Do abortion laws threaten people based on their choice of religion?
It’s been all over the news as of late - a young woman dying in an Irish hospital because doctors refused to administer an abortion. In case you haven’t been keeping up, the basics are that the woman was suffering from blood poisoning and tried to get an abortion due to her failing health. Unfortunately, Ireland has some of the strictest laws when it comes to abortion and so the doctors denied her. She finally ended up having a miscarriage and then the doctors removed the dead fetus, but it was by that time too late. Her health had become so bad that she eventually succumbed and died.
