Mexican Supreme Court’s Abortion Ruling: Judicial Tyranny Against the Reign of Christ the King
EWTN News portal reports that Mexico’s Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) is poised to debate a draft ruling that pro-life organizations warn would effectively legalize abortion across the entire nation, eliminating all legal protections for the unborn child. The draft, authored by Justice Irving Espinosa Betanzo, argues that “removing abortion from penal codes is fundamental to precluding criminal proceedings and eradicating both social criminalization and that which occurs within healthcare services.” This judicial overreach, driven by the feminist NGO GIRE (Group for Information on Elective Reproduction), an ally of Planned Parenthood, seeks to invalidate state laws protecting life from conception and reduce gestational limits, pushing toward what the court calls “total decriminalization” and “reproductive justice.” Pro-life leaders like Uriel Esqueda of the Actívate platform and Rodrigo Iván Cortes of the National Front for the Family have condemned this as a “supreme injustice” that would leave the unborn “without any form of protection” and open the door to abortion up to nine months. This is not merely a legal dispute but a direct assault on the natural law and the divine commandment “Thou shalt not kill,” revealing the utter bankruptcy of a system that has severed itself from the authority of Christ the King.
