Higdon's anti-religion bias is palpable.

This guy is just another atheist bigot who is incensed that the Catholic Church - and most Protestant evangelical churches - dare oppose one of the leftist's bedrock principles: the alleged 'right' to the taking of helpless, innocent human life in the womb, which diminishes life and opens to door to all sorts of mischief, as we well know, 35 years post-Roe.

I'm not a Muslim, but to my knowledge, although there is no direct approval of abortion in Islamic teaching, there is no absolute ban on it, either This leaves the issue theologically cloudy and somewhat 'situational', except that the harming of a fully-formed 'fetus' would likely be condemned by Islamic law.

Perhaps an Islamic scholar could clarify the issue, but again, there are ambiguities in Islamic law regarding abortion. Generally, just like many Americans, I would surmise that most Muslims would be against it, except in 'special' situations, especially if the 'situation' involved themselves - or a close family member.

Higdon’s mother should have had an abortion.

Heres an idea for that goofball...if you not believe in the teachings of a religion, then dont follow that religion.
This guy uses writing as a form of masterbation.
