The article explores the inconsistency in Republican views regarding abortion and immigration, using Alabama's restrictive abortion law as a case study. Governor Kay Ivey claims the law protects life, even in cases of rape. However, the author argues this principle, affirming the sanctity of life, should also extend to migrant children entering the U.S. It raises questions about the moral obligation to care for all children once they are within a country's borders, suggesting hypocrisy in varying applications of the same foundational beliefs.
The logic behind Alabama's abortion law hinges on the belief that every life is a sacred gift from God, compelling women to bear children regardless of circumstances.
Comparing views on abortion and immigration reveals a cognitive dissonance; if life is sacred in one case, why not extend that obligation to migrant children?
