Banning abortion for conservatism is the same as the Gay Marriage issue for liberals. It is going to bite us in the ass.
No it won't. Because we're right and they're NOT. There is such a thing as RIGHT and WRONG with no shades of gray. Good versus EVIL. I'm not a relativist, and by their vote neither is a majority of this nation. Abortion is wrong and evil. Homosexuality is also wrong and evil. God said it, I believe it and that settles it.
Reversing Roe v Wade is not the same thing as banning abortion. Abortion never belonged in the courts to begin with. It is consistent to oppose the judicial activism that forced abortion on demand onto the states just as it would be to use judicial activism to force "gay marriage" on the states.
Only if you believe upwards of 75% of the public favor abortion on demand. My guess is it's closer to 22%.
It's more than abortion. Specter is conservative only when he has to be and liberal whenever he can get away with it. He's also proved himself to be a backstabber.
Except that gay marriage is wrong. Banning abortion isn't.
If abortion is not outlawed, then the United States will come to a definitive end. Allowing abortion requires that the State decree that some human beings are not entitled to the protection of the homicide laws. The United States cannot continue to exist while flouting the basic principle that our rights come to from God, through our created human nature, and that the State exists to secure these rights--not to create them and not to trample them.
If homosexuality is genetically transmitted and abortion is legal, then conceivably we could stamp out homosexuality by genetic testing and aborting those babies carrying the hypothetical "homosexuality gene". If this had happened in the 1930's then you wouldn't be here--that is if homosexuality is genetically transmitted and not just a bad choice.
