Jewish Opposition to Anti-Abortion Laws?

I started a discussion on this almost exactly two years ago!

Many similar arguments as we’re seeing, how the “judeo” in Judeo-Christian arguments are almost always more of a cultural appropriation or unwilling assimilation attempt. One thing I brought up there, that hasn’t been mentioned here yet was a niggle in the Indiana lawsuit:

Specifically, that the state had enacted in 2015 Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act, where they specified business and government couldn’t put a burden on the the person’s religious belief unless against compelling governmental interest. IE, it was a law passed so that various religiously affiliated businesses (Hobby Lobby and ilk) shouldn’t be forced to comply with all and sundry protections against their feelings.

Now, yes, fully as mentioned in both threads, this is the sort of thing where what they MEAN is that of course Christians of certain carefully vetted and approved sects should have freedom and screw the others, or that of course they [ read Christian conservative white men in general ] are the ones that can dictate what morals are worthy of being enforced by “compelling governmental interest” - but no one at this point is going to be surprised by the hypocrisy.
