Subscribe to the podcast! iTunes | GooglePlay

Religious liberty attorney Eric Kniffin returns to Bioethics on Air to break down US Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito’s majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health, the case that reversed Roe v. Wade. Kniffin addresses originalism, how Roe was “egregiously wrong,” and why stare decisis did not apply in Dobbs.

Note: Although not discussed, the podcast references the due process clause of the 14th Amendment which reads, “… nor shall any State deprive a person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of the law.”
