Taking away a person's bodily autonomy is next to slavery. Forced birth turns women back into chattle.

The ONLY argument the Supremely Religiously Court can make against abortion is a Christian religious one. My family is Not Christian but we are forced to give up our rights because of an imaginary sky Daddy we don't even think exists.

The Christians seem to imagine their sky Daddy in the clouds would object to women making decisions about their own pregnancies. What a very Taliban like thing to force onto non believers. What next? Are they going to start witch burning? Outlaw female education? Force polygamy on our daughters?
