Florida synagogue sues over Florida’s new 15-week abortion ban
Miami Herald ^

Posted on 06/16/2022 5:38:55 AM PDT by aaron_burgle

A South Florida Jewish congregation has challenged a new state law that blocks abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, contending the measure violates privacy and religious-freedom rights.

The lawsuit, filed Friday in Leon County circuit court by Congregation L’Dor Va-Dor, seeks to block the law from taking effect July 1. Abortion clinics also filed a lawsuit this month in Leon County challenging the constitutionality of the restriction.

Both cases include allegations that the law, signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis in April, violates a privacy right in the Florida Constitution that has long played a pivotal role in abortion cases in the state. But the lawsuit filed Friday by the Boynton Beach congregation also contends that the law violates religious-freedom rights.

“For Jews, all life is precious and thus the decision to bring new life into the world is not taken lightly or determined by state fiat,” the lawsuit said. “In Jewish law, abortion is required if necessary to protect the health, mental or physical well-being of the woman, or for many other reasons not permitted under the act [the new law]. As such, the act prohibits Jewish women from practicing their faith free of government intrusion and thus violates their privacy rights and religious freedom.”

Ok, if genetic descent is not important, then why did said poster repeat a known lie about genetic descent?

I certainly didn’t bring the issue up.

I have posted before about the Jews of S Florida. To you and I we are NAZIS and Trump is Hitler. If you are not one of them then you should not live in their communities and should go to re education camps.
I have heard this garbage for years.

I can’t understand how jews can be so tolerant of abortion when they were almost exterminated from Europe during WWII. They oppose the death penalty for murderers, but are suing to murder the unborn.

It’s a shame. But if one points this out he/she is branded as anti Semitic.
I had lunch with an Israeli couple a few weeks ago and they very politely agreed with my assessment.

Religious institutions that engage in politics need to be taxed.

If you want a little extra Bible knowledge on a similar topic, think about the context of Joshua 24:15 when he said "But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” (NIV)

He was referencing other gods the Jews had had a habit of worshipping every now and then. Many of them were about sexual deviancy and child sacrifice. When you think about the Jews living in Egypt and sometimes worshipping Egyptian gods, you probably first think of their chief god Ra (or Re). But the god the Jews had a habit of worshipping was the one they called "She" (I think pronounced "say" with a heavy pant sound). That god was about --- you guessed it --- sexual deviancy and child sacrifice.

It's a repeated them across many centuries and cultures. Different names for the false god, but same results. She. Baal. Moloch. Ashtaroth. Athena. Venus. Tialoc. Sexual freedom. Right to choose.

Reform Judaism isn’t a religion. Its another Democrat constituency.

I don't know. Perhaps he thinks it's important.

There are three groups of people who obsess over "Jewish genetics."

* Jews (especially the ultra-Orthodox)

* Christian Dispensationalists.

* Racial anti-semites.

Anyone who accepts Christ is "neither Jew nor gentile" but a member of the body of Christ.

As for the synagogue in this post, I don't know their genetics and it doesn't matter.

Just as with pro-abortion "Christian" congregations and denominations facing off against anti-abortion "Christian" congregations and denominations, this "Jewish" congregation does not parallel Orthodox Jewish congregations.

Of the Boynton Beach "Jewish: congregation, one reads: "Rabbi Barry practices civil, constitutional and abortion rights, public interest, environmental, and personal injury law. He was named Feminist of the Year by Broward NOW, after winning a landmark case in defense of abortion rights, was honored by the Black Police Officers of America for advocacy of civil rights and has received many other awards. Rabbi Barry served from 1996 to 1998 in the Florida House of Representatives where he was named 'Most Effecctive Environmental Legislator' by the Sierra Club and 'Consumer Champion' by Florida's largest consumer group. Since 1990, he has been included in Who's Who of American Law for significant contributions to the betterment of society."

I type quotes around the terms "Christian" and "Jewish" because neither term can mean simultaneously diametrically opposed principles as regards "life," another term now needing quotations around it, as does "woman" in the current Politicization of EVERYTHING.

Once words mean two diametrically opposed definitions, then language itself fails.

Satan has religious freedom as part of his orthodoxy too.

Satan’s kind of freedom includes high holy months like Pride and abortion..
The culture of death and its counterfeit religious freedom loses in the end..

A fake rabbi going against the Jewish halacha forbidding abortions, with the life of the mother the rare exception!
