"Constitution never contained anything about a right to privacy.

It is a found right."

Actually, it is not. The Preamble to the Constitution makes it clear ALL rights, privacy included, are endowments from the Creator and are not items the "government" has in its posession to dispense at will. That stated, a "right to privacy" in no instance gives an "okay" to infringe upon another's endowment of those same rights to life and liberty, ie. with abortion.

The Constitution never was intended to "give the people rights" but was specifically setting limitations upon which the governing body could regulate or infringe upon those rights naturally bestowed by the Creator to the individual.

In summary, constitutionally, the government has NO rights at all - except those surrendered to it by its subjects and NONE has the right to infringe upon those of another without due process of law.

That's why I believe abortion aided by the government to be in direct violation of the Constitution as abortion ends a life without their having had due process of law.

Thank you for your much clearer explanation re Roe v Wade. You said it much better than I did back at #97.

SSS,

See the post that this is in response to if you are still unclear on my intent in #97.
