Morality and Regulation

Regarding Ricks' most recent post responding to Eduardo, I think I draw a distinction that Rick does not draw between not outlawing abortion and funding and constitutionalizing it.  I agree with Rick that, notwithstanding the limits of legal moralism, we should be troubled by government action that has the effect of promoting abortion, such as funding.  But I'm not convinced failing to outlaw abortion is choosing injustice over justice.  I explore some of these issues in John Courtney Murray and the Abortion Debate, which appears in the Villanova Journal of Catholic Social Thought and is posted here as well.
