A Satanic church is suing the state of Texas for the right to perform ritual abortions.

The Satanic Temple is suing on behalf of an anonymous Texas woman, arguing the state’s medical restrictions on abortion interfere with her religious beliefs.

The suit claims a mandatory sonogram and 24-hour waiting period violate two of the Temple’s seven tenets, which claim “one’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone,” and “beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world [and] one should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs.”

The suit claims the restrictions interfere with their own rituals regarding abortion, which they claim are intended to reduce the shame associated with the procedure.

“The ritual goes like this,” spokesman Lucian Greaves explained. “Before the abortion takes place … a member of The Satanic Temple will look at her reflection, be reminded of her personhood and responsibility to herself, take deep breaths, focus on her intent and make herself comfortable. When ready, she will say the third and fifth tenet of the temple aloud.”

The third tenet declares “one’s body is inviolable” while the fifth claims “one should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s belief.”

After an abortion, Greaves says “the woman would return to her reflection and cite her personal affirmation: ‘By my body, my blood. By my will, it is done.’”

While the group uses the “Satanic” name, they are technically atheists.  Many atheists claim to be “Satanic,” but don’t believe Satan exists. They use the “Satanic” label and perform “rituals” for shock value and to mock Judeo-Christian beliefs and rites, not believing it has any actual effect.

      1. Then they can take all the squad and fix them and the rest of the democrats so none of them can conceive. Cause none of them want anyone else to conceive they want all our children dead one way or another they they can do it to all the illegals they catch or any at the borders

        1. If you listen to PJW, he’ll describe how men are losing their reproductive capabilities. The Godless hubris of these murderous “Globalist” potentates has been demonstrated time and time again, as they seek to slaughter scores of hapless populations. Only stupid liberals would be ignorant enough to subscribe to such inhuman campaigns.

  1. Perhaps they can ask Mexico to sell them one of the active volcanos so they can make themselves feel even more powerful when they jump down into it to kill their innocent unborn babies.

  2. screw her ane that group of fools who are looking to burn in hades . this is a Christian country their lassuit has no merit in this great country ,theycan pack their crap and leave the african dessert should be a great placwe for the them it hot as hades and noon else will bug then except maybe be GOD.

  3. This must not be allowed, this is evil.
    We as a nation under God must stand up to the crimes that are being committed against the most vulnerable, our heritage( babies & children in sex trafficking.
    Stand up America!

    1. They have proven that cheating works. How can we ever win against people who never play by the established rules? Problem is that we have no one to whom we can turn, so they keep getting away with their systematic destruction of our values and our country.

  4. These people are sick. Maybe Texas needs to remove these devil worshipers. Don’t want a baby….close your legs, use protection…..babies don’t ask to be born or killed.

  5. When you do rituals like that, the person(s), the person give themselves to satan. Also brings forth a demon. I don’t think that some realize what they are doing but sees something different and to them fun. The leaders makes it look glamorous.For every baby sacrificed a demon walks amongst humans. Ppl don’t understand that everytime they play a oujia board, Bloody Mary, Sara Sarita, Sandman plus many more are not just kids games. Ppl has been doing these rituals for
    many, many yrs. I’m a paranormal investigator. We don’t do anything that will bring in evil. May God help them all for what they do.

  6. this is more reason to support the “life at conception act”, once the constitution acknowledges a conceived child their own tenets work against them:
    I. One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.
    III. One’s body [the baby’s] is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
    IV. The freedoms of others [the baby’s] should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one’s own.V.
    V. Beliefs should conform to one’s best scientific understanding of the world [life at conception]. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one’s beliefs.
    VII. Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word. [can’t get more compassionate than considering a baby’s life]

  7. Oh my Lord, please come back now. EVIL is trying to take over.
    This is horrific, and some Attorney took this case, very DISTURBING what’s going on in the world.

  8. The satanic tenant ritual should generally be enough to limit the number of abortions of these satanists unless they can have cheat sheets/monitor to read the tenant. Most of them have an IQ lower than sloe joe and could not memorize the tenant.

  9. Henny Penny the sky is falling. Some people will believe just about anything if it is made mystical enough and if , in their minds, it appears to justify their thinking. The end doesn’t always justify the means. After all, many people voted for Biden.

  10. biden administration is the VERY WORST. This jerk & his communist regime is KILLING AMERICA, he still lies, and he wants to unite America, his ACTIONS PROVE OTHERWISE. He needs to go AWAY!!! HYPOCRITES, ALL OF THEM, psaki continues to LIE for her boss & she smiles like it’s ok.
    He gets to spend time with his family during Easter, HYPOCRITE. Does biden have his vaccine passport??? I am sure he will never own one, and his cronies won’t either!!!
    HYPOCRITE, HYPOCRITE, HYPOCRITE!!!

    1. yeah, on one hand Christianity has to be declared CRIMINAL, on the other hand they all go home for EASTER…..to CELEBRATE it…?????? Don’t think they even understand that EASTER and Christmas go hand in hand with CHRISTIANITY/ that these two SYMBOLIZE Christianity…..so STOOPID…..

  11. THEY may be in for one HELL of a SURPRISE! GOD WILL NOT be MOCKED. Wouldn’t want to be them. GOOD LUCK! FOOLS!

  12. If legalized, this will allow such groups to publicly do what the globalists do behind closed doors – ritual human sacrifice in Luciferian worship.
    What else would they be doing with the tens of thousands of children who “disappear” annually?

    1. yeah, and “hillary” comes to mind = did WITCHCRAFT while in the WH…..I guess, big Mike and now jill are continuing on……

  13. TIME TO ” A B O R T ” THESE KINDS OF WHACO’S AS THEY ARE DESTROYING THE KIDS MINDS WITH THIS WITCH CRAFT! THEY BURNED TWITTS LIKE HER AT THE STAKE IN NEW ENGLAND CRNYURIES AGO, CALLED THE ” SALEM WITCH HUNT “:!

  14. How can she perform an abortion without violating her body. Even the use of any drug would violate the body.

  15. Biden’s the Chief Satanist, then Piglosi, Schumer and Harris…they’ve all sold their souls to the Devil and he will collect soon, according to CNN but don’t quote me on that because I can’t be sure of the actual source! Killing babies makes them wealthier, have more power but they will eventually pay their dues, when Satan’s contract is due!

  16. So that’s how they claim to rationalize murder in the first degree because it’s premeditated murder. ABORTION IS MURDER. SATANISM IS NOTHING MORE THAN A BLASPHEMOUS SIN AGAINST GOD. THEY WILL BURN IN HELL. I’M PRAYING FOR THE BABIES. THEY ARE INNOCENT. IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE PREGNANT THEN DON’T HAVE SEX, IT’S THAT SIMPLE.

  17. Hey biden, see what your doing to our country, you are alienating ALOT of people in America, you said you were the president for EVERYONE, PROVE IT. You’re so against guns, so show us, have your own son arrested for his ILLEGAL GUN POSSESSION. SOOOOO HYPOCRITICAL, biden, you are an IDIOT
