Roe Vs Wade won't be overturned. I think the voices in my head have an idea, and it would be a big step in the right direction. We turn abortion clinics into "Temples of Human Sacrifice" to a Deity that we simply call "IT".
I mean, the Catholic Church made the infants slaughtered by Herod canonized Saints called "Holy Innocents". God wanted his only son to wear a crown of thorns , be flogged, and nailed to a cross to atone for sin. God asked Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, and was extremely proud of him for getting ready to sacrifice a human being.
Why not sacrifice unwanted unborn children legally in a way that spares the child a lifetime of suffering, makes a Saint out of the child, and potentially atones for the sins of the world ( according to some theologians)?
The mother is to name the sacrificed unborn baby and write the name in a book of souls which is placed in a Honden when filled up like the Japanese do at Yasukuni shrine and they become "Holy Innocents" and we venerate them like they are Saints and they become American heroes (Infantry). Would that be morally sound from a Theist perspective?
Obviously atheists would object because it would identify that we are sacrificing the infants to an unseen sentient being, and we are claiming the fetus has a Soul/Spirit, but Theologically , Theists have sacrificed their unwanted infants to Deities since before Abraham got famous for trying to kill his child on an altar.
If we acknowledge a fetus has an eternal soul, sounds to me like Theologically speaking we have made a step in the right direction. Thoughts?
