Abortion. Complicated? Or not?

The U.S. Supreme Court throwing out the precedent-setting Roe v. Wade ruling obviously draws strong feelings on both sides of the issue. Some say is a complicated issue.

Many of us grew up believing that the Court would never take away a right it had in the past “given” to the American people, or ruled constitutional. And, if abortion has a moral aspect to it, I always viewed that as a religious aspect, and the Constitution grants us freedom of religion. Or to believe in nothing if you choose.
