(SRN NEWS) – Pro-life advocates are issuing a warning about Missouri’s abortion amendment. The measure would bar the government from infringing on “a person’s fundamental right to reproductive freedom.” Pro-lifers say that language would allow children to get abortions and sex-change operations without parental involvement. In addition to Missouri, voters are considering constitutional abortion amendments in Nebraska, Montana, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada and South Dakota. Seven other states have already enshrined abortion in their constitutions.

A ban on protesting outside abortion clinics has gone into effect in England and Wales. However, it leaves a question mark over whether pro-life demonstrators who pray silently will be breaking the law. The statute bars protests within 150 meters of clinics. It also makes it a crime to “intentionally influence the decision” of a woman seeking an abortion.  The Crown Prosecution Service says silent prayer near a clinic will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Pro-life organizations warn that banning silent prayer would violate freedom of religion.

It’s not illegal to talk about your faith in the workplace but many Americans hesitate to do so.  According to a new poll, nine percent of Evangelical Protestants, 15 percent of Mainline Protestants and 13 percent of Catholics say they “conceal their religious beliefs at work for fear of others’ perceptions.” Nineteen percent of Jewish workers also do this. But the survey also finds that a lot of religious Americans believe that their faith has to be a part of their working day and that they have a responsibility to tell others if they have a reasonable opportunity.

A leading Christian school is being sued by a man who is living as a woman. The suit has been filed by Ellenor Zinski, a former Liberty University employee fired by the school after disclosing her “gender identity”.  Zinski, who is being represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, claims that his firing was a violation of the Civil Rights Act. Liberty says it was within its rights to let the man go, contending that the Civil Rights Act permits religious educational institutions to make employment decisions consistent with their religious doctrine.
