"The foundation of any civilized society is Natural Law. In fact, I would say that it is a lack of belief in Natural Law that underlies most crimes committed by progressives.(and many crimes committed by nonprogressives). 

"The basic premise of Natural Law is that each person owns his own life and, therefore, has the right of self-choice, the right to do anything he wishes with his life, so long as he does not forcibly interfere with the life of any other person. Natural Law also may be properly thought of as the 'law of nonaggression'; i.e., even though an individual has the right of choice, that does not include the right to commit aggression against others. 

"Any time that an individual.(or group of individuals, such as those today pushing the covid con).exerts authority over someone else's life without his consent, he is violating Natural Law. Which brings me to the difference between Natural Law and government law: Natural Law demands personal freedom, while government law demands that certain people obey the dictates of those in power. 

"More to the point, Natural Law requires that liberty be given a higher value than all other objectives. If one accepts the principle of Natural Law but compromises his beliefs to suit his whims, he is guilty of practicing situational ethics. 

"Now, back to Joan Walsh and her recent slugfest with Bill O'Reilly. On her website, she says 'I'm Irish Catholic and I was raised to think abortion was wrong, but in the end I support the law as it is.' 

"Which makes me wonder if Ms. Walsh would have returned a runaway slave to his master in pre-Civil War America just because that was the law. Or called the Gestapo in Nazi Germany to turn in a family of Jews hiding in the cellar next door just because that was the law.(the way some people think as the right thing, is not; a lesson from a prostitute of long ago). As I look around me at the ashes of Western civilization, it's not difficult to understand how Ms. Walsh came by her belief that all laws, no matter how immoral, are sacrosanct. 

"Walsh says that '[O'Reilly] just asked the same loaded question over and over seeking the same answer: Do I think there should be any protections for late-term fetuses?' The answer she gave O'Reilly on his show was 'It's heart-wrenching and it gets a lot of attention, but we should note that only 1 percent of all abortions in the U.S. are after 21 weeks'.

"She argues that her 'overriding principle is that [she] believes this very tough choice can only belong to women'. After all, doesn't Natural Law say that a woman owns her own life and therefore has the right to do anything she wishes with that life? Yes, but let's not forget the rest of that: 'so long as she does not forcibly interfere with the life of any other person'. 

"However, by simply declaring that a baby in the womb is not a human being, this ceases to be a moral problem for the social progressive. Without such a declaration, of course, Walsh's 1 percent statistic about late abortions becomes a red herring. After all, a baby who's been in the womb for three months has just as much right to live as one who has made it to seven or eight months. 

"By dehumanizing an unborn child and simply calling him a 'fetus', pro-abortion advocates are able to bypass the whole issue of natural rights, including the fact that even though Natural Law says that an individual has the right of self choice, self choice does not include the right to commit aggression against others. But if an unborn baby is not human, killing him is not aggression. 

"To me, it's axiomatic that all people are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, including the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. If the founding fathers had never said so, it wouldn't have mattered at all. Why? Because for all people of goodwill, individual sovereignty is a self-evident human right.

"So, to those of us who believe in the true meaning of Natural Law, Dr. Tiller did break the law and did so thousands of times. I'm always open to the rational opinions of others, but I admit that I have difficulty entering into a discussion with anyone who begins with the premise that a 'fetus'.(i.e., an unborn baby, not fully developed).is not human."....Robert Ringer, robertringer.com
