It's time to form The Church of the Sacred Uterus.

I assume our holy rites will be protected and our places of worship inviolable. And those prayers on sports fields will be lit!

I’m only half kidding.

But none of them are unsurmountable, if you want to be serious. Frankly there are quite a few old time religions that are female oriented. If someone could dust off the books and research it, this idea could get traction.

Just become a Wiccan.

The Pagan religions have always been strongly pro-choice.

My freedom of religion just happens to make choice a holy tenet!
