NJ Supremes Overturn Abortion Ruling

The New Jersey Supreme Court has unanimously ruled that doctors are not required to tell women considering abortion that the embryo is an "existing human being".

"On the profound issue of when life begins, this court cannot drive public policy in one particular direction by the engine of the common law when the opposing sides, which represent so many of our citizens, are arrayed along a deep societal and philosophical divide," New Jersey Justice Barry T. Albin wrote for the court.
