If we are going to use Christian theology as the primary source for deciding United States law, then at least be consistent. The moral guidelines in the Christian faith are the Ten Commandments. If the practice of abortion is outlawed because of the seventh commandment (thou shalt not kill), then we should also enact statutes that codify the eighth commandment (thou shalt not commit adultery).
If women and girls are forced to carry every fertilized egg to term then every man or boy who provides the sperm that fertilized that egg should be forced to immediately marry and support; with exceptions for rape and incest (ya'll cool with that, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, Ohio, South Dakota, Tennessee, and Texas?) the fertilized egg with healthcare, food, shelter, education, clothing, etc. for the next 75 trimesters (remember, life begins when you enter your password for Netflix and chill) for the child and eternity with your betrothed.
If women and girls are forced to commit for life to a fertilized egg, so should the sperm donors. If we are going to use the bible as our guideline for law and become a fascist theocracy, at least be consistent.
Next up on the docket; Supreme Court authorization for states to stone to death those who don't remember the Sabbath and keep it holy and those who worship graven images like, I don't know, red inscribed hats and whatever the fuck this is...
