The Seen and the Unseen: Abortion and the Supreme Court

Liberty. Freedom. Autonomy. Privacy. Choice. Abortion sounds really good when you talk about it like that. It sounds like a right. But unfortunately all this freedom comes at a price--we have to deny the humanity of the unborn child. As Roe v. Wade puts it, "(T)he word 'person, ' as used in the Fourteenth Amendment, does not include the unborn." As far as the Supreme Court is concerned, there is no baby. When we abort a pregnancy, we are not aborting a baby or killing a baby. That baby never existed. This is what our authorities say. The Supreme Court often writes about abortion in the nicest way possible, in cases like Roe and Danforth and Webster and Casey. But there are ugly cases, too, and the Supreme Court has to hear those cases as well. There is Simopoulos and Catholic League and Carhart and Carhart II. For every "nice" abortion case involving liberty and the autonomy of women, there is an awful case representing an atrocity that our authorities want to hide. Why is there a dead baby in a motel room bathroom? Why is a doctor strangling a newborn to death? Why are we stabbing babies in the middle of birth? Read The Seen and the Unseen, and find out what our unelected jurists have been up to.
