Wishes for Warren

Dr. Warren Hern Colorado’s most famous late-term abortionist retired recently leaving a tumultous carrer behind him. Now 86, he has served over many decades and endured much in his professional life. A man of dedication, skill, and fortitude. A medical professional who seved others and, no doubt, was admired and praised by many. Someone reportedly kind and inspiring. A person of professional accomplishment and accolade!

But was Dr. Hern’s chosen profession one of honor, integrity, and betterment? No, is the short answer. For every person Dr. Hern thought he helped, he harmed another. For every woman he thought he rescued, he buried another. For every problem he thought he solved, he created many more. Dr. Hern didn’t save life, he took it. Dr. Hern did fall short, he did work in vain, and he will be ashamed! But I hope Dr. Hern isn’t beyond rescue. I hope he’s not beyond change. I hope he’s not beyond saving. And I hope he has enough time left to get it right.
