It isn’t just Abortion. Leftists always demand CENTRAL CONTROL! A Republic of autonomous states just won’t do! Tyranny has trouble spreading, when government operates closer to the people!

Communists MUST HAVE Centralized Control!

Speaking as a former neonatal intensive care nurse and maternal-infant nurse, I must point out when you say, “A better way to look at it is there are no discernable moments between conception and birth when a preborn baby is no longer part of the mother's body,” the baby is NEVER part of the mother’s body.

It would be more accurate to say that the pre-born human (no matter what stage of intrauterine development), resides within the mother’s body. In other words, the body inside mom’s body is not mom’s body.

Mom’s rights end at the tip of baby’s nose.

"When does her right over her body end and the baby's right to life begin?"

My answer is the same as what I say about all of our rights...

"Your rights end where my rights begin"

The same goes for mother and baby. The mother's rights over her body end where the baby (and the baby's rights) begins.

At least the Supreme Court has answered the Constitutional question properly. Sadly, there will always be places to go to legally murder the preborn.

One thing for certain -- if women would follow the lead of the lady who was sterilized (ligation of fallopian tubes) there would be no need for abortion. Good for her. If you don't want children, make sure you don't get pregnant. How hard is that? (Evidently it is unattainable for most if you listen to the shrieks about women's healthcare.) Birth control is widely available. There are so many options - abortion isn't one of them - by literal definition alone. Insisting on the right to kill preborn humans is nothing more than evil.

We will fight this fight as long as evil exists - it is a spiritual battle. "But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul; All those who hate me love death." Proverbs 8:36

"End the two-party system – we must launch an independent working-class party that will defend the interests of working-class women, queer people, and people of color!"...I have seen this on a site of socialist alternative. Dear people, they do not know what they are talking about and use no meaning words just to manipulate brainwashed people. I lived in a socialist communist country, the abortions were prohibited, not only in my country, but in all communist countries. If they would fight for a right, was something, but they ask for what they do not know what is it. Not that the new " socialism" would prohibit abortions in these days when depopulation is a goal, but it will do unimaginable bad things.

Something else important, since when a president has the right to speak over a decision of a court when he doesn't like it and call the people in the street? Otherwise, when it was about the vaxxine "my body my choice", it happened totaly different.

I found Jeff Childers' analysis of why covid helped overturn Roe very interesting this morning:

I appreciate your list JD, especially the focus on changing hearts and minds. As Christians, we have to make abortion unthinkable before it can become unavailable. We have done a very poor job. Too many who profess Christ refuse to even engage about it - like my BiL (a pastor 😱), much less become life apologists. Two resources I've found that have helped me become a better apologist for life are at Stand to Reason str.org and Scott Klusendorf's prolifetraining.com

As a citizen of SC L, I wish all it would take would be a call to Senators Scott and Graham and that would be enough to stop the stacking of the court but sadly it will not. Graham can’t be trusted in any case.

Preserving the Supreme Court is the single most important effort for WE THE PEOPLE to be fully engaged in and committed to. We loose the Court, we loose it all. That simple. This is not a difficult concept to understand.

The solution will not and cannot come from the US Congress. They are incapable. It must come from a unified force projected from Statehouses across this nation. God, our Father foresaw this day and provided a means of preserving the Supreme Court and our freedoms. He provided the only peaceful means by which Liberty will prevail through the process of an Article V Convention for the express purpose of fixing the number of Supreme Court Justices at 9.

Whatever it takes to get it done, it must be done. Any questions, feel free to contact me.
