Abortion is murder. It is not a choice. Steele is a far left liberal and this interview is just an illustration of what many of us already suspected.
However, abortion laws need to be administered and prosecuted at the state level. The founders understood that our Constitution was made for a moral people. America is allegedly a nation with a Christian majority yet abortion, divorce and sodomy are epidemic. Unless there is a widespread repentance and re-awakening of Christians abortion will never be made illegal at the local, state or federal level. The federal government does not have the authority to enforce murder laws within the several states of the union, and I do not want them to assume that authority. There is a great risk that they would use that authority for other purposes. Humanists trust in the goodness of man. I do not.
This is not an either/or question. It is “all of the above.”
All officers of the United States, at every level, swear to defend and uphold the Constitution, a document that states as its crowning purpose the securing of the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity.
The organic law of the United States, in all its parts, recognizes and protects innocent human life. The constitutions of all fifty states do the same.
Oaths before Almighty God are not a light thing.
And those oaths were sworn before the people as well. It’s time that the people demand that those oaths be kept.
If we won’t make and enforce that imperative demand, this country, and the liberty of its people, cannot be saved. This is an inevitability. If the foundations are destroyed, the house cannot possibly stand.
That is not the point. The federal government would assume no such authority, nor would enforcement pass to any federal entity.
It is not an enforcement of murder, or criminal law, which remains with the states, as it always has.
The protection of Life is a Constitutional matter because the very purpose of the Constitution is to protect our rights. Those rights, considered inalienable, are not granted by men, nor by the Constitution itself, but are given by God, as our very foundational document, the Declaration of Independence so eloquently states. And just so we are clear, the very first right ever enumerated, as being inalienable, was in fact the right to Life!
This inherent protection of life found in the Declaration of Independence and the Preamble to the Constitution, which lay out the purpose of our government, is further buoyed by the limits placed upon the government, both the federal and the states, within the 5th and 14th amendments, which specifically prevent either level of government from taking life without due process. Since the power flows from the states, this also prevents any level under them from taking life without due process.
In other words, the Constitution prevents ANY level of government from sanctioning the taking of life without due process- Life is held sacrosanct, and above the courts of men, except in criminal law, and even then, only with good reason, and due process of law.
The Constitution proclaims the protection of Life, and every level of our government must comply with that.
This does not give power to the federal government, nor does it take any power away from the states. It was never either of theirs to begin with. The power to kill without cause has NEVER been given to any level of our government, or to our citizens.
A proper overturning of Roe v. Wade would *not* return the question of Life to the states. Justices intent upon the letter of the law, and preservation of the Constitution, which they have sworn to uphold, would return the question to the proper Court- The Royal Court of Jehovah, God Almighty, where it rightfully belongs, according to the Declaration of Independence, which takes precedence over every document in these United States.
The Constitution plainly states that the question of Life is above the Supreme Court's pay grade, and therefore, above the level of any law in the land, except in criminal cases, and then with due process.
Until this very basic premise is understood and accepted, there will be no justice in our land, and without justice, there will be no peace. ANY right, placed in the hands of men, is removed from it's rightful place, and puts all of our rights in dire jeopardy, don't you see?
They do not belong to the feds. They do not belong to the states. They don't even belong to "We the People", as even we cannot take them away... Our rights are God-given and it is only in recognizing that fact that we will remain forever free. The moment we assign those rights to anyone else's care, they will be stolen from us, of that you can be sure.
