Protecting unborn babies in the womb is a violation of religious freedom, according to an Indiana judge with an axe to grind against pro-life policy and people of faith.
Recently, Judge Christina R Klineman ruled that Indiana’s pro-life law violates the state Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA). This decision delivered a win to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which in 2022 sued over Indiana’s pro-life law on behalf of several unidentified women and ‘Hoosier Jews for Choice’.
The ACLU’s lawsuit claimed that Paganism, Judaism and other religious groups mandate abortion access. After nearly four years of litigation, Judge Klineman’s recent decision agreed that the state pro-life law violated their religious freedom and that it was inconsistent for the law to exclude ‘religious exceptions’ when it allows exceptions for cases of rape, incest or to save the life of a mother.
