The state of Alabama has just enacted a very strict anti-abortion law which, I imagine, is driven primarily by religious conservatives of an evangelical bent.
Now Alabama also has a law that states:
SECTION III. The purpose of the Alabama Religious Freedom Amendment is to guarantee that the freedom of religion is not burdened by state and local law; and to provide a claim or defense to persons whose religious freedom is burdened by government.
Not all religions proscribe abortion. How will that circle be squared, I wonder?
