| Summary: | Abstract. Telling the tale about South Dakota's recent legislative ban on nearly all abortions gets messy, complicated, and dirty. There are no innocent subjects and no simple plot lines. The story reveals other stories underneath and over the top of the others.

Religion and medical science are caught in the politics and cultural wars about abortion. |
