The Satanic Temple is opening a health clinic in New Mexico to provide "free religious medication abortion" and will name the facility "The Samuel Alito’s Mom’s Satanic Abortion Clinic" in mockery of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, who authored the opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.

TST Health, the new medical services arm of the nontheistic religious organization, will provide telehealth screenings and appointments to provide abortion pills to patients. These services will be provided free of charge as part of The Satanic Temple's "abortion ritual," though patients must still pay for the medications from a pharmacy, which typically cost around $90, according to the TST Health website.

The New Mexico facility will be operated by licensed medical staff and will make its services available to state residents who are at least 17 years old, up to 11 weeks pregnant and medically eligible for an abortion.

The facility was named for Justice Alito's mother because Alito wrote the majority opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization ... "In 1950, Samuel Alito’s mother did not have options, and look what happened," said Malcolm Jarry, a co-founder of The Satanic Temple.

The Satanic Temple was co-founded by Jarry and Lucien Graves a decade ago to be a Satanic faith-based organization that would meet the requirements to receive government benefits and privileges as a religious organization, but without belief in a deity. Its stated mission is to "encourage benevolence and empathy, reject tyrannical authority, advocate practical common sense, oppose injustice, and undertake noble pursuits."

The group claims bodily autonomy and "the freedom to offend" as sacrosanct in its fundamental tenets. It has sparked outrage ... by challenging state abortion bans by claiming its "abortion ritual" is an essential religious practice protected under state Religious Freedom Restoration Acts.

Rumor on another forum has the health clinic opening in Espanola but with an online-only doctor portal.

They are just trolling.

Well at least the satanists come right out and admit what haters they are.

This is great...usher in these gals, they can see the evil charade for all it is. Helps with repentence later, though the baggage will always be there. Even Saint Peter carried it to heaven, but John didn’t have to.

Confusing headline: was Justice Alito’s mom named Satan?

Maybe there should be a “Malcolm Jarry Mandatory Death Penalty by Burning at the Stake Act” for baby killers.

You know, it would be so cool to be rich, and have a perfectly restored P-47 Thunderbolt. And to actually have it in New Mexico, with it’s 3400 rounds of 50 cal, a couple of 500 pounders and that arrangement of ten 5” HVAR rockets.

It would be so cool to have it roll in on the devil’s “church”.

Isn’t Espanola tiny? Why in tiny Espanola?
