As per requests for further explanation:
Discrimination based in individual right to choice has no merits of justification when the rights to choose are taken
from others to exercise their own rights. The concept that a personal right to do as one wishes “as long as it does
not harm another” loses its logic and sense of reason when there is confusion about what is acceptable and what is not.
For example: Stealing is not anyone’s right of choice no matter how convinced one is about their own rights to decide
whether others have their own right to own what a thief wants.
Abortion is stealing the rights of unborn people to fend for themselves against selfish whims of discrimination to
bolster one’s own concepts of what the quality of life means at the expense of the innocent. There is a quandary concerning
the establishment of religion by state definition, simply because a core aspect of religious faith is based in definitions.
Our Creator reveals to us our purpose for being as we live our lives but we lose His way continually trying to find our own.
Many times in our search for Him we are searching for ourselves through His principles with the belief that His principles
will lead us to Him. There is a common misconception that being a Christian is to be nice and compliant – considerate,
yes, but true Christians are necessarily tough and rugged people, averse to gossip mongering. The grace of security and protection
in privacy God provides for us as a people is in the sanctity of the marriage bond. In the order of creation, all any man
has is his word. Anything else that is of a man is manifested by means of God’s grace for natural living subject to
a man’s word.
When a wedding brings a woman into contract as one with a man, her word unites with his in God’s Word of life
giving power of faith action. Under their shared name a man establishes his word by promise to his wife and she becomes him,
his word, as he becomes her, her word. Together, they constitute the central focus of reason material existence is being brought
to life day by day, by God for His glory. Hebrews 11:3 says: Through faith
we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which
do appear.
When a fetus is developing, whether in a lab or in the uterus, he or she, as gender is easily determined, is alive.
When the ending and/or beginning of living human embryos is at the hands of lab technicians, it is still impossible to separate
the state from the church. Because of this, it is not the state to decide legal responsibility unless the saving of a life
is considered a custody issue, or the taking of a life involved is considered murder. This means that health and healing,
and the research applied to medical well being, is always a religious issue as well as a legal issue.
It is impossible to accommodate various religious perspectives without eliminating any decisive standards controlled
by law, so, in deciding moral issues by law, the state binds itself to decide what forms of religious observance are acceptable
– the US Constitution disallows such considerations. In an effort to sidestep conflicting church and state views, science
is embraced as an applied medical pragmatism, a substitute for common sense, that attempts to elevate practical physical convenience
above law and religion. God, our Creator, has a specific plan for when everyone is to be born, and to whom.
The authority over each person’s body belongs to that person as a priority over right, or wrong – holiness,
or sinfulness. Marriage is the accountable exception to independent decisive authority over one’s own body: 1 Corinthians
7:4; The wife over her own body hath not authority, but the husband, and in like manner, the husband also over his own
body hath not authority, but the wife. God has a plan for each human life. His plan is overridden by and through our
self-willed denial of God’s right of creation in irresponsibly experiencing the pleasures of His joy of creation.
Each soul, only once, finds the freedom of incarnation through conception by a man and birth of a woman. Aborted souls
are not allowed to be conceived into the flesh a second time through another union because God is unwaveringly steadfast in
His devoted call to our responsibility. A child who dies before he or she has a chance to learn about life and salvation misses
the opportunity to exercise their will to be a part of a family, the church, the body of Christ and the world, the way God
originally desired and designed. So, a woman’s true reproductive rights may only be found in combination with her husband.
To emancipate a woman necessarily entails emasculating a man. Satan's primary method of attack is exploitation passing
through the natural virtues of sacrifice. Because he is a user, and not a creator, he has a counterfeit, a deceptive substitute,
for all the attributes and intentions of God. He taunts and tempts us away from the leading of the Truth of life through the
activities and attitudes of the people around us. He uses ironic physical symbolism to appeal to the soul, contrary to the
interactive honesty of the Word of God.
Emotional compensation for intimidation is the prideful spite against oppositional spiritual intrusion. Self protective
habits of defensive practice reinforce patterns of negativity - while guilt manipulation to obtain behavioral outcome is an
emotional terrorism with the spotlight in self-serving results. An aborted child has not been given the chance to live. Not
only are the sins of slaying, infidelity, and betrayal involved, but the circumstances surrounding the situation causes an
attempt to keep the matter secret. Sin upon sin causes a binding that generates more sin.
If one is not married, the sin of adultery is against a man and woman’s future wife and husband, correspondingly,
and is combined with the sins of breaking chastity and fornication. The only course for the power of faith for repentance
is to confess the wrongdoing to the husband and/or wife who has been betrayed. This allows the honor to make a decision whether
he or she desires to end the union or extend forgiveness as requested. Without this honesty and respect, the hidden indulgences
create a daily living in the perception of a lie as truth.
Marriage suffers the loss of the very witness God brought it together through the vows of decision to portray. To prevent
a chasm of dishonesty from gnawing through trustworthiness, our place in Christ encourages us to be open and honest about
our disrespect for others and ourselves – providing grace, mercy, and if need be longsuffering in our understanding
about the urges and compassions of flesh instincts. A fundamental element of sin is secrecy.
