Wait, does that mean that every time TST and other non-Christian orgs get a win over these goobers, they've defeated Yahweh?
Thank you for obviating the need for me to post my own take. This is clearly better.
Hey, it's his own rules. But I'm guessing logic isn't his strong suit...
So, as seemingly pretty often happens TST is good at making a statement, pretty good at getting government to back down, but actually really bad at the actual legal stuff.
In this case, they lost in part essentially because they couldn't prove anyone was effected. This was a case where they were using their "abortion ritual" to argue for 1A protection for abortion, but a big failure of their suit was not having a woman who was a member of TST who could not perform the abortion ritual because she could not get an abortion in Idaho (in other words someone whose claimed right to abortion as a religious ritual was actually violated). They also failed to meet deadlines to respond.
They are of course free to try again, ideally when they have someone whose rights were violated they can point to to demonstrate how someone's rights were being violated.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
