SCOTUS Getting Shade Over Roe v Wade

...
A hierocratic would be the correct word there? And no, most conservatives believe that the government and church should be separate polities.
Um, the idea of Caesaropopism is that the government has primacy in affairs above the church.
Popecaesarism is the opposite, with the church bossing around secular institutions.
 
No, it is 100% dependent on the host organism and mindless.

It is not autonomous life, let alone autonomous intelligent life.

The definition you used said 'capable of Darwinian evolution.'

Darwinian evolution requires reproduction.

Humans reproduce through fetuses.

Thus, this is part of the life-cycle, and must be alive in order to count.


Your own given definition defeats your own argument.

So...America.
From skimming the article, if activities are pushed from "this is considered church business" to "this is considered state business", that alone isn't caesaropapism. It's when the state tells the church how to do what is still considered to be church business. (e.g. "You must allow women to become priests" or an executive order published as a papal bull.) A takeover of the church by the state. Whereas a takeover of the state by the church would be theocracy in the popular vernacular, or hierocracy according to Weber, or papocaesarism according to Agent23.

The church can as it pleases as long as it does not interfere in secular affairs.
If Yahweh is so powerful then he and his servants do not need my tax money, or tax exemptions.

And by your own logic only teen and above should be considered alive because otherwise they can not reproduce.

Which part of autonomous, unaided survival out of the womb don't you understand?

So, you're fine with 'aborting' children up to the age of at least three or four years old?

Also, you've made it rather obvious that you have little to no functional ability to understand the logic of others. You certainly don't understand mine.

No, I'd we need to stick to the most strict definition of life, as you desire, pre-teens are not alive. :ROFLMAO:

Seriously, do I need to post a bait image or put (sarcasm) under my every post?
 
To help those suspect of why this decision could be so important:

We’re so used to losing, who knows what the biggest win in generations could do to energize the American majority that remains committed to families and the rule of the real Constitution, not the murderous “living” one. But I do know that nothing is so energizing and refreshing as a baby. There’s nothing more unifying, more animating, and more lively. A baby is a life, and a baby makes a life. This is true both for us as individuals and for us as a collective.

Children are a reason to get up in the morning, to make a morning at all. Discharging our responsibilities to children is the way to make it “Morning in America” again, both in our homes and in our civic life. Caring for them is the best way forward. It is the only way.

Without children, a civilization dies, both spiritually and literally. We are on the cusp of continuing to lose our babies, but there’s a chance we can get them back. And we need to, for our nation’s life is inextricable from theirs.

As every good parent learns, having a child is the way to become human again. Being human means becoming the kind of person who will sacrifice himself to benefit another. A society without enough of such persons is soon not a society at all. The Supreme Court’s decision, therefore, can either mean life or death not only for the unborn, but also for their nation. We must all hope, pray, and prepare.
