This is why I worry about the Little Sisters of the Poor case. That is about the much more broad mandate of contraceptives.
I don’t disagree that contraception is an authentic moral problem. But unless there is an actual unique human life at stake, its not abortion. Potential human lives can be considered, but thats a slippery slope. If one chooses to wait a few years to get married, because they don’t want to have children until they are financially secure, they are preventing conception, are they not? And there may be a moral breach in such decisions. But not murder. Abortion is murder. Contraception is not always murder. Keeping the distinction clear helps us win hearts and minds for the cause of the unborn. You can’t legislate against every violation of God’s will for our lives (we’d all be in prison!). But you can legislate against murder. That’s how we win. Keep the definition consistent. That’s all I’m saying.
Absolutely!

“As it is now, the 5-4 rulings today were way too close.”
Exactly!
Over the last few years, too many of these ruling have been way too close.
We (the conservatives) are one heart attack or one stroke away from allowing Obama to pick the next Supreme Court justice.
And we all know what’s gonna happen then. We will sit back and watch (at least for the next 20 years) as an Obama-appointed court turns this nation’s laws and culture into a giant pile of ____.
I fear for our nation now. I will fear even more for it with the next nomination.
