Summary
What does the bible say about abortion? Co-presidents Annie Laurie Gaylor, Dan Barker, and FFRF attorney Liz Cavell answer that question during FFRF's new weekly "Ask an Atheist" series on Facebook Live, taking questions from the audience. Then we speak with Ed Gogol, president of Final Choices Illinois, about the 1-year milestones for "End of Life" laws in California and Canada, as well as the rest of the country, and how religious dogma interferes with the freedom of citizens to make compassionate choices about dying.
