Was Griswold used as precedent in Roe v. Wade?

Content: I’ve forgotten much of my physiology classes. I hope that people will see from my lengthy post that the issue here has to a determination of when individual rights attach. That has to be the issue if we are to make laws that are consistent with the very basis of our legal system. 1.5K views

Why do you think that abortion remains a contentious topic more than 40 years after the Roe vs. Wade decision? Whose interests are states protecting by restricting access to abortion? It’s a contentious topic for numerous reasons
Roe took away the democratic process against prolifers, so prolifers get angry about not even really being able to do much
Roe actually put in more liberal of abortion laws than much of Europe has, which may further incense at least some members of the prolife movement
The fact that over 40 years has passed does not mean that the same arguments aren’t able to be floated around the whole time, or that all prolifers will just let it go. That can on the contrary make prolifers feel it has wiped out whole generations, providing new rallying points of a sort
There is the phrase “I survived Roe, but Roe won’t survive me” that some prolifers on the younger side (ie born, or should I say conceived?, after Roe) say in exact reference to this
The prolife point of view logically has to imply caring a whole hell of a lot in a way hard to let go. You think prochoicers can be mad about feeling “prolifers want to take away women’s rights”? I’m pretty sure that is at least matched if not exceeded by feeling people are killing hundreds of thousands of babies around you as prolifers would feel (as yes, that is how many abortions occur in the US each year)
If anything, embryology usually tends to actually vindicate prolifers more than prochoicers in the sense that usually, in my experience, there is more development than prochoicers assume at a given gestational age, thus putting a bit of a lie to “just a clump of cells” as in like the cells I have worked with in cell culture dishes as a BME major
Yes, I am aware it is a philosophical debate at its core and science doesn’t “prove” either side.
