Here is a link to a very good article by David Smolin (Cumberland Law). The article is entitled “Aborting Reason and Equality: A Religious Pro-Life Critique of Roe, Casey, and Abortion Rights Rhetoric.” Here is a paragraph from his introduction:
“Thus, religion’s role in regard to abortion is primarily that of calling society to apply to the abortion issue society’s own values of rationality, respect for human dignity, constitutionalism, democratic governance, science, and non-discrimination. Further, resistance to the abortion right is grounded not in idiosyncratic religious dogma or irrational belief, but in presuppositions shared broadly in American society. Hence, religion and religious organizations involved in anti-abortion activism are not seeking an aberrant exception to society’s norms, but rather are participants in a broader movement founded in the most fundamental norms of our society.”
