Quite a pickle right-wingers have gotten themselves into.
Religious leaders are now suing the state of Florida as the state's abortion ban violates their deeply held religious beliefs.

First of all, only a
edited quotes Yahoo News. It is even less reliable than CNN, MSNBC, or THE VIEW. Liberals here have proven they have the brains of a bag of hammers anyway.
Secondly, i already posted the Florida law that was signed by Governor DeSantis, shortly after the Supreme Court affirmed the CONSTITUTION and overturned Roe. Here is the link.

From your idiotic link:
The five separate lawsuits https://tmsnrt.rs/3BBEdIr, filed in Miami-Dade County, claim the state's ban curtails the clergy members' ability to counsel congregants about abortion in accordance with their faiths, since Florida law prohibits counseling or encouraging a crime.
This assumes that congregations will be filled with nothing but abortion doctors and the medical facilities, since the only ones who can be criminally charged are "PROVIDERS."
Penalty on Abortion Provider for Unlawful Abortion: Third-degree felony, imprisonment up to 5 yrs.; or 2nd-degree misdemeanor for performing legal abortion in unlawful place, up to 60 days imprisonment; Fines: 3rd-degree felony, up to $5,000; 2nd-degree misdemeanor, up to $500
So if there IS some preacher, priest, rabbi or imam who preaches to women that they should not kill their babies after 15 weeks, that is hardly encouraging a crime. If you and those idiots at YahooNews want to make a case that there are ANY preachers, priests, rabbis or imams who would preach that a healthy woman get an abortion after the 15 weeks. You'll have to provide proof.
So far, you just have a bunch of ambulance chasing lawyers who have provide ZERO testimony of such preaching from any preacher, rabbit, priest or imam.
Has any clergy member been arrested for preaching?
We'll wait. By all means, produce the proof.
Or admit that the Yahoo story is a pathetic lie.
