Satanic Temple opens abortion clinic in Virginia, claims pregnancy termination is religious ritual

The Satanic Temple has opened a second abortion clinic in the US, this time in Virginia, where expectant mothers can engage in a self-focused abortion ritual, which has been endorsed by Cosmopolitan magazine. The goal of the Satanic Temple in turning abortion into a ritual is so that they can make the claim that practicing abortion is a religious liberty issue that that the termination of pregnancy is a "spiritual" undertaking. Abortion in Virginia is legal through the 27th week, or second trimester of pregnancy.
