JUST IN - U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, returning decision on abortion laws to individual states.
Alito: "The Constitution makes no reference to abortion, and no such right is implicitly protected by any constitutional provision."

Thought provoking essay here, lads. Auron McIntyre explains why the left pushes such ridiculous nonsense- lies serve as an effective psychological organizing tool. https://youtu.be/se5PUqyqGhM

While the overturning of Roe v. Wade. is excellent news, abortion has not been solved.
First off, as you’re probably aware, this means that individual states’ laws on abortion can take effect. Most blue states have laws robustly protecting abortion, and about half of red states still haven’t banned abortion. Furthermore, those that have still leave loopholes and shortcomings (such as making exceptions for cases of rape or the “health” of the mother).
Beyond a blanket ban on all abortions excepting cases where the mother is reasonably certain to die if she delivers, we should also advocate a just punishment for cases of abortion. The death penalty should most certainly be applied to the doctors, mothers, and fathers who execute or procure abortions, or aid and abet those who do.
We should also support a comprehensive definition of abortion which includes the morning after pill and in vitro fertilization. Let’s work to make this the normal conservative position.

Is the Song of Solomon an allegory of Christ and the Church? No; here are several supporting arguments:
1) There is nothing in the text or context which suggests this is an allegory (such as the fantastical language found in Revelation).
2) While the marital relationship is a picture of Christ and the Church, this in no wise implies that any and every description of marriage must "akshually" be talking about Jesus.
3) To try to twist it away from its plain meaning, a marital love poem, devalues God's gift of marriage. Those who think such a topic is too "ordinary" or "carnal" show what they think about God's good gifts.
4) Interpreting it as an allegory provides no value or profit. If we take it as an allegory, what do we actually gain from reading the book? Nothing. The book describes the relationship between two individuals, but the relationship between Christ and the church is not this- the church is a corporate entity. So no individual believer can or should read themselves into the narrative. Thus, there is nothing to be gained by treating it as an allegory.
5) In fact, it's tremendously unhealthy and weird for individuals to view themselves as being individually in a relationship with Christ like this. Far from being noble and spiritual, it's weird, effeminate, and extremely unhealthy for men especially.

The Jesuit magazine America responds to the Roe reversal in a winsome way:
"3. Refuse to support laws and policies that punish women who seek an abortion. The only reasonable option is to return to the pre-Roe norm: Abortion laws held liable those who performed the abortion, not those who sought them."
If abortion is murder, then the women who get abortion are murderers. If aborting women are not murderers, then abortion isn't murder and we have a very different ethical discussion.
One reason "pro-life" is useless is that it refuses to see women as moral agents who can commit crimes and instead treats them as victims. Donald Trump was quickly corrected by pro-lifers when he accidently blurted out that aborting women should be punished.
You may love your friend or family member who got an abortion, but she's still a killer. She's no different from the convicted murderers who would be ordinary people if not for some unusual situation that led to drastic measures.
