I don’t subscribe to the notion that the central government should be telling sovereign states how to conduct their business

Generally it shouldn't. But if that business the states are meddling in is immoral, the central government ought to have the right to tell them to knock it off via an amendment. Morality first, Constitution second.

OK, the federal government decided that the prohibition of the murder of unborn children was immoral (denying women the fundmental “right to choose”), striking down state laws protecting the sanctity of life. How many Americans have been butchered in the womb (or partially extracted from the womb) as a result?
