The SCOTUS clearly established a right of privacy in Griswold v. Connecticut, 381 U.S. 479 (1965). This means that this is an area in which is the the government that does not have standing to act, legislate, or rule.

SCOTUS does not establish Natural Law. They can't. That's God's remit. They're job is to determine what is permitted under the Constitution. Their decision on Griwold was absolutely wrong, but it was just the first of several such decisions that have done much work toward eroding moral standards in our country and establishing a reign of perversion.

The work of the SCOTUS over the past 40 years reads more like the Current Communist Goals than anything even vaguely resembling the morality of our Founding Fathers.

Wait til the perverts want to lower the age of consent to eight years old. Oh yeah...they already do and that will be the next civil right.

Robert Bork has clearly demonstrated that SCOTUS merely created a vague and loosely “right to privacy,” which has produced even more atrocious rulings like Roe v. Wade. Roe wasn’t even a legal attempt in the 51 page opinion of the chief justice.
