In America, all our constitutional protections rest on the Founders’ premise that all human beings are “endowed by their Creator” with both life and the liberty to “pursue happiness.” That is the sole reason they are deemed unalienable, because they are derived, not from another human being, not from a government, but from God.

“The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them.” - Thomas Jefferson

That understanding underlies every other consideration embodied in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. It is the very basis of our rights to life, liberty, and laws to protect them.

Since the 1970’s, technological advances have enabled us to observe God’s tiniest creations in the womb. We no longer have an excuse for imagining that these are blobs of tissue labeled “fetuses.” They are living babies who will have life and liberty if we do not “destroy” them.

At the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington DC on February 3, 1994, Mother Teresa stated: “And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?”

Indeed, if we cannot protect the life and liberty of these smallest versions of ourselves, then Mother Teresa’s words take on significant meaning.

How shameful that a Supreme Court Justice does not make that connection between Creator-endowed rights and the duty to protect them acknowledged by the Framers of America’s Constitution!

James Madison, called the “father” of that Constitution, thought otherwise, as did his fellow Framers:

“The Religion then of every man must be left to the conviction and conscience of every man; and it is the right of every man to exercise it as these may dictate. This right is in its nature an unalienable right. It is unalienable; because the opinions of men, depending only on the evidence contemplated by their own minds, cannot follow the dictates of other men: It is unalienable also; because what is here a right towards men, is a duty towards the Creator. It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator such homage, and such only, as he believes to be acceptable to him. This duty is precedent both in order of time and degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society. Before any man can be considered as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe: And if a member of Civil Society, who enters into any subordinate Association, must always do it with a reservation of his duty to the general authority; much more must every man who becomes a member of any particular Civil Society, do it with a saving of his allegiance to the Universal Sovereign. We maintain therefore that in matters of Religion, no man’s right is abridged by the institution of Civil Society, and that Religion is wholly exempt from its cognizance.” - James Madison, Memorial and Remonstrance

All any woman who wants to kill the life within her has to do is call on her local feminazi activists. They’ll fund her bus fare to a more murderous locale and the abortion costs. < /sarc >

She’s a drunken, senile, murderous old battle axe who should have
been retired long ago.

As Ronald Reagan said, “I’ve noticed that all the people who are
pro-abortion have already been born.”

At best the states can only nudge someone away from aborting their child. Anyone determined can abort away in most of the developed world and a good chunk of the rest as well. About 3000 a day in the US and much much more in the rest of the world. I fully expect to see that countless number in heaven one fine day. Those who never got a chance to breath a single breath.

This shriveled up old drunken hag favors the law that gives abortion free to all.

God does exist, but to those who ignore Him or refute His existence there is no right that supersedes their own. It is total self-”right”eousness! Also, the Declaration and Constitution fall without the God of the Bible. The philosophy of today is postmodernism and very evil. It encompasses education and morality. A fun discussion of postmodernism here...

No, but the two will probably end up in the same ring of hell.

long past time for Ginsburg to retire

(it is a shame free abortions weren’t available for her parents, she’s a poster child for their advantages)
