Here is a link to a good essay by Richard Stith. Stith states:
“I’m grateful that the majority of the US Supreme Court in its 2022 Dobbs case overturned the Court’s 1973 Roe v. Wade decision (and the 1992 Casey decision) that had declared the existence of a constitutional right to elective abortion.
Some of my friends are disappointed, however, that the Supreme Court left the abortion question up to state and federal law, rather than recognizing the unborn child as a fellow human being with his or her own constitutional right to life. This disappointment is understandable.
But it’s important that we also take note of some strikingly pro-life aspects of the Dobbs majority’s opinion, and even of the opinion of the pro-choice dissent.”
As we approach the 50th anniversary of Roe, here is a link to my article entitled “Re-Reading Roe v. Wade.” Here is the conclusion of that article:
“In sum, the overwhelming sense that comes through a rereading of Roe is that Justice Blackmun authored an incredibly
weak opinion. I think that portends the decision’s ultimate
reversal. The Supreme Court and the American system do have
the capacity for self-correction and the deep flaws in the key case
establishing a nearly unlimited right to an abortion suggest that
the ultimate reversal of Roe v. Wade is likely.”
