"You would have it that birth, in the last analysis, is the State's to give."

You couldn't be more mistaken.  The State must protect life from wrongful taking, but it certainly isn't the State's place to GIVE life.  Where on EARTH did you get that notion?  Go back to the fundamentals expressed by the Framers:  It is "self-evident" that "all men are . . . endowed by their CREATOR with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are LIFE, . . . ."  Endowed by their CREATOR, not by the State.  And UNALIENABLE, not to be forfeited in the womb by an innocent.  

It's slavery and cruelty to protect life in the womb?  Is that view typical of women now?  I don't believe so, and sincerely hope it isn't.  Because if it is, it's the most ghastly indictment of "most" women that I've ever heard.
