One of the major groups opposing the Personhood Amendement was the Medical Association, but we know that there are hundreds of pro-life doctors in Mississippiand thousands of Mississippians who would prefer to be treated by doctors who will uphold the original Hippocratic Oath and treat all human beings as created in the image of God.
As we move forward with our lobbying, education, and ministry efforts -- the "next phase" of the personhood effort in Missssippi, we are looking to find doctors and nurses who will help behind the scenes and who will stand for life publicly.

Supreme Court Says Personhood Is The Way To Go!
*(originally posted by Personhood USA)

Personhood was widely discussed at the Supreme Court oral arguments for Roe v. Wade.

Note that among other things, the judges state that:
"The basic constitutional question, initially is, whether or not the unborn fetus is a person. That's critical to this case is it not?"
"Could Texas, constitutionally in your view, declare, by statute, that a fetus is a person for all constitutional purposes?"(Chief Justice Burger)
"The state could OBVIOUSLY adopt that kind of statute, and then it would have to be adjudicated." (Pro-abort Attorney, Sarah Weddington)
