After state trial courts dismissed a case brought against the state of Missouri by a group of Satanists suing the state for its strict abortion laws in 2015, the state Supreme Court recently agreed to take the case, reported U.S. News.
The members of the Satanic Temple believe that the strict abortion laws, including requiring women to wait 72 hours before an abortion, requiring doctors to give women an ultrasound of the fetus before she is allowed to terminate the pregnancy, and forcing doctors to offer literature that says “life begins at conception,” are religiously discriminating according to their doctrines.
