    Roe V Wade was overturned before the midterm. This jackass had more than half of his Presidential term to do anything about Roe V Wade. He was the vice president for Obama for 8 years and Obama promised to codify Roe V Wade into law in 2008. The reality is that he doesn’t support Roe V Wade or abortion access. He’s just lying.

    Then, reiterating his position on Roe, he said, “I’ve never been supportive of, you know, ‘It’s my body, I can do what I want with it.’ But I have been supportive of the notion that this is probably the most rational allocation of responsibility that all the major religions have signed on and debated over the last thousand years.”

    Biden says that he doesn’t support bodily autonomy and that he thinks that religions have authority over abortion access.

            I still think it’s wild that I just learned that Samaritanism is a thing, an abrahamic religion even, that split with the Jews well before the Christians but originally, yeah, same religion. I was reading about the Druze the other day too. It’s crazy how many religions there are, i literally do not know how a person decides to believe in one

              They don’t. If maybe 1% of religious people consciously chosen their religion i would be quite surprised.
