Wednesday: Minute Message to Pray About!

Law students and attorneys are particularly concerned with determining human rights, and defending them. This is as it should be. We are well advised to ponder the words of Dr. Joseph Stanton, patriarch of the pro-life movement in Massachusetts, who stated: “Protection of innocent human life in its most fragile and awesome beginning…and at its so often dependent close, is at once the highest privilege and most profound obligation of a caring and humane society.” By embracing this sage advice, the legal community can properly compass attention to a broader understanding of human rights.
