Synagogue challenges Florida abortion law over religion | AP News : ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — A new Florida law prohibiting abortion after 15 weeks with some exceptions violates religious freedom rights of Jews in addition to the state constitution's privacy protections, a synagogue claims in a lawsuit. It does violate it.  If Roe V Wade is overturned it will be trampling on the rights on every non-Christian group.  No other religion believes the same as the Christians.  So everyone else should be bringing lawsuits...and the SCOTUS cannot deny someone's right to their own religion.
