Religious rules should not interfere in the decision making and action. It is surprising that an advanced country like Ireland is making such a Gross mistake.Love SMShttp://hindisms.org/sms/hindi-love-smsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-989890166047940960.post-44736265741782393502012-11-16T06:17:12.673+00:002012-11-16T06:17:12.673+00:00I'm afraid I don't think your analysis is ...I'm afraid I don't think your analysis is the correct one. Pro life/pro choice are all much of a muchness since the matter is subject to the Constitution. Remember the Constitution 'cannot' remove Rights. It is a Document that recognizes, I suppose in a sense a bit like a photo. It of itself is just a bit of paper. Therefore, NOTHING can remove from the unborn child the Rights intrinsic to the Sovereign Citizen. That the administration would like to do many things, mostly surrounding the making of you and me subject as we would stand before the common law, nonetheless there is nothing we by vote or they by Act can do since we are the State. We, in our individual person and we, as the collective. <br />What neither side to the question understand is that the legislature at this point can only remove the Westminster Act which has the potential to criminalise the medic should the DPP proceed. Or, a citizen can demand it be struck out by standing before the Supreme Court. You see what people forget is that the status quo anti ruling by the 1940s court which made all laws constitutional unless they weren't. To put that another way, in the 1990s the court didn't strike out the 1860s Act because they weren't asked. They did give warning, only the framers chose to ignore it, that the 1860s Act was now in it's entirety unconstitutional. <br />At this moment what we've got is mud, and why, well because it suits many to have it that way. The administration can persist expecting you to submit even though YOU are the sovereign. The Pro people can pretend they care about babies or women, depending. And the professions can live happily in a murky environment.<br />But at the end of the day nothing can change the Citizenship of the child. It is as deserving of the protection of the collective as any priest judge student unemployed or prisoner. <br />As to an answer, that new bit we put in the other day might provide one. There would be nothing preventing the child having an advocate when circumstances might require it.
