[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep reading about how abortion is central to Judaism. It’s clear to me that the founders always believed in a clear separation between synagogue and state.

I’m not sure why Jews think that exposing abortion as a Jewish thing is a good idea, but clearly Jewish religious dogma has no place in our laws or government. [/quote]

It isn't that "abortion is central to judaism" but rather some religions consider life to start at birth, not conception, so when Evangelicals try to foist their religious beliefs on the rest of us, that is a violation of the First Amendment. It's too bad the SCOTUS is tainted, otherwise they would have realized it. Or, perhaps this is the game:

But let's not say that abortion is central to any religion, because it isn't and your language undermines and delegitimizes the broader point.[/quote]

I’m responding to all this sudden push by Jews to say that the ability to abort an unborn child is fundamental to Judaism. They’re saying it - not me. But then they are trying to say that because abortion access is a fundamental Jewish value, the People cannot (via the democratic process) restrict or outlaw it. That’s Jews trying to force their religious beliefs on the rest of the country.[/quote]

Give the anti semetic onslaught a rest.

Birth away as often as you like but don't force your anti choice views on everyone else.[/quote]

These Roe threads are replete with people blaming and trash talking Christians. Funny how pointing out the very troubling Jewish religious insistence on abortion is “antisemitic.” [/quote]

The only trashing of Christians is that they have packed the courts and our institutions and are forcing their dogma on the rest of us. They are free to practice their religion as they see fit. They are not free to force their religion on the rest of us.
