Does it seem ironic that a South Florida congregation affiliated with the Reform movement, which as a matter of policy rejects Jewish law, is filing a lawsuit against a restrictive abortion bill because they claim it violates Jewish law?
On the principle that even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while, that Reform or whatever congregation is correct. Halacha can be a bit more flexible that some of the proposed anti-abortion laws. See Rabbi Maryles blog for a detailed discussion.
Maryles is an open mevaze talmidei chachomim who promotes every left wing looney cause that’s in the news that day, concerning religion.
No, the Reform apikorsum are not correct in this case. The only protection needed in anti-abortion laws are to protect the life of the mother. And all the laws provide that protection.
