Scalia Questions ‘Sanity’ of Important Moral Decisions like Abortion Being Decided by ‘Unelected Judges’

ORANGE, California, August 30, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) – US Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia denounced on Monday the use of “unelected judges” to decide morally-charged issues like abortion and same-sex “marriage.”

Speaking after a Chapman University law school re-enactment of a 100-year-old law case, Scalia said, as reported by AP, “I am questioning the propriety - indeed, the sanity - of having a value-laden decision such as this made for the entire society ... by unelected judges.”
