My Opinion:
When the Washington bureaucrats pass laws that dictate religious concepts of morality that we do not
believe in, this violates our rights to freedom of believe.
The real question is one of belief, when is the developing egg a person? When an egg is fertilized it begins
to divided, and form a fetus, but until it is fully formed into the child it will become, it is still a fetus not a
child. It has never known what we call life any more then the millions of eggs that have never been
fertilized and washed away during a menstrual period. I believe the child is not a person until it has fully
developed, at this point it is an individual person with it's own character and has the same right to life as
the rest of us.
The mother should have the right to abort if she does so in early pregnancy, or any time if it in dangers
her life.
I am not a lawyer, and like most of us I learned some basic law when I went through school, but un-like
some I have never stopped learning. The Constitution of the United States is the highest law of the land,
all others must be hold to it. The Federal Laws and the Supreme Court rulings must be Constitutional or
they are not legal. No state may make any law that supersedes a federal law. Anyone may challenge a law
as to it is constitutionality, and it must pass the test or it is illegal and must be thrown out. A law must
protect the rights of a person or group of persons from violation by a person or group of persons. It has
nothing to do with personal feelings, or beliefs. For instance if your religion considers something morally
wrong, and you believe in it then you have the right not to do it. But just because your believe says it is
wrong, does not make it so to some one else who does not believe that way. Under the constitution
everyone has the right to believe as they choose.
