Christian, Jewish groups sue to protect abortion access in unexpected twist on religious freedom
https://www.foxnews.com/media/christian-jewish-sue-protect-abortion-access-unexpected-twist-religious-freedom
Excerpt from the article: At the epicenter of one religious liberty dispute is Cara Berg Raunick, a Jewish woman who not only argued that a pregnant woman's life should take priority over an unborn child's, but also that the belief that life begins at conception is a "Christian" one.
"That is a religious and values-based comment," Berg Raunick said, quoted by The Associated Press. "A fetus is potential life, and that is worthy of great respect and is not to be taken lightly, but it does not supersede the life and health of the mother, period."

Our wise messenger, Kavshiel, the Angel Who Conquers Evil, provides a rebuttal to the statement made in the cited article about when a soul can enter the body according to Jewish tradition. Thank you, Kavshiel!
The Concept That The Soul Can Enter A Body At Conception Is Quoted In The Name Of The Ariz"l (Rabbi Isaac Luria) By His Student Rabbi Chaim Vital As Recorded In 'Sefer Hagilgulim' ('Book Of Reincarnation').
This Reference Was Specifically Quoted To Answer A Question Which Was Posed To Rabbi Isaac Luria As To When The Soul Of A Person Destined To Become A Jewish Convert Enters The Body Of That Future Jewish Convert. Rabbi Chaim Vital's Answer In The Name Of His Teacher, Rabbi Isaac Luria, Was: "At Conception."

Israel Pro-Life Education Project Update
We are working to bring our educational mission to Israel, in the form of the Israel Pro-Life Education Project, that will inform and transform Israel into a life affirming Jewish society inspired to protect unborn children and their families from the death and destruction of abortion. Currently, we are finalizing paperwork required by the IRS, and a tax attorney in Israel is looking into opening up a JPLF bank account in Israel to deposit donations in both shekels and dollars, and we are conferring with a fund raising group in Jerusalem. We need to pay a digital marketing company in Israel to build a Hebrew website and Hebrew social media platforms, translate our English memes and educational materials into Hebrew and manage the media campaign for a six month period until these funds can be raised in Israel. If you would like to learn more about how to help us with this project, please call Cecily at 412-758-3269.
