From the weekly conversation between New York Times columnists Gail Collins and Bret Stephens headlined “Sometimes, History Goes Backward”:
Bret Stephens: Your thoughts on what appears to be the imminent demise of Roe v. Wade?
Gail Collins: I have multitudinous thoughts, some of them philosophical and derived from my Catholic upbringing. Although I certainly don’t agree with it, I understand the philosophical conviction that life begins at conception.
Bret: As a Jew, I believe that life begins when the kids move out of the house.
