    It was with disbelief that I saw the news of the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision—with Chief Justice John Roberts casting the deciding vote—to strike down the Louisiana abortion law. As a believer and as a person of common sense, the simple provision that was in dispute—that doctors in abortion clinics need to have admitting privileges
