This is in response to Diana Lovejoy’s letter Feb. 6, in which she asked me to read the Constitution and find where a woman has the right to vote or own property. See the 19th Amendment.

Privacy is in the First Amendment and has nothing to do with posterity, and there is no separation of church and state in the Constitution. I quote the First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” Lovejoy said, “The wisest thing they did was leave religion out of the document.” They did not leave religion out. See the First Amendment. I believe that is all there is about religion in the Constitution. And for slavery, see the 13th Amendment.

The killing of the unborn is not what my previous letter was about. It was about the Constitution. If people wish to kill the unborn, they shouldn’t pass laws which oppose the Constitution. Amend it to allow the killing of our posterity.

We are a nation of laws, and we should all abide by them. If a majority does not like what the Constitution says, then it should be amended.

When justices circumvent the law, that is not acting with good behavior. See Article 3.

Just wondering: A man was convicted of two murders, his wife and their unborn child (posterity). If it is murder to kill that unborn child, why is it not murder when a woman chooses an abortion?
