When
Roe was decided, a liberal law professor stated that it is “bad constitutional law, or rather because it is not constitutional law and gives almost no sense of an obligation to try to be.”
Hardly anyone defend’s Roe’s original reasoning anymore, because it makes no sense. That’s why over the decades the defense of Roe has largely been reduced to the assertion that it’s precedent. It’s the left’s Lochner.
Invoking “experts” is unavailing because those experts are not speaking within the scope of their expertise. Their assertions are in the realm of moral philosophy, not law. It’s a religious edict within the church of secular humanism.
