Creeping Theocracy Watch

Still confident that America is not becoming a theocracy?
Here's a news story about two young kids in Texas (We can call them Jack and Diane) who found themselves in a pickle. Seems that Diane got pregnant and they were both just kids. So, not being exactly the brightest bulbs in the box, Jack and Diane tried to induce an abortion by Jack standing on her stomach while Diane punched herself in the belly. Gross eh?
Anyway, it worked. And they were both arrested. Now, she has the legal right to abortion. But, according to the Fetal Protection Act (otherwise known as the "Gawd intended yer cooter for birthin' Bill") he's a murderer. He's been give a life sentence.
Still not a theocracy?
