A good day to be a fetus. Literally and symbolically. Not such a great day to be a Supreme Court Justice. They have put their lives on the line for this monumental decision let there be no doubt.
What blows my mind more than the ‘right’ to dismember one’s own unborn child was ever codified into law in the first place, and the fact it’s taken 5 decades to determine that ‘right’ should never have been protected by the constitution, is that so many are so willing and so desperate to defend this barbaric practice.
Dark hearts, deranged minds, seared consciences. One or any combination of those three sums up what it takes to support and celebrate the killing of an unborn baby.
Changing laws is one thing. Changing hearts and minds is something altogether more difficult when one considers how given over to the cult of self worship a society so far removed from Biblical truth and God’s prescribed order has become.
It’s time to celebrate this is massive the church at large should be boasting about this decision and what God has done to make this happen. A true miracle considering what is happening in the U S now.
While the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade was written by Justice Samuel Alito, a concurring opinion in favor of the conservative majority by Justice Clarence Thomas raises fears that rulings protecting contraception and same-sex marriage could be overruled as well in the near term.
“In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents,” Thomas wrote, pointing to Griswold v. Connecticut (contraception), Lawrence (same-sex marriage), and Obergefell (same-sex marriage). “Because any substantive due process decision is ‘demonstrably erroneous,’ we have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents.”
Great article James. This is what the left are doing consistently is taking what is good (a word or phrase or symbol) and applying it to something that is evil so that it cannot be argued with.
Thanks James for explaining - this is a monumental day and a right decision by the judges. Look forward to seeing greater awareness and respect for the sanctity of life in USA states.
One big win and push back against insidious woke (Marxist ideology)
Well summarised James. I’ll comment if necessary when I’ve read the decision. One thing though the Constitution was not written with abortion in mind even though it contained the right to carry arms so you could randomly self defend. However the US has allowed its judges to make law out of thin air which I guess is what they are saying about Roe. The thin air has now dissipated with Trump appointed conservative judges.
True. I think Trump deserves some credit for this. He will, likely, get none because of the divisiveness that surrounds him. Still, Christians owe him a debt on this one.
I beg to differ to some extent James. There is too much hysteria over this decision. It may be Christian or it may be anti woman personal choice but I do not comment on that. What it is is a legal decision of quite significant importance to constitutional lawyers I would have thought. What it does do is restate democracy according to the constitution. If enough pro abortion voters in each state vote for a pro abortion legislature then that’s what they get. So the contrary is true. Nothing emotive or virtue signalling or nonsense epithets here. The court has clearly been troubled that an issue that should be decided democratically should not be decided by the courts. Simply women get off your backsides and vote for abortion if that’s what you want in your state or stay at home and not get that at all. Seems simple to me James.
Agree James - for all his character flaws, crassness awful tweets, he was pro-life pro-family & Pro-faith when we consider the executive orders he signed

Next, euthanasia.

Now the culture at large world wide has to be changed to make abortion a horrifying, terrible and unthinkable.
A huge decision based on sound legal principle. Watch the insanity of the entitled unleash its rage…
Yep. The way the Left carry on about abortion, you'd think it was a matter of life and death! :)
The whole house of cards about to fall?

A monumental win of legal principal over activism. Insanity will be let loose for all to see.
massive outcome
❤️
Well explained. Thanks James. 😊
Thanks for reading Evelyn
Fifty years of prayer finally brought the wall down
That's very true Dianne. The overturning of Roe v Wade had been widely thought impossible. People have been praying for this for 50 years.
This is amazing news! Thanks for sharing, James!
The effect cannot be overstated. Still ... it doesn't mean abortion won't happen. It just means that now the arguments can be had.

Perhaps they do James but the bottom line which socialists don’t understand is that law is law it is not emotion
Thanks James. Easy to understand.
You're welcome. It's an enormous decision that will have effects for a generation ... hopefully good ones!
