"Abortion Is a Religious Freedom" [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 19 Feb 2023 | John Semmens

Montana State Rep. Ed Stafman (D-Bozeman) has proposed an amendment to a state law that prevents pro-life doctors and nurses from being forced to participate in performing abortions. His amendment would add a pro-abortion exception allowing for unborn babies to be aborted if the woman's sincerely held religious beliefs require it.

Stafman explained that "if a doctor or nurse is allowed to refuse to abort an unwanted child as a matter of conscience, shouldn't a devout pro-abortion believer have the right to refuse to give birth as a matter of conscience? The Satanic Temple asserts that abortion is a sacred ritual. Shouldn't our laws also provide protection for this belief?"

In Massachusetts, Framingham Democratic Committee Chair Michael Hugo claims that "aborting unborn babies is a fundamental right." He also cited a practical consideration, saying that "aborting babies with disabilities will lessen the burdens on public school budgets. It would be more fiscally prudent to cull defective humans from our population. It would also be more merciful to spare a downsyndrome child from suffering through an unworthy existence."

In response to criticism of his "heartless" suggestion, Hugo cited Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger's advice that "the poor and people with disabilities are unfit. Such human weeds clog up the path, drain up the energies and the resources of this little Earth. We must clear the way for a better world; we must cultivate our garden."

“Satanism is a religion, too!”

Note that this happened under the “historic” administration of the SECOND ROMAN CATHOLIC PRESIDENT!!! (Notorious philanderer JFK was the first.)

I’ve seen like maybe two RC priests on twatter upbraid ChoMoeJoe about his claiming to be a “devout” catholic. Nobody ever says d1ck to HagNancy.

They want to yell at you about not being tolerant enough of gaywads and trannies. (And they want to KILL me for writing a stupid book that nobody made them read.)

“His amendment would add a pro-abortion exception allowing for unborn babies to be aborted if the woman’s sincerely held religious beliefs require it.”
************************************************

What sincerely held religious beliefs would ever REQUIRE abortion? According to Wikipedia this guy is an ordained rabbi, is he suggesting Judaism requires that abortion stay legal?
