No need to bring a God into this. Alabama's constitution recognizes an unborn child's right to life.

But the judge quoted the Bible in making the decision:

<snip>In Friday’s ruling, Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Tom Parker invoked a 2018 “Sanctity of Life” amendment to the state’s constitution, ratified by voters, that requires courts to “recognize and support the sanctity of unborn life and the rights of unborn children, including the right to life.” Parker raised the amendment with religious fervor, citing biblical verse. “It is as if the People of Alabama took what was spoken of the prophet Jeremiah and applied it to every unborn person in this state: ‘Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, Before you were born I sanctified you.’ Jeremiah 1:5,” the judge wrote.

In one of numerous citations from the book of Genesis included in his opinion, Parker noted, “Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.” <snip>- Intercept
