Gorsuch: Abortion, Same Sex Marriage 'Settled Law' (Sort Of)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 

By Bill Wilson

Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch was pretty coy during confirmation hearings when asked about same sex marriage and abortion. Senator Charles Grassely, (R-IA) asked if Roe was decided correctly? Gorsuch responded: “It is a precedent of the United States Supreme Court. It was reaffirmed in Casey in 1992, and in several other cases. So a good judge will consider it as precedent of the United States Supreme Court, worthy as treatment of precedent like any other.”

He gave a similar response when Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL) asked about same sex marriage, “Senator, the Supreme Court of the United States has held that single-sex marriage is protected by the Constitution.” What does this tell us?

Gorsuch responded by stating a fact. Both these issues are settled law of the Supreme Court. But he didn’t say if given the chance, he would vote to overturn them and send them back to the states. You see, neither of these issues is enumerated specifically by the U.S. Constitution.

The Tenth Amendment states: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.” Many states, even California, overwhelmingly rejected legalizing homosexual marriage in referendums. The Supreme Court, led by leftist justices, overruled the states, even though there is nothing about marriage in the Constitution.

Many could correctly argue that the very keystone of our nation’s formation protects the unborn. The Declaration of Independence states:

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 —  that to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…

This is the social contract with all Americans. The Supreme Court in 1973 used the right to privacy to legalize killing babies in the womb. Again, another liberal court twisted the meaning of words and context away from their original intent to establish new law.

President Donald Trump said he would appoint Supreme Court Justices who were pro-life and, if possible, they would cause the court to reconsider Roe and allow the states to decide. He made similar comments about same-sex marriage. By limiting his answers to facts, Gorsuch signaled that he may be open to this possibility. As Christians, we do not have to participate in abortion or same-sex marriage even though it is the law. Likewise, we should not be forced to support it through our tax money.

The Lord says in Deuteronomy 30:19, “…I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both you and your seed may live.”

And he says in Leviticus 18:22, “You shall not lie with a man, as with a woman: it is abomination.”

Gorsuch’s answers left room for hope of a return to God’s settled law.

Have a Blessed and powerful day!
