The right to choose any view on abortion is considered a more sacred right than the right of life to the child. Rights have a more valid place in deciding morality than doing or believing what is right.
Partial-birth abortions highlighted the lack of morality a few years ago. Although the majority of Americans opposed partial-birth abortions, and both houses of Congress passed legislation against it , the president refused to sign the legislation because it would take away the mother's right to choose. Freedom to choose was the deciding factor, ignoring long-held foundations concerning the right to life. No matter how gory, how unjustified, how unnecessary, how contradictory, how cruel or how sinful partial-birth abortion is, choosing is a more precious right than the infant's life. Morality has been replaced with freedom.
Our Declaration of Independence reads: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
As the argument was concerning slaves and Native Americans the unborn are not human beings and do not deserve the rights we claim as unalienable rights. If we can limit these rights for others we limit these rights for ourselves.
