Hate Group Uses Alabama “Frozen Embryos” Ruling To Try And Block Florida’s Abortion Rights Ballot Measure

The Alabama Supreme Court ruled 7-2 that an embryo created through in-vitro fertilization (IVF) is a “minor child” and is no different under the law from an unborn child in the womb.

I don’t understand this ruling at all.  How even religious extremists could find a frozen embryo or any embryo a “minor child” defies all medical knowledge of biology.  Of what cells are, of what happens in the reproductive track through the stages of fetal development.  Hell I don’t even know it all to be honest and I read up on it.  But medically at the point where it is not even implanted in a host it is not even a potential child.  And that is all a pregnancy is until viability, a potential possible future maybe child that the body could expel at any time.  There is no mystery that medically this makes no sense.   So the real question is in 2024 is the US going to be governed by dark age superstitions or real medical science? But as always religious extremists can never be happy to win the right to force their views on some people, they must drive on until they have the right to force their religious superstitions on everyone.  Yet they claim being forced to use a trans person’s preferred pronouns are an infringement of their civil rights, but the right to control female bodies and other people’s reproduction / sexual choices is normal and their right.   Hell these people won’t take a vaccine to save hundreds of thousands of people from dying, they won’t wear a mask because it violates their civil rights.   But telling people who they can have sex with, how they may dress, and what kind of sex they are allowed, and of course preventing life-saving medical procedures for pregnant people are somehow fine for them to do?  I don’t have the stomach to repost the rant of the religious bigot group as they now try to use the Alabama ruling to force the state of Florida to disallow the abortion ballot measure.  Please go to the link above and below to read them.     Hugs.  Scottie 

The Alabama Supreme Court on Friday reversed Mobile County Circuit Court Judge Jill Parrish Phillips’ decision to dismiss a lawsuit in which a couple sued an Alabama fertility clinic and hospital for the “wrongful death” of their frozen embryos in a ruling that was riddled with theology.

The ruling pointed to the Alabama Constitution Section 36.06, which argues that each person was made in God’s image, meaning each life has an incalculable value that “cannot be wrongfully destroyed without incurring the wrath of a holy God.”

  1. I will not accept this until they give all those preborn baybees full rights under the law . this would lead to adjustments to voting making 17 years old voters and giving the parents standard child deductions under all taxes. Until this are done we should halt the regression of society on it’s trip back to the dark ages when their babble was all they needed and science was mainly concerned with turning lead into gold. There are some good points to this in that they would have to give up all forms of modern communication (TV , Cell Phones, Radio) that has been leading them to corruption. If it isn’t specifically mention in their babble then it must be forbidden and they will have to do without.Then we will see if they really strongly believe.

    1. Hi Muttpupdad. All great points. Many have expanded them out to can you adopt them for tax write-offs, can you use them for child support payments, what happens to inheritance if the “parent” dies, just some examples I have read. There were a lot more at that linked page and on other sites reviewing this. John Fugelsang has a great list of things that need to be changed due to this ruling.

      I don’t mind these people living in the dark ages for themselves, I just ask they don’t try to drag the rest of us back there with them. I liken it to the Amish demanding everyone in the country living as they do. It is stupid to pretend the advances and progress of the last 2,500 years since the bible was written.

      Plus they misuse the verses that the court cited, it was not about all babies as some fundamentalist Christians claim, god was saying he knew Isaiah to be his prophet in the womb, that he created him for that purpose. Not that all children are known in the womb. Plus the judge was citing the Old Testament which is the Jewish part of the bible, and they accept abortion. In that they forget the part where god said if two men are fighting and a pregnant woman gets struck and losses the baby the assailant who caused it is fined, but if the woman dies then the person is to be put to death. Meaning the fetus was not a life, but the woman was. But hey what is the bible if you can not cite it to mean anything you want to have it mean right? Hugs. Scottie

  2. Also, let a utility company be sued or charged with wrongful death, and we’ll see how long this lasts.

    Meanwhile, FL is trying to prevent such a ruling by passing that amendment. It really needs to get a whopping majority of votes!

    1. Hi Ali. Yes but the Attorney General and now that Christian hate group is trying to use that ruling to block it going on the ballot. The AG had a list of off the wall reasons that he wanted the supreme court of Florida to block it, one was that the term viability would confuse voters too much. Hugs. Scottie

      1. I saw that. I think it’s going to depend a great deal upon the people of the state of Florida to make those working against the people’s wish to vote understand that they should not take away the people’s right to vote.
        The rest will shake out-some bad, as we’re seeing in AL, some not as bad, maybe even some good, if people will take and use the rights they have while they still have them.
