Planned Parenthood v. Casey, in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision. The 6–3 ruling -- 5–4 on the vote to overturn -- determined that the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion, returning authority to regulate and/or prohibit the procedure to individual state legislatures.

As I note in the body of this article, while this was a good thing, trouble was ALREADY brewing as ungodly abortionists sought for a way around the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and as I already explained four years ago, they found it in the undercover practice of using the postal service, and online telemedicine sessions. The way that this occurred is that the FDA -- the U.S. Food and Drug Administration -- suspended the in-person prescription and dispensing requirement for the two abortion drugs -- mifepristone and misoprostol -- during the COVID-19 pandemic. Then, to make matters worse, this change was made permanent in 2023 during the Biden administration.

So, while the abortion rate in the United States did indeed begin to drop following the Dobbs decision -- certain states even banned abortion altogether -- it has been a short-lived victory, sad to say. According to a May 4, 2026 article in The Washington Times headlined "Alito Keeps Abortion Pill Legal by Mail, for Now", due to the FDA stupidly opening the floodgate for mifepristone and misoprostol to be dispensed by way of telemedicine, tragically, as of early 2025, 27% of all U.S. abortions were being performed by telemedicine. This, of course, resulted in a rise in overall abortions. Furthermore, this ungodly abortion pill cocktail now accounts for roughly two-thirds of all pregnancy terminations according to the Washington Times article.

So exactly how bad has the American abortion situation become? Well, the nationwide total of abortions went from 1,058,650 in 2023 to 1,123,920 in 2024, and then continued to rise to an even large total of 1,126,470 abortions in 2025, according to the Guttmacher Institute. The tragedy is that as I explain in my 1997 eight-part series entitled "Abortion: The Slaughter of the Innocent", this is almost what the average total number of abortions was for a thirty-six-year period since abortion was first legalized by Roe v. Wade in 1973, up to 2009 when I last updated the aforementioned series. In short, thanks to the FDA decision, the United States has lost all the progress that it was making in slowing down abortions, and we are now back to pretty much the same levels as before, to our own shame.

However, there is a potential bright spot in this horrible news. On May 1, 2026, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals -- which is viewed by certain observers as being the most conservative appeals court in the USA -- stated that the FDA admitted that it rushed the approval of remote dispensation of mifepristone. Because of that admission, the FDA is now engaged in a new review concerning its decision to approve telemedicine as a way to dispense mifepristone. Being as it is not certain when the FDA will complete its review, the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the FDA approval must be stayed because it tramples on Louisiana’s near-total abortion ban. The state of Louisiana became involved when it sued to shut down the mail distribution of the two drugs, mifepristone and misoprostol.

In his ruling, the judge overseeing the case -- Stuart Kyle Duncan -- stated that "The public interest is not served by perpetuating a medical practice whose safety the agency admits was inadequately studied." But sadly, this mess does NOT end with Judge Duncan's ruling. Only three days later on May 4, 2026, Supreme Court Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. issued a one-week stay on Duncan's ruling, thus allowing the pills to continue being dispensed via telemedicine and the U.S. Postal Service. Justice Alito ordered the stay so that the Supreme Court can hear additional briefings, and consider the case more fully. So, the fight is clearly not over yet, and that is the current situation as I update this article on May 6, 2026.
