Here is a link to a great article posted on the Desiring God blog responding to an article in the New York Times. The NYT article criticized some conservative british politicians who want to reduce the time a woman can have an abortion from 24 weeks too 12 weeks. The criticism arises because within the first 12 weeks certain birth defections, such as Down Syndrome, cannot be detected within that time frame. John Knight provides a firm but gracious response to the NYT article.
