    If it’s sacrifice then it’s part of a religion and therefore constitutionally protected. Checkmate dipshits

      According to the satanic temple, it’s a religious ritual and constitutionally protected for that very reason. So thank you to these christofascists for, in their own myopic and ludicrously incorrect way, giving that argument some weight, I guess.

        Bans are also contrary to Jewish doctrine, which states that abortion is permitted up to forty days after pregnancy (and presumably refers to actual pregnancy and not the currently used definition which calculates a pregnancy based on menstruation, thus artificially increasing the length of the “pregnancy” in most cases). After this point, if a mother’s life is in danger due to pregnancy, an abortion should be performed. Not can be; should be. The mother’s life is seen as being more valuable and aborting to save her is a mitzvah.
