I do believe in living according to Christ’s teachings but I do not think the religious beliefs of a minority (or anyone) belong in legislature. The founders of our country left Europe because of religious persecution. The US was founded on religious freedom. I DO NOT want to live the way those evangelicals want me to live.

I was a single mom. To see us move backwards like this is actually terrifying. Every human deserves the exact same rights. I don't care what color they are, religion, orientation or anything.

    I can hold two thoughts in my head at the same time. Being a born again Christian I think abortion is wrong, being born in America the land of the free I cannot tell a woman what to do with her body. The fact that I am a Christian cannot override the wishes of 70% of our country a free country a country of Rights I cannot limit people's rights based on my religion that's un-american. I've always pride myself on not being a Democrat or a Republican being able to pick and choose whom I think is the right person to govern us, but today I cannot trust Republicans to govern us in the manner a free society should be governed. Therefore in this current climate I urge all people who love their freedoms to vote for Democrats at least during this current climate.

      @@onyxd6270 then please explain what you mean. What does “Main Street” (location) have to do with anything?
      And the Supreme Court members aren’t humiliating and frightening vulnerable women as they enter abortion clinics. They are going right for the jugular: after purposely lying On Video by assuring they would never go against RvW so as to get themselves appointed, they now have absolutely no shame in reversing their promise. If the judges of the highest court on the land are dishonest in plain sight, how can we trust them to decide the fate of our fellow humans?
      And back to my original question: what do you mean when you say you can go “appeal for the child.”? Which, by the way is only an embryo or at most a fetus. Not called a “child” by dictionary definition until After birth.
      I will add that, if RvW gets reversed and “life” is now legally stated to begin at conception, then every unborn “child” by this definition, must be entitled to all the protections and funding provided by city state and federal laws. That means everything from tax deductions and tax credits to collecting child support if mother fits the financial parameters; and that definitely means child support from the father. That means laws must be put in place to have mandatory dna tests for proven probable father, and then child support should be retroactive to date of conception.
