What is the legal definition of "life"?

THAT is the million dollar question.  Many beleive it is the moment of conception.  There is and will be NO conclusive definition that all will agree on.  Why not leave this issue to the will of the people instead of nine black robes?

No, that is the religious definition! And I am not about to leave it to a bunch of individuals who cannot even agree on which sky daddy is the right one!

Those "nine black robes" are constitutionally bound to make such calls!

and those black robes have shown that THEY can even dispute and not have the same view on the Constitution....it is now a manner of having the correct number of black robes that think the same, to say something is constitutional.

So, are you saying because you may disagree with the SCOTUS then we should not abide by their decisions? It is after all constitutional.

I'm not ready to cross down that path.....I'm just stating a danger I see as a potential threat.  I know that YOU see this also.

You're damned right I see it, and that decision to grant faceless soul-less corporations constitutional rights was just a symptom of what I see wrong with the SCOTUS. However, Roe vs Wade has very little to do with those sitting there now. . . Aside from them affirming the decision.

Yeah, just like "we" did with Charlie White, the republican elect secretary of state of Indiana that is looking more and more like he is going to be doing a stretch in the sin bin. . .

I won't dispute what is true, but:

This case just proves how blinded voters have become to the candidates they are voting for. They suck up the propaganda and mudslinging lies as if they were the gospel being spewed by the messiah, and in the process elect pseudo nazi's and criminals into office that are worse than the ones we had in office in the first place!  :mad:

Just for the record he has not been proven guilty of anything....he has been indicted, NO verdict has been reached.  Apparently YOU have reached a verdict already...is is possible, JUST possible that you are a victim of being "sucked up the propaganda and mudslinging lies as if they were the gospel"?

Possible, but not probable.

When a grand jury hands down an indictment you can bet that whatever the evidence is, it is pretty damning. Besides, I believe that where there is smoke there is fire. And now the guy is under a second investigation over his handling of a report on his own case!

Or do you think that the state assembled a grand jury consisting entirely of democrats?  :rolleyes:
