SCOTUS overturns Roe megathread (pg 53 - confirmed)

[DaleCooper]

Our God IS an Awesome God!

This decision is only ging to drive younger people further and further away from religion. You do realise that?

Four people to date have recommended this, none of which have a history of caring what God might thing enough to change their mind on an issue.  I take these assessments with a grain of salt.  

I can assure you that God's reputation is in the toilet, especially among younger people in this country, and it's "Christians" who have put it there. Prominent Christians in this country made the decision a while back to whore themselves and their faith out for worldly influence, and because of that sin, Christianity in the US is now often seen as a brand or cultural identity rather than a genuine faith. And that's a reputation that all Christians, even the good ones, have to deal with now.

Christians have forgotten what they're here for, and that's to serve others and lead people to Christ. It's not to save the world themselves through political action. Look at Trump, one of the men most responsible for this repeal. He's a hell-bound man. Trump is 76 and will soon die, and the "Christians" who have been kissing his ass for the last few years have never once bothered to attempt to lead that man to Christ. Even worse, they're willing to publicly pretend that he's Christian because they need his influence and power. They're fine with him and his devotees burning in hell if it means they can get some more political power to push whatever their next issue is. It's goddamn disgusting. How can you possibly expect people who don't already agree with you to take anything you say related to God seriously?

What a ing travesty this can happen in a developed country in the 21st century.

Guarantee many of the same pro-lifers are all about “my body my choice” with the vaccine and demand the gov to stay away from regulating their guns even if lives would be saved. What the hell is going on with the US?

Abortion is a pretty big deal for the person in the womb whose most fundamental human right is being stripped from them.

I'm also not even anti-vax, nor was I anti-COVID restrictions in the early stages of the pandemic. It would be hypocritical of me to say women shouldn't get abortions because it kills living humans for purely selfish purposes, but people should be free to do whatever they want and not be subject to any restrictions in a worldwide pandemic when no vaccine exists yet.

One person that dealt with the issue of abortion was my grandchild who died in an abortion.  That child would be 20 years old now.  That child felt pain before they died; pain that you would Constitutionally object to if it were felt by a convicted murderer, and pain that you would have more pity for if it were suffered by an unborn animal.

What would you say to that unborn child as they felt the pain death by abortion brings?

I don't get maudlin about this subject, but I'm certainly thinking about it today.  My unborn grandchild is with Jesus for Eternity and has no memory of the pain.  That does not justify the actions of humans on this Earth.

Let the reader decide.  I'm sorry that my religious convictions didn't lead me to vote the way you'd like me to, but my reasoning is far more consistent and Biblical than those who argue that a Biblical Christian ought to have voted for Biden. 

The Biden Administration has unleashed the Forces of Mordor against the church.  They are actively anti-Christian, not just passively.  Voting is a choice between two (2) individuals, not an endorsement of that candidate's every issue position.  I have no regrets as to my 2016 and 2020 votes.

Back on topic.

[longtimelurker]

What a sad day for this country. I shudder to think about what's next. Will the Court overturn marriage equality? I assume that will be the next challenge, if it isn't already in the works.

Same sex relations, contraception, school integration,

And maybe the economic issues as well, social security, Medicare,


The whole new deal paradigm is at risk.

I would like to add Epperson v. Arkansas, Edwards v. Aguillard, and other decisions which forbade public schools to teach "creationism" as science.  Get ready for the fundamentalist interpretation of the Noachian deluge to be given equal time with geology and biology in taxpayer-funded schools in the majority of states.

[Fuzzy Bear]

Based Tony Evers said that he won't appoint any DAs who will enforce any ban on abortion and he'll immediately pardon anyone charged with a crime for one.

As long as that Pathetic Worm is defeated at the polls this year I'm fine with that.  It's a salvo against the Rule of Law, but God is bigger than that pathetic nerd (whom I actually endorsed in 2018). 

[Adam Griffin]

All Democrats (especially at the state level) have to do is start yelling "Marbury v. Madison" and/or "judicial review" - or what? Is the Supreme Court going to send in its army?

This country has been on Terri Schiavo levels of life support for the past 40 years. Let's just get it over with now. Who's going to win, after all: the tightly-clustered and defensible population centers allied with multinational corporations who actually own most of the land, food, water and utility operations alongside the educated people who actually fly the drones, turn the keys and drop the bombs, or....the rubes whose Walmarts, pharmacies, utilities and grocery stores can be red-zoned, along with those who spent 20 weeks in basic/AIT and/or can shoot at planes with 1% accuracy?

Solid you do know that you can just post in the thread, right? You don't need to tweet it and then repost the tweets into the thread.

So in order to preserve "abortion rights", a scumbag like Ben Jealous would be willing to pursue criminal charges against an American Citizen (Brett Kavanaugh) for which there would actually not be Probable Cause (let alone be able to swear in an information that they would be able to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt at trial).  That's interesting; the degree to which people will go to in order to protect this Sacred Cow.

I'm just wondering if the poster has thought this out.  I'm just wondering if people actually think this is a great idea.  I'm just wondering if people think that taking this approach on abortion could not be used in reverse by conservatives against liberals.  After all, when you throw out the Probable Cause standard for initiating charges, what CAN'T one get arrested for?

This is truly a lunatic idea that I hope is confined to a limited group of posters.

Guarantee many of the same pro-lifers are all about “my body my choice” with the vaccine and demand the gov to stay away from regulating their guns even if lives would be saved. What the hell is going on with the US?

tbf the whole "my body, my choice" when it came to COVID restrictions started as something to point out that most pro-choicers were completely fine with giving up bodily autonomy to save other humans when it came to that issue, but not when it comes to an issue that is literally designed to kill humans.

An abortion is strictly a matter for the person dealing with it. A vaccine is a rather minor inconvenience at worse for 99.99% of people that has a tremendous utilitarian purpose for society as a whole, and not doing so was to a detriment for 0 rational reasoning besides “well I don’t trust the experts”.

Keep telling yourself that.  

https://lozierinstitute.org/new-study-shows-unborn-babies-feel-pain-at-12-weeks

Dr. David Prentice, Vice President and Research Director of the Charlotte Lozier Institute commented:

“Unborn babies feel pain. The science has clearly shown for years that unborn children can perceive pain in the womb, but this is a significant admission by doctors on both sides of the abortion debate, recognizing that even early in human development, the unborn can feel pain. And as the authors note, ‘the mere experience of pain…is morally significant.’ Science again points to the humanity of the unborn.”