The greater and more numerous the sin(s), the deeper the inclination to secrecy. The understanding that all sin is
forgiven in Christ is subverted by logic and reason when we are uncomfortable with asking a person we have harmed to forgive
us. Private situations are best not to be confessed only to God in secret because Jesus is our mediator Who allows our stability
and security to engage in active discourse about the most dire of matters. Because the Authority of Christ is presented through
the members of His body – the people responsible to one another – the forgiveness provided to us on the Cross
is extended to us through the hand of the one(s) we have harmed.
In cases of infidelity, the involved man and woman are subject to the rights of the husband and his wife with the woman’s
priority of rights within the authority of marriage over the rights of an involved other man. Underage children are subject
to the rights of their parents. Self respect, the joy of satisfaction with integrity of purpose, and self control are measures
we all can take to the ways in which we allow God’s Word to be our word in our interactive decision making.
Any child a woman bears is under the name authority of her and her husband as name authority takes precedence over
blood issues. This is because under the old covenant of the Law (Old Testament) blood inheritance carried precedence in establishing
an inherited name. Under the new covenant of Faith (New Testament) a name of unity in promise carries the grace and mercy
to adopt blood ordinances under Christ’s authority in the name of a man married to a woman. The name inherited is of
Christ in His spirit of Truth of fulfilled promise.
As for custody issues, an underage child is the full responsibility of a man and woman together who are married. Any
children born to a woman, no matter when or whose biological source, (including any infidelity or other reason after a date
of marriage) belongs to the authority of a marriage in God’s name. A woman’s husband, whether or not a child’s
natural father, is the child’s responsible father, under the child’s mother’s consent to be one with her
husband in all things through the initial vows of marriage. The initial vows of marriage are ongoing living vows real in God’s
Word in His dynamic leading day to day by and through the man and woman’s faith togetherness.
If we are convicted in our heart concerning a betrayal of another we should go to them, honestly explain the matter
of transgression, and ask for their forgiveness. Matters of discretion should remain between the ones directly involved unto
God. The forgiveness we have in Christ is not automatic in the sense where we exploit His grace and mercy. Forgiveness for
wrongdoing is best requested from people we have sinned against to allow them to exercise their faith and generosity. Wedding
vows are sufficient to keep established a right perspective about the priorities of decision men and women rely in to strengthen
their faith active decisions.
We should not expect another person to readily forgive us easily and effortlessly as if a matter has little consequence.
At the same time we must faithfully expect in hope they will. Remember, a sin against anyone, including ourselves, is a sin
against the Cross and Resurrection. Our visual presence of the witness of God is our husband or wife. We should not disrespect
their place and authority as given to them by our Creator. When a person sinned against is unavailable or cannot be approached,
we have intercessory prayer as an avenue for solution.
We should not despair into self debasement because God understands the particulars. As God’s example, everyone
has the right to choose not to extend his or her forgiveness to us, though they may be forfeiting their own forgiveness from
God. Do not carry your sin to the grave. Overall, the rights of a woman to personal freedom in life are interlinked with the
rights of any personally involved man, leaving both subject to the responsible priorities necessary to insure the well being
of unborn children.

A note about the US Supreme Court Roe vs. Wade decision
The ruling was a compromise to determine a course of action considering the conflicting concerns presented. Every matter
brought to legal deliberation is particular in its values and detractions and cannot sensibly set a precedent for other cases
and/or the general population, unless it is a collective “class action” suit where one matter affects a number
of separate parties, together, before the court.
The controversy about Roe vs. Wade will not be resolved because the meaning to the people involved in one case is not
the same as the resulting reactionary meaning of implied permission of action or prohibition to others in their own situations.
There is a conceptual but improbable way to legally stem the tide of widespread ‘drive through’ abortion; Just
as every case of divorce must go before a court, even though marriage is recognized as a permanent unity of bond; each mother/child
case in relation to father, mother, and child life assessment of safety should be brought before a court for determination.
The combined issues of secrecy (in the name of privacy), and time factor urgency, is why it is difficult to manage
the elimination of risks after the risks have been taken. What should be done about what has been done has overridden why
we do what we do in the first place. So, proper individual court solutions find a loss to the management of personal free
will.
Whether marriage/divorce, or right to life/right of choice, there is an undeniable combined interest of Church and
State where neither can be separate from the other. One of the reasons for interest in the separation of church influence
in state, and state influence in church, is the majority of church standards oppose abortion while some state interpretation
of law standards deem abortion legal.
These natural church and state positions, together in a right way and opposed in a wrong way, suppose an authority
to determine private family matters via the power of institutionally collective imposition over family authority. The attitudes
of sexual indiscretion and irresponsible whims-of-the-moment relationship has itself taken the bedroom out from the religious
and legal authority of security and protection traditional marriage holds over both church and state.
In the Roe vs Wade case, the decision
took so long to be determined (three years), the unborn child in question was born into the world, and is alive and doing
well today, almost 40 years later.
