Talk | Religious Studies Roundtable: Reproductive Rights and Judaism (online)

Tuesday, November 2, 2021, 6:00 pm

Free

There is no direct statement on abortion in the Hebrew Bible nor the New Testament. Yet conservative Christian legislators often invoke “bible-based” principles as their mandate to ban abortion and deny women’s constitutional right to end a pregnancy.

This event explores how different discussion of abortion would be if informed by Jewish practices, which consider the complexity of one being growing to fruition in the body of another. Psychology graduate students Jessica Bush and Samantha Klein will draw on ongoing research projects in qualitative psychology to examine the ways Jewish women make difficult decisions around reproductive choices. Midrash scholar Fran Snyder will illuminate the ways rabbinic approaches to the "right to lIfe" acknowledge complexity as they face questions ancient and new. The discussion will be moderated by Mark Larrimore, Director of the Religious Studies Program at Eugene Lang College.
