But law is, nonetheless, vitally important. Many, many people, especially in an increasingly secular society, especially when many people have loosened or cut their ties to organized religion, rely on the civil law to teach them what is right and what is wrong.

Again, I can't disagree. I'm just not sure it's the most important thing. Maybe I'm seeing the entire issue as a three-legged stool sort of thing.

You are correct.
The fact is that our culture and our laws are out of sync. Primarily because our 'law' was imposed by fiat, not by the normal process. Technology has let us all see that they are BABIES not lumps of tumorous tissue. Our demographic changes (includsing Catholic inmigration and the aging of the hedonists of the WWII/divorce at will generation) and 30 years of killing off of the children of the left all combine to craft this moment in time. It is the LAW leg of the tripod that is out of synch, it is time to fix that.

Dear Amelia,

I'm fine with the three-legged stool analogy. Certainly law is just one leg.

But a stool with two legs only doesn't work very well.

Protecting the unborn in law is vital.

Roe must go.
