It's part of a growing national effort by anti-abortion advocates to make abortion a water-quality issue as nearly two-thirds of all abortions are conducted via medication.
"The people of Wisconsin deserve clean water and an assurance that harmful endocrine disruptors and pathological waste does not contaminate our lakes, streams, rivers, and wetlands," said Sen. André Jacque, R-New Franken, and Reps. Lindee Brill, R-Sheboygan Falls, and Nate Gustafson, R-Omro, in a memo seeking cosponsors.

If that is an oversimplification, OK, but just remember that many of the worst examples in history of violence toward groups of people are by people in power pursuing their otherworldly aims, and that includes religious persecution in the name of Jesus or another deity.

(19,022 posts)One must believe, trust, and follow the literal Word of God as written in the Bible.
Never mind that 99.99999% (or thereabouts) of people cannot possibly know what was actually written in the Bible, because these words were written in many other languages, that not only we don't speak, but those languages were very different at the time of the Bible writing than those languages are today.
So, they must rely on other people in their church to explain to them, the meaning of those words they must trust and follow, and they are not allowed to use their own brains and reasoning power, because relying on human reasoning is sinful.
