(ChurchLeaders) The Satanic Temple (TST), which is classified as a religious organization by the IRS, is challenging the abortion law that recently took effect in Texas. TST argues that the law violates the religious freedom of members who want to experience the “Satanic Abortion Ritual.”
“The Satanic Temple stands ready to assist any member that shares its deeply-held religious convictions regarding the right to reproductive freedom,” says The Satanic Temple website. “Accordingly, we encourage any member who resides in Texas and wishes to undergo the Satanic Abortion Ritual within the first 24 weeks of pregnancy to contact The Satanic Temple so we may help them fight this law directly.”
