Great article!!

[Jack Chaffin Jr]

In my opinion, not so great.  “When conservative evangelical Christians celebrate the Dobbs decision, we scarcely take into account the women who have spiritual beliefs about when human personhood begins that would allow them to terminate their pregnancies.”  So unkind of those celebrating an action that makes it less likely that an infant will have its life taken from it!  Since when is the wrongness of taking a life based on the personal beliefs of the person who chooses to do so?  
 

And, by the way, the Dobbs decision did not outlaw a single abortion.  It simply prevented the Federal government from making that decision on a Constitutional basis.

[Gregory Matthews]

It is said by some authorities that Dobbs simply said that the 14th Amendment to the Constitution did not give women a Constitutional right.  Other parts of the Constitution were not litigated.

In actual fact there is a case making its way through the Courts that suggests that the 13th Amendment to the Constitution gives women a Constitutional right to have an abortion.

We shall have to wait to see how that goes.
