While pro-lifers see obvious significance in the cause of slaughtering innocent children being taken up by self-proclaimed followers of the Ruler of Darkness, the big question was how more mainstream pro-aborts would react to such esteemed company.<\/p>\n<p>The answers don\u2019t disappoint, and NewsBusters\u2019 Katie Yoder <a href=\"http:\/\/newsbusters.org\/blogs\/katie-yoder\/2015\/05\/02\/feminist-media-hail-satanists-deeming-abortion-religious-belief\">has a bunch of &#8217;em<\/a>:<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The Frisky\u2019s Robyn Pennacchia <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thefrisky.com\/2015-05-01\/satanist-missouri-woman-invokes-religious-freedom-to-have-abortion-without-waiting-72-hours\/\">admitted<\/a>, \u201cAs much as I\u2019d really prefer to not have to turn to pageantry and stunts like people being all \u2018Oh, we totally worship Satan\u2019 \u2026 the shit they pull actually does work and does have an effect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cI am in favor, fervently, of whatever actually works,\u201d she confirmed. \u201cI applaud \u2018Mary\u2019 for standing up to this bullshit law and really hope she gets her abortion without having to jump through any ridiculous hoops.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">And if journalists\u2019 articles weren\u2019t clear enough, their Twitter feeds were.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u201cOkay, religious exemption laws are maybe cool when Satanists use them to get abortions without having to wait 3 days,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/jennykutner\/status\/594140939666464768\">tweeted<\/a> [Salon\u2019s Jenny] Kutner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Kay Steiger, senior editor at Think Progress, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kaysteiger\/status\/594135937766002689\">expressed<\/a>, \u201cI really love the Satanists\u201d while sharing [Tara] Culp-Ressler\u2019s piece.<\/p>\n<p>Other highlights include Jezebel\u2019s Anna Merlin <a href=\"http:\/\/jezebel.com\/satanic-temple-72-hour-abortion-waiting-period-is-agai-1701520935\">opining<\/a> that the Satanic Temple are \u201cthe best, smartest, and most compassionate trolls in America,\u201d while a <a href=\"http:\/\/jezebel.com\/to-be-quite-frank-if-i-m-going-by-the-actions-of-their-1701562912\">comment<\/a> claiming \u201cif I\u2019m going by the actions of their followers, Satan seems like a way cooler guy than Jesus\u201d got a whopping 499 recommendations from readers.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, there is one exception to Pro-Choice Devil Appreciation Week: Robin Marty at Care2, who <a href=\"http:\/\/www.care2.com\/causes\/does-the-satanic-religious-exemption-hurt-the-abortion-debate.html\">determines<\/a> that this \u201cstunt\u2026does little to actually help in this endeavor, and instead only alienates and belittles those of faith who are already supporters of (or who could be moved to embrace) reproductive access as a civil right,\u201d and \u201cpromotes the idea that a \u201creligion\u201d could be claimed not based on true faith and beliefs, but out of convenience of avoiding following the letter of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If the rest of the abortion crowd starts applying that level of rationality and self-awareness to their advocacy, we might have a problem. Fortunately for pro-lifers\u2019 future prospects, that doesn\u2019t look likely anytime soon. Case in point: Amanda Marcotte at Rolling Stone, who is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/politics\/news\/satanists-defending-abortion-rights-meet-5-conservatives-freaking-out-about-it-20150506\">trying to make a scandal<\/a> out of the fact that some of us noticed the irony of Satanists allying with babykillers:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">It&#8217;s an obvious, and brilliant, ploy to test how serious conservatives are about their supposed belief that a person&#8217;s &#8220;religious liberty&#8221; rights mean they can opt out of laws they simply don&#8217;t like. The Satanists are trying to prove that conservatives are hypocrites whose interest in religious exemptions only applies to situations where they can\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/rhrealitycheck.org\/article\/2014\/06\/30\/supreme-court-rules-hobby-lobby-corporate-religious-rights\/\">take away someone&#8217;s birth control<\/a>, or\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/thinkprogress.org\/lgbt\/2013\/12\/06\/3035121\/colorado-bakery-broke-law\/\">ruin a same-sex couple&#8217;s wedding<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Savvy conservatives would see this tactic for what it is and not take the bait. But luckily for us, many are not smart enough to do the math. Here are a few examples.<\/p>\n<p>What follows is a lot of sneering that sort of meanders through the various slurs and talking points, but nowhere substantiates our alleged hypocrisy\u2014further reinforcing my suspicion that Marcotte went into abortion advocacy at least partly because she wanted a field in which rigorous thinking wouldn\u2019t be expected of her.<\/p>\n<p>Marcotte\u2019s first example is a perfect illustration. Ostensibly, she\u2019s \u201cresponding\u201d to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/corner\/417880\/course-satanic-temple-embraces-abortion-and-course-left-applauds-david-french?target=author&amp;tid=1048\">David French&#8217;s take on the story at National Review<\/a>, but she doesn&#8217;t even try to address a single argument he makes. We get innuendo about French loving religious liberty \u201cas a cudgel against women\u201d and \u201csee[ing] a woman\u2019s medical care as the \u2018property rights\u2019 of her boss,\u201d and a joke about hearing the devil when you play Queen albums backwards\u2014but <em>nothing on what French actually says<\/em>. His point, for readers more analytical than Rolling Stone\u2019s:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Religious liberty case law is littered with examples of fringe religions seeking religious exemptions from various state laws and regulations. Sometimes they win. Often they lose. I suspect this effort \u2014 if it ever gets to court \u2013 would stumble on the state\u2019s acknowledged interest in protecting what the Supreme Court has called the \u201cpotential life\u201d of even non-viable unborn children.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, \u201cmy religion says so\u201d has <em>never<\/em> been the sole standard for how we decide these things\u2014it depends on whether your actions infringe on someone else\u2019s life, well being, liberty, or property. This whole line of attack is about as ignorant as claiming you don\u2019t see why religious liberty protects closing your business on Sundays but not burning witches at the stake.<\/p>\n<p>I would ask Marcotte, Pennacchia, Kutner, Steiger, and Merlin to take a refresher course on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/corner\/417906\/myopia-progressive-mind-mario-loyola\">negative versus positive rights<\/a>, but if there\u2019s one truth this episode has reinforced, it\u2019s that pro-aborts just don\u2019t care. They don\u2019t care whose freedoms they take away, they don\u2019t care whether they actually understand the legal concepts they\u2019re toying with, and they don\u2019t care whether they\u2019re enlisting the aid of what is still, increasingly secular though we may be, one of our culture\u2019s starkest symbols of pure evil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On April 30, Cassy Fiano told you about the Satanic Temple\u2019s move to challenge Missouri\u2019s 72-hour waiting period for abortion on the grounds that it violates their religious liberty.
