And, just to prevent unnecessary debate... I believe that life begins at conception. I believe abortion should be legal under the Roe framework. I believe Griswald prevents banning contraception. My only beef is the suggestion that only the "religious right" whatever the hell that is could believe abortion is wrong and that life begins at conception. The onset of life is a purely scientific question.... not a religious one. Though one the "religious right" seem to understand a bit better than the non "religious right."
The worry is a tempest in a teapot that cannot withstand judicial scrutiny. |
Although you can find non religious people on the right who aren't against abortion, you'd be hard pressed to find a member of the religious right not opposed.
