Adding to the ongoing competition as to who loves America more and who has the most flags, in the Red states we now have the competition to come up with the most draconian anti-abortion laws with some even ruling out exceptions for rape and incest, with some thinking a woman who has born her child for most of the gestation period but opts for a late term abortion for a reasons only she and her doctor have any reason to discuss, has a cavalier attitude toward the pregnancy and the child/fetus.

A late term abortion would, to me anyway, imply the woman actually wanted the child, but had to make a traumatic decision.

And as far as no exemption for rape or incest, that would mean a 12 year old child would have to carry the result of a rape full term, and, as had been ruled in some courts, share custody of the child with the rapist forever being shackled to him.

By a predominantly male legislature,  Alabama just passed an abortion bill  and has become the benchmark against which future anti-abortion bills will be measured.

The law makes performing an abortion illegal after a “fetal heartbeat” can be detected, something that happens long before women know it is a pregnancy and not a late period, and has no exemptions for rape or incest.

The sponsor of the bill, State Senator Clyde Chambliss, said that because

“When God creates the miracle of life inside a woman’s womb, it is not our place as human beings to extinguish that life”,

it is necessary for government intervention to protect human rights.

To Republican males, rape is not only not all that big or bad a thing, but is also a Nlessing.

Lawrence Lockman, a Maine Republican once opined,

“If a woman has (the right to an abortion), why shouldn’t a man be free to use his superior strength to force himself on a woman? At least the rapist’s pursuit of sexual freedom doesn’t (in most cases) result in anyone’s death.”

Colorado conservative Darryl Glenn believes knows that God’s special gift to women

“If you want an abortion, don’t ask me to pay for it. That’s not something I’m gonna agree with. That’s a gift from God. There are no exceptions with that. But that doesn’t mean I’m not going to pray for you…. That’s a life, regardless of how it got there, and I’m going to pray for you.”

Remember, God is all powerful, so if He let’s a woman get raped, it part of some plan of His.

Conservative religious women also share some bizarre attitudes about rape as Michigan state Republican Senator Kim LaSata believes,

“Of course it should be hard! And the procedure should be painful! And you should allow God to take over!! And you should deliver that baby!”

Republican Representative Todd Akin of  Missouri once explained,

“First of all, from what I understand from doctors [pregnancy from rape] is really rare. If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

And who can forget that when discussing a bill in Texas to ban abortions, Republican Texas House of Representatives member Jodi Laubenberg, who served until January 2019, once compared rape kits to abortion procedures because

“In the emergency room they have what’s called rape kits where a woman can get cleaned out.”

Rape kits are used by medical and law enforcement professionals to collect evidence when a rape is reported.

When Alabama Governor Kay Ivey signed the new abortion bill, House Bill 314, “Human Life Protection Act”, that makes abortion a Class A felony, punishable by up to 99 years in prison for doctors, keeping attempted abortions as a Class C penalty, she stated,

“Today, I signed into law the Alabama Human Life Protection Act. To the bill’s many supporters, this legislation stands as a powerful testament to Alabamians’ deeply held belief that every life is precious & that every life is a sacred gift from God.”

God loves rape, or at least has no problem with it as He apparently employs it to make babies, and also seems to have no problem with incest if you consider where Adam and Eve’s grandchildren came from, or, after He destroyed the world with the flood, the world was repopulated starting with Noah, his wife, his sons, and his sons’ wives.

A contender in the being toughest on abortion is Georgia whose governor, Brian Kemp, signed the state’s “fetal heartbeat” bill that will prohibit abortions after a heartbeat is detected in an embryo, making it the sixth state to pass such a law, and the fourth this year.

Vying for first place is Missouri’s Republican-led Senate that passed a bill to ban abortions at eight weeks of pregnancy not long after Alabama. It, too, has ho exemptions for rape or incest, and has Doctors facing 5 to 15 years in prison for violating the eight-week cutoff.

Missouri’s previous law required women seeking an abortion to wait 72 hours and go to the state’s single abortion clinic.

Of the bill, St. Louis-area Democratic Senator Jill Schupp said,

“So much of this bill is just shaming women into some kind of complacency that says we are vessels of pregnancy rather than understanding that women’s lives all hold different stories.”

and

“It is outrageous that it has no exemptions for victims of human trafficking, rape or incest.”

The Supreme Court has a new ideological makeup now that it has Gorsuch  and Kavanaugh, so anti-abortion activists are hoping challenges to these bills will get before the Court and Roe v Wade will be no more and the legality of abortion will be up to states, not the federal law.

This is not mere speculation since the Alabama bill’s sponsor, representative Terri Collins, said the bill is a “direct attack” on Roe v. Wade if the bill is contested by abortion rights advocates, like the ACLU, it will get to the Supreme Court.

“The heart of this bill is to confront a decision that was made by the courts in 1973 that said the baby in the womb is not a person. This bill addresses that one issue. Is that baby in the womb a person? I believe our law says it is.”

But according to Republican Senator Clyde Chambliss, the Alabama bill is still fair to victims of rape and incest because those women would still be allowed to get an abortion “until she knows she’s  pregnant.”

Yes, it’s people like this that rely more on what they want to believe is God’s will and God’s plan than medicine and science.

Here are some Alabama fun facts that would make you think they have more things to deal with than abortion and controlling a woman’s body, things that Jesus pointed out as being part of the plan, not those things the Alabama legislature claims are when it comes to children’s lives:

• More than a quarter of children live in poverty with 30% being under the age of five.
• Only 33 out of Alabama’s 67 counties have an obstetrician.
• 11% of a family’s income goes to infant care for a single child with the cost for families with two children being 28% more than the average rent.
• Single mothers in Alabama spend 29% of their income on childcare costs.
• Alabama has the second highest infant mortality rate in the country.
• More children are living in poverty in Alabama now than they were 20 years ago, and the state has the fifth highest child poverty rate in the country.
• There are no maternity leave or family leave laws in the state of Alabama.

Somehow these would seem to go along with feeding. clothing, and taking care of “the least of my bretherin”.

But God wants babies no matter how He gets them.
