Why else would they require just/at least “one dollar” of every person’s insurance premium in 0bamacare to go to abortion services?

That’s exactly where their argument falls apart. If it is not ok to impose Christian beliefs on others, why is it ok to impose other beliefs on Christians? Here’s a crazy idea...How about the government stay neutral on personal issues and let the individual decide for themselves what he believes is right?

As I heard someone say a while back,
it would be fair if we use the “cut and choose” method of government.

If the left gets to “cut”, ie, say who has the power,
then we get to choose who we want to be.

If they choose government to have the power, I choose to be the government. If they choose the individual, I choose to be the individual.

You can believe what you want. The purpose of laws in a civilized society is to restrain harmful acts, especially those that injure others. Where the pro-abortion argument fails most crucially is on two points. First, it ignores the scientific truth that a unique, individuated human life begins at conception. Second, it ignores a founding principle of this Republic, which is that we are created equal, endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights, including, among others, the right to life. As they address those issues (the reality of human life at conception based on scientific evidence and the concept that you have unalienable rights), laws protecting the life of the unborn are imminently defensible, religious arguments or not.
