Infant deaths surged 12.9% in Texas compared with 1.8% for the rest of the country after the state in 2021 enacted a strict abortion ban with no exceptions for birth defects, according to a new study in JAMA Pediatrics.
Infant deaths attributed to congenital anomalies, or birth defects, rose 22.9% in Texas compared with a decrease of 3.1% for the rest of the country.
Preliminary infant mortality data obtained by CNN last year suggested the restrictions were fueling a spike in deaths as more women were forced to carry nonviable pregnancies to term.

Even Jebus said, "Suffer the little children."

Michaelah Montgomery, Trump’s “random” Chick-fil-A customer and MAGA operative, says Black women don’t need to be concerned about surviving pregnancy because their ancestors gave birth on slave ships
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Quote:The Kansas Supreme Court on Friday issued opinions overturning two laws limiting access to abortion, with the court finding again that the state constitution protects the right to personal autonomy, which includes a woman’s decisions about her own health, body and family planning.
One of the cases, filed in 2015, had previously been ruled on by the higher court. The law in question effectively banned the most common form of second-trimester abortion, dilation and evacuation, except for when necessary to save the life of the mother.
The Kansas Supreme Court ruled in 2019 that the state constitution protects personal autonomy, including when it comes to the decision of whether to continue a pregnancy, and that any government infringement on this right must be able to “withstand strict scrutiny.”
The case was sent down to a district court, which found there was “no reasonable alternative” to dilation and evacuation and that the Kansas state government failed to prove the law was constitutional, permanently blocking it from being enforced. The state Supreme Court upheld that decision this week.
“The State devoted much of its brief to inviting us to reverse our earlier ruling in this case that the Kansas Constitution protects a right to abortion. We decline the invitation,” Justice Eric S. Rosen wrote in the opinion.
Deciding on another lawsuit, first filed in 2011, the Kansas Supreme Court also affirmed a lower court’s ruling that found licensing requirements for abortion providers infringed on women’s right to bodily autonomy and do not survive strict scrutiny.

You are giving them too much credit. I am not sure they are up for learning, or even capable of it.
