### **Abortion was formally made a crime against the state by Franco in January 1941, with criminal sentences, fines and loss of rights for women, medical professionals who performed abortions and pharmacists who provided drugs to facilitate abortions. They were allied in their actions by the Roman Catholic Church. Source: Wikipedia
Abortion was formally made a crime by the US Supreme Court in many states in America on June 24, 2022. This decision was also supported by the Roman Catholic Church and fundamentalist Christian theology.**

This is not God taking back his creation. It is a heresy. This is a futile attempt to go back to the 17th century, to violently punish women for trying to be equal, to institutionalize white male supremacy and to declare eternal war against the fundamental pillars of democracy.
This is not about the Constitution. It is about Sharia. It is malignant narcissism, using the letter of the law to destroy the spirit of the law.
Permanently.
Such an effort will not succeed because it will produce so much trauma and resentment that it will backfire. It will fail because a new story on earth is trying to be born. The irrepressible force of a species wide evolution cannot be stopped from moving forward toward a new narrative of inclusion, cooperation and recognition that all humanity including animals and the earth is sacred. Not a thousand armies can oppose an idea whose time has come.
The Supreme Court, in paying allegiance to the narratives of fear, superiority, paranoia and separation of Donald Trump and his supporters, has lost it's hollowed mandate through conflict of interest, lying, corruption, fanaticism and being completely out of touch with the will of the people.
It has now destroyed itself as a credible institution. It has shamed and humiliated itself irrevocably by callously overturning 50 years of precedent. Those responsible, Barrett, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, Thomas and Alito will never recover.
