Totally agree with your second paragraph. Opting out shouldn’t be an option if you’re an O B G Y N. What in the absolute fuck?

I went to a public school that offered a Bible as Literature course (that I took) too! I am also incredibly baffled when people think only practicing Christians have any idea what’s in the Bible. I’m also baffled by how so many interpret the Bible from such a legalistic, hateful position, and how it escapes them that…

Reminds me of this political cartoon:

Whoa, whoa, there, Lenin! Slow down! Those are some very far out ideas you’re proposing!

I am sometimes baffled by those who think that anyone not currently involved in religion has no concept of what’s in the Bible or Christian principles.

Also, mandate free health care for pregnant women. Or (even crazier), for children.

Trans men can get pregnant and have abortions too. The benefit of stopping calling this “women’s issues” is not just that everyone should care about it, but that it’s also inclusive of trans people.

This argument boggles my mind when it comes up in health care too. “Why should men have to pay for maternity coverage?”

The most shocking thing to me is that they actually held a public hearing.

I’m a former Christian/church worker and attended a Lutheran (LCMS) parochial school as a kid. I think of Matthew 23 constantly whenever the GOP tries to pull shit like this - I still find the imagery and the language of it beautifully apt.

The logical next step; all women must be encased entirely in amber.

This is the GOP future for pregnant women. I’m not kidding. Where they have total control of the reproduction of humans.

Sadly, probably. Also Next step: banning all med students at any institution who are on federal student loans from being allowed to receive abortion training.

I’m wondering what the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine thinks about this. The risk of losing accreditation for that program is real if they provide no educational alternatives, and I’ll bet Andre doesn’t care at all about the logistics or cost of implementing that.

Oh, this was definitely a calculated move to get under 45's skin by going after Daughter-Wife.

That’s great, but can we keep our eyes on Jared, please? Or Don, Jr.? Then again, maybe putting some pressure on The Only Child Trump Really Cares About will make him nervous and cause him to do stupid (and actionable) stuff.
