When you talk about people with compassion and respect, you probably wouldn't think about the Satanists. However, The Satanic Temple recently went viral on the Internet, and surprisingly, it was for all the right reasons.
The Temple had an announcement recently in which they said they demanded the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) grant them access to abortion-inducing drugs “without being subjected to the agency’s regulations.”
Their demand to get access to abortion pills is known as misoprostol and mifepristone, and it was made under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. The Satanic Temple made its demand by sending a letter to the FDA.
Funny enough, the letter made its way to the FDA the same day that the Supreme Court agreed on a Texas law that would make abortions illegal after 6 weeks of pregnancy.
If the law is allowed to remain then it would be the strictest abortion law in the US since 1973.
The Satanic Temple didn't like this new law at all, and they announced on Twitter that they have "Religious Liberty" and they believe in bodily autonomy. This got a mass of positive reactions from people on Twitter and you can see some of them if you scroll down.

satanic_temple_This isn't the first the Satanic Temple showed its progressive activism and people didn't hesitate to show some love to them
@Midlife_scrubThe pro-choice people were thrilled to see this support for their cause.
@jussomeotherguyI guess some people were more impressed by the Temple than others. This person is definitely a big fan now.
@ABKinSTLItThis user saw a lot of irony in all of this.
@MissAnon666People are impressed by how the Satanic Temple found a loophole in the system by using the Religious Freedom laws.
@milo_lastnameThey recieved support from people all around the globe.
@BirminghamKavThey might pass this law too if it comes to it.
@WillRennarEveryone has their own body and you should be free to do whatever you want with it.
@shhhappensPeople are more than thankful to the Satanic Temple and the support they've shown in the battle for abortion rights.
@nishakittymeowEven if you don't agree with everything the Temple stands for, you can still give them credit where it's due
@RealBotPowerWell well well, who do we have here
@JesusImposterSo there you have it, an unexpected ally in the fight for abortion rights was found in the Satanic Temple. Even though their name might have you believe that they're evil, they've always been progressively active.
It's still pretty crazy to see so many people side by the Satanic Temple but this time they deserve the support.
