If you are questioning if Cassie Hutchison's credibility should be questioned, consider Tony Ornato's loyalties:
Trump photo op at St. John's Church:
"Secret Service official Anthony Ornato, who had received the unprecedented permission to temporarily take a leave of absence to become a White House political advisor, had reportedly organized the photo-op."

Spirituality cannot be used as the sole basis for a moral position. It can only inform it.
Morality informs the Law.
Yet, in a democracy, Spirituality cannot be allowed to inform the Law directly.

If your position is that a recently fertilized egg has an actual "soul" and is "alive", all further arguments are disregarded. This requires a religious belief system.
If your position is that a recently fertilized egg requires the support of a functional womb for a number of months before it can live on its own, and that there is no such thing as a "soul", then there is neither a "life" to be considered nor a spiritually relevant thing involved.
Most people can see through a disingenuous person's argument.
But, many are also swayed by that person's rhetoric.
The author lacks integrity if the Means of the argument require ignoring the intent of the Ends. In this case, arguing that the Constitutional support of Roe v Wade is baseless (the Means) so that you can ensure the "life" and "soul" is protected (the Ends).
Ho - Lee - F*#%!
Alito's assertions were undercut by a concurrence by Thomas, who explicitly called for the court to reconsider its rulings striking down state restrictions on contraceptives, state sodomy bans and state prohibitions on same-sex marriage.
Because any substantive due process decision is demonstrably erroneous, Thomas wrote, we have a duty to correct the error established in those precedents.
