AAIC Chronicles Episode III: Sunsara Taylor

After the podcast, I went to the Sunsara Taylor event. She talked about women’s rights, but also about human rights and how religion interferes with them. She specially focused in abortion an how religious people tend to see the issue in black and white, trying to convince women to not get an abortion without even knowing their circumstances, often with violence aimed to intimidate them. I asked her a question about the difference between aborting a 3-week old fetus and a 8-month old. She explained that very few women choose to have an abortion that late, and if that happens, it usually is because of medical complications. Of course, that is something believers would not say. For them, every fertilized egg is a “baby.”

She is nice, isn't she?
