Just look at the name of the Act.
Put that way, who the hell is going to vote for?
By the way, I'm not sure if you guys have mastered the separation of church and state yet.... Not even close.
What do you guys think about the issue of church involvement in politics?
I think everyone from the non-believer category should get together to form a lobby group... is there any such group in America?

Fetus Farming Prohibition means Stopping the farming of fetuses. And it's an Act, and not a law. Which means that it continues for a set time, and must be voted on again when its time is up.
Put that way, I am voting for the prohibition.
I don't think that fetuses should be farmed, unless the mothers want that, or indicated that. It's like a dead body. If my 12 year old died in surgery, wouldn't they ask me if they wanted to use her body for scientific research?
Churches are involved in politics any way. That separation of church and state law means nothing until someone is looking to hide behind it. If they are not, then why is it that political candidates speak at churches before elections?
Trying to get the congregations votes that's why.

And this falls within the enumerated powers of Congress how?
If religious individuals want to get involved in politics, they have every right to do so. Same with organizations who lobby for or against specific laws, whether for-profit corporations or churches. That's the wonder of free speech.
That being said, I think it's fundamentally a violation of constitutional principles to enact secular laws for purely religious reasons. If the law doesn't serve a valid non-religious purpose, then it should be up to the churches (not the government) to enforce.

Fetus farming sounds odd at best. Churches being involved in politics and preaching politics from the pulpit, pees me off. It comes off sounding like christian dictatorship. Christianity is not the only religion in this country but has the biggest mouth and political agenda that I have ever seen. Thank you, President Carter for telling Playboy you had lusted because from there that statement catapulted Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson's Moral Majority into the America's face.

The pro-choice lobby is rather powerful in the US. It's why abortion is still legal.
As far as church involvement with government, the last time that happened in America, people were hanged for witchcraft.
