  1. If I had to take I guess, I would say it will be a 5-4 split decision to uphold Roe (or keep most of it intact), even with a strong conservative majority. John Roberts almost always votes on the side of precedent, and I think it's likely Neil Gorsuch will join him. If they don't, frankly I find it ridiculous that 3 unelected bureaucrats can overrule the preferences of three-quarters of the American population based on little more than superstition. Any sane person would call that a theocracy. If there's a good secular argument for outlawing abortion before roughly 15-18 weeks (when the fetus has a nervous system developed to feel pain), I haven't heard it (and neither has my favorite living philosopher, Peter Singer). It also doesn't help that all three of the appointments of the new conservative justices were controversial (the Republican Senate blocked Obama's nomination of Merrick Garland for almost a year and then approved Gorsuch, Kavanaugh was accused of s-xual assualt, and Barrett was nominated one month before an election, directly contradicting what Republicans like Lindsey Graham were promising back in 2016). If they overturn Roe, there will be unrest we have never seen since the election of Donald Trump --- but even worse. Most Americans see this folly for what it is, and (rightly) reject the intrusion of theology and religious dogma into the very personal decisions of women about their own anatomy.
