[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In some face, it is your religious belief to follow medical advice such as in Orthodox Judaism. There are cases where due to medical reasons a woman is advised to get an abortion and that is sanctioned by her religion. So I could see some cases being brought before the court having to do with freedom of religion in that respect[/quote]

Freedom of religion will not trump the right to life. [/quote]
Also, religion-neutral laws that apply to everyone equally can't typically be challenged on First Amendment grounds. Your religion may believe in animal sacrifice, for example, but government can ban the killing of animals outside of a licensed slaughterhouse. [/quote]

Yeah that’s is not true. If it was a religious practice the government would have a hard time.  [/quote]
So, if your religion believes in human sacrifice, the murder laws don't apply to its practitioners? If you believe in ritualized prostitution, the vice squad can't shut down your brothel?

The 1st Amendment forbids government from discriminating against people based on religion. It in no way requires government to let you use your religion to opt out of neutrally applied non-discriminatory laws. [/quote]
