Listening to SC hearing regarding Mifepristone

[MOMFUDSKI]

being available to women. It really offends me that they are deciding what I want to do with my own body. WTF kinda country am I living in? Christian men must lose their power.

[Bluepinky]

1. More like faux Christians. They don't follow the teachings of Jesus.

Their God is money and power.

[Blue Idaho]

11. There are no real Christians left

At least not in America. Not since the evangelicals swarmed into power.

[maxsolomon]

18. There are.

They are very quiet. Practicing Quietude.

Look to the Unitarians, maybe the Episcopalians for sane Christianity.

[Blue Idaho]

19. Thanks!

You make a good point.

[Martin Eden]

15. I'm no expert on the Bible or New Testament, but did Jesus actually condemn abortion?

As I recall he was more about Love thy neighbor, help the poor & sick, and welcome the stranger.

None of those virtues come to mind when examining the words & deeds of holier-than-thou Republicans.

[JohnSJ]

2. It is outrageous, and all these chisto-faschist right wing judges

are basing their arguments entirely on hypotheticals, not actual results,

If any of these draconian judges gets a condition that requires an extraordinary medicine, they deserve to be denied access to that drug.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

7. Right? It's infuriating.

What if a woman comes in with mifepristone complications? A bible thumper doctor will have to complete the abortion!

Ok sure. What if a pregnant woman is in a car accident and requires abortion to save her life? Are we going to ban cars to avoid this hypothetical?

3. This court is packed with catholics......

6 of the 9 justices are catholic. Although the liberal catholic didn't vote to kill roe.

[SharonAnn]

9. 5 are R-W Opus Dei sect Catholics. And Gorsuch, raised Catholic, usually votes with them.

Opus Dei is a sect that desires to take power around the world. Usually led by very wealthy and/or very politically connected men. What I would call a Christo-fascist organization that seeks power (and money) under the guise of religion.

20. Leonard

Leo is an opus dei follower.

[rubbersole]

4. If they use this case to further restrict choice...

...there will be a 13 member SC next January. Make it the cornerstone of the Democratic platform. Have these tone-deaf idiots never pissed off a woman? "Hell hath no fury..."

[SalviaBlue]

5. My thoughts exactly.

This enrages me. I had to stop listening. I can feel my blood pressure rising.

[Ping Tung]

6. "Pro-life" isn't about babies. It's about punishing women who enjoy sex.

"Nothing about contraception should be taught in schools. There is no question that it will encourage sexual activity." (Phyllis Schlafly, New York Times, 10/17/92)

[tavernier]

8. These justices need to answer this question:

Do you think your seats should be relinquished to physicians and medical professionals? If not, why do you believe that you have the right to take their jobs? And where in the constitution does it give you that right?

Answer is mandatory.

[cactusfractal]

13. Better question:

The rope or the chair?

[Nutty Putty]

10. Tax the church n/t

12. As well as all their nefarious little hobby foundations, too.

Religious freedom shouldn't be a subject ever discussed in its regard to basic human rights. Religion is not a basic human right. It is a fraud imposed by a wealthy-sinner-dependent priesthood (preacher-hood for all you heathen protestants and Buddhist shaman worshipers) to sustain their power and prestige over the centuries to oppress science. Though, when they need to pretend a belief in democracy, they'll rub elbows with anybody holding a few hundred million dollars or a seat on the USSC. It is the human right of every citizen of a free nation to reject and ignore religion at any or for all time. It is the duty of citizens to drive religion pushers from the halls of government and justice.

14. Women will continue to abort unwanted pregnancy

The only abortions these religiously insane patriarchs will stop are the safe ones, especially the ones done because a pregnancy has turned life threatening.

To patriarchs, we're not human. We're a bunch of animated flowerpots, perpetually owned by them as slave children, to be bred according to their will, not ours.

That makes me deeply angry, an ice cold fury.

16. Whose body is it?

Does it belong to the politicians? Seriously, what century is this?

[bdamomma]

21. They

are women haters. Also I heard on an interview between 2 well known women who said this is sort of "payback" to women. They do not like strong independent women. Just wait, there will be blow back.

[dlk]

22. We're still facing backlash from the women's movement over half a century ago

Sadly, there’s never a shortage of misogynists and women-haters

[bdamomma]

23. Hmmm........

This makes my blood boil. If they keep pushing...we WILL push back!!!!!

[Turbineguy]

17. Hawley is trying to get SCOTUS

to rule in favor of the greater harm.
