Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, took to the House floor Tuesday to warn that there are Americans who want to “force” their religious beliefs upon us by law. You’re probably thinking: Finally! A Republican with the courage to talk about some states’ total abortion bans thanks to a subset of right-wing Christians who believe “life begins at conception.” Of course, that’s not what Roy was talking about.
Kevin Stitt signed a total abortion ban, he declared: “I promised Oklahomans that as governor I would sign every piece of pro-life legislation,” adding, “From the moment life begins at conception is when we have a responsibility as human beings to do everything we can to protect that baby’s life.” The idea that “life begins at conception,” which Roy also espouses, is a religious belief held by only a subset of Christians.
