of course, justice o'connor, the first moment on the court died last december. she had arranged to have her papers available at the library of congress after her death not all justices do that, but those who do these documents personal correspondence, handwritten notes, offer a window into how this very secretive touche an operates. there was a particularly important abortion case in 1989 when justice o'connor pivoted from what had been a consistent vote against roe what we see now in these materials is the pressure she faced to cas the deciding vote to overturn that landmark case. the pressure came as three of the reagan appointees were all in place in it looked like there was a chance roe would be overturned for the first time since 1973 when that case made abortion legal nationwide. but justice o'connor flinched part of her change trajectory appears to be from the pressure that then chief justice william rehnquist and justice antonin scalia strong opponents of roe how they implored her to get on board after arguments were heard on the restrictive missouri abo

if i add records to the wisdom of flannery o'connor. she bemoaned the fact that today the world is going through something like a dark night of the soul. the world in its increasingly secular condition is losing its capacity to see the presence of god and at the stirrings of grace. as well as conversion experiences. >> hold that thought and we will take a brief break. we will be back shortly to talk about faith, fiction and film. >>> we are talking with dr. margaret turek and we are talking about evangelizing. that is not only preaching the christian message but seeing the christian truth and finding unexpected ways in which to see it. you mentioned flannery o'connor and her encapsulation as a writer was -- >> she said at one point that the primary gift that she needed as a catholic writer was the gift of prophetic vision. the vision is the capacity to see and see prophetically. by which she meant not the capacity to read the future but the capacity to see what is hidden. and again, for her it is primarily the hidden presence of god. ou

lynn o'connor says she was hiking with her dogs yesterday morning on her family's ranch. she says her dogs took off and started chasing what she believed to be a black bear cub in a split second. o'connor says she chose fight over flight. >> she popped out onto the trail as she was in a run, and she just kept running at me. she started getting real big at me. she pushed her shoulders forward and her head down. she was that close and i just reached down and i punched her. i got little scars on my hands and i think i got three good whacks in before she was on top of me. >> o'connor says she dropped into a ball on the trail to protect herself, but left her head exposed. the bear clawed at her, leaving her in need of 18 staples in her head. that's when her dogs came to her rescue, scaring the bear away. the department of fish and wildlife confirmed they killed a bear they thought was responsible. they later said it was actually a different female black bear that was never found. o'connor was treated by an extended family member and local first responders before being airlifte
