RF Rules & Illegal Abortions

A good idea would be to make referendums in those states. Kentucky, Tennessee, etc...
"Do you want an abortion ban? " "Yes or no?". The majority wins.
There, easy as pie.
Too black-and-white for my taste but I like the idea of democracy.
The anti-abortionists don't like the idea of democracy, it would rob them of all of their power.

I think it is a creative argument as it pitches their values against each other. Religious freedom is the argument the religious right uses against having to bake a cake. (And it has also been successfully used to justify neglect homicide of children (real children), so it's not so benign.)
The argument for religious exemption for what you &
I consider things good for child welfare differ from an
exemption for abortion. The former has deleterious
effects, but those are arguably the exception. Abortion
is 100% deadly for the "baby".
I don't even consider it all that creative, given that
fundie attempts to seeks such dispensations are
continual.
