Opinion | How the Christian Right is violating the First Amendment by banning abortion

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

64% : But that's precisely why religious freedom is so important.
54% : And imposing Christian morality and Christian dogma on non-Christians is a good working definition of religious tyranny -- which the First Amendment of the Constitution explicitly rejects.
39% : That principle of religious freedom is the basis of a lawsuit brought by Congregation L'Dor Va-Dor, a synagogue in Boynton Beach, Florida, against a sweeping state abortion ban set to take effect on July 1.
38% : The point isn't that the Florida law violates the Jewish teaching on abortion.
36% : A leaked Supreme Court draft opinion suggests the high court is set to overturn Roe v. Wade, effectively gutting the constitutional right to abortion.
35% : Rather, the point is that abortion is an issue on which there is and has been strong theological disagreement and discussion between and among different faiths.
34% :Jewish thinking around abortion is complicated and can vary among individual teachers and congregations (much as with Christian teachings around abortion).
