I don’t know why you keep bringing up religion, I have not mentioned it at all. Perhaps you are conflating the reason for some states passing of anti-abortion laws with the law itself.

Either way, the federal government does not grant this right, therefore it is up to states to decide.

> It's a constitutional right (9th amendment) to not have personal liberties stripped by the states which are not enumerated in the Constitution. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion and right to privacy are all enumerably applicable to preserving this liberty.

None of these rights apply to abortion. If anything, there should be an enumerated right to bodily autonomy.
