“What people don’t understand is that if you overturn Roe v. Wade, all that does is give the states the right to decide whether abortion is legal or illegal,”

States’ Rights to decide if Capital Murder is legal or illegal?

““The left is going to try very hard to say this is all about overturning Roe,” said Johnnie Moore, a Southern Baptist minister who was a co-chairman of the Trump campaign’s evangelical advisory board. The more significant shift on the high court, he said, would likely be the help given to conservatives in their fight for what they call religious freedom.”

I agree. Only the AP would call this “the best of times” for religious people. We ARE under attack, and the power of government has been used increasingly to crush Christians. Things unthinkable 25 years ago are now common place. Heck, Bill Clinton signed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act - which passed the Senate 97-3 in 1993.

Is there any doubt the same act would be filibustered by Democrats today, and that many Republicans would vote against it as well?

“Evangelical” is a term the poll companies made up in the early 1960s.

I passionately dislike the idea that some conservatives promote that overturning Roe vs. Wade has to be downplayed so a Justice must be selected who has never taken a strong stand against Roe vs. Wade.

That approach resulted in Justice Souter.

That approach resulted in Justice Kennedy.

Protecting preborn babies is not something to be ashamed of and hidden.

Protecting preborn babies is something to be proud of and shown.

Before Roe, it was Reagan’s CA, Rockefeller’s NY, Love’s CO, and I think HI who encouraged legal abortion. Far more than four states will keep the popular but infamous practice. I can envision the outcry when TX “girls” have to go to Albuquerque to get their abortion, or LA “girls” to FL.

The Roe vs. Wade decision by the SCOTUS.. Is a symptom. Not the disease. The sickness is the darknees and absense of God inside some peoples hearts. And NO law can cleanse a heart.
