"In accordance with the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), first trimester abortions are now exempt from unnecessary regulations for all individuals practicing The Satanic Temple's religious abortion ritual." I bet they get some converts. https://announcement.thesatanictemple.com/rrr-campaign41280784
According to them. I also found this on their website, does this mean they are exempt from mask requirements? Tenet III. One's body is inviolable, subject to one's own will alone.
Oh, now you're interested in converting. Maybe they will perform the abortion "ritual" in the Temple (at a much reduced price). I think the religion is more tongue in cheek than serious.
Not in the slightest, just pointing out a mandate would obviously conflict with their "rights". If you break laws they will also tote your inviolable body, off to jail.
interesting way to get around any stupid republican laws... religious freedom is a constitutional right
Republicans like those when mom is poor and can't afford the hospital bills "Bush Criticized for End-of-Life Laws" https://web.archive.org/web/20051219170102/http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,151448,00.html "But on March 15, a Texas law signed by then-Gov. George W. Bush (search) in 1999 allowed the hospital to go ahead and take Sun off the respirator in defiance of Wanda Hudson's wishes."
"For Surgical Abortions: Prior to receiving any anesthetic or sedation, look at your reflection to be reminded of your personhood and your responsibility to yourself. Focus on your intent. Take deep breaths, and make yourself comfortable. When you are ready, say the Third Tenet and Fifth Tenet aloud. You may now undergo the surgery. After the surgery is completed and any anesthetic has worn off, return to your reflection and recite your personal affirmation. Feel doubts dissipating and your confidence growing as you have just undertaken a decision that affirms your autonomy and free will. The religious abortion ritual is now complete." wtf...
if the anti-choicers wants to play stupid games, the pro-choicers can play too if they want to make dumb laws, then ways will be found around them
I don't see how requiring the pregnant woman to view the ultrasound screen would interfere with the Satanic group's religious beliefs. If anything, one would think that they'd probably want to see, during their human sacrifice ceremony.
