That's now how you decide what is or is not constitutional.
It's how the Constitution decides. Try reading the 10th Amendment.
LMAO, try reading a Supreme Court opinion. I know, I know, it's WAY harder than your trusty pocket constitution you got at a Ron Paul rally, but it's ACTUAL law.
Hint: Three-Fifths clause is out.
Try reading the Constitution. You've admitted the word abortion is not there.
start with the life liberty and pursuit of happiness of the woman who does not want or is not ready to be a mother yet, not the life that has not developed or been born yet.
Childbirth is risky and not all women are willing to take the time or the risk to have a child. In a choice, I married my spouse, not some future infant, spouse over fetus, nearly came to that twice. In an ER, the woman's life is priority over fetus. If the fetus is not at least 7mo there is little chance of healthy survival. yes there have been a few cases but far from the norm.
For the christians............an infant has to be a month after birth before it is of value. Even today infants die for many nearly unpreventable reasons, if they make it past childbirth. Having an abortions were not illegal till the 16th C. Performing them in some cases was seen by "radicals" as witchcraft. For those of other faiths most allow or have no view on abortions.
This objection on religious or moral grounds is bunk. It is men's ways of enslaving women and having superiority over them. Choice does not mean a woman must have an abortion, it just says they have the freedom to make that decision if it is right for them. Early home abortions, naturally or chemically should be a first options and clinical/surgical only if the first attempts fail or the woman's life is at risk.
Anyway you look at it, it is none of your damn business unless you are the woman making the choice.
Life style, sexual orientation, who someone falls in love with or has sex with is not either as long as it is consensual
The only sex life you control is your own, keep you big nose to yourself
"For the Christians . . . an infant has to be a month after birth before it is of value"
That is an absolutely retarded statement.
When a woman makes the choice to have a child that she then can't support, why does it become the responsibility of those she told to butt out of her choice to support that child for her financially? If the choice is her, the responsibility is hers, as well. If she can't support the choice she made, tough shit. When you "it's her body" people start abiding by that mindset, tell me.
And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver. -- Leviticus 27:6
Number the children of Levi after the house of their fathers, by their families: every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them. And Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD. -- Numbers 3:15-16
As for the killing of a fetus
>>
God sometimes approves of killing fetuses.
And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? ... Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. -- Numbers 31:15-17
(Some of the non-virgin women must have been pregnant. They would have been killed along with their unborn fetuses.)
Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. -- Hosea 9:14
Yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb. -- Hosea 9:16
Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up. -- Hosea 13:16
God sometimes kills newborn babies to punish their parents.
Because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. -- 2 Samuel 12:14
God sometimes causes abortions by cursing unfaithful wives.
The priest shall say unto the woman, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell. And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen. ...
And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people. And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed. -- Numbers 5:21-21, 27-28
God's law sometimes requires the execution (by burning to death) of pregnant women.
Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt. -- Genesis 38:24<<
