Barrett has kept the level of her involvement a secret, but a new report has revealed her standing in People of Praise.
HuffPost that “there has never been any evidence whatsoever to suggest that the People of Praise played a role in inspiring Margaret Atwood’s book.”
While male “headship” does encourage traditional gender roles, it is not uncommon in conservative Christian communities.
Democrats and abortion rights groups worry that Barrett’s religious views will affect her decisions as a judge, especially on the precedent set by Roe v. Wade ― the landmark Supreme Court decision ensuring women’s access to abortion. Barrett, whose track record has been hostile toward abortion, LGBTQ and voting rights, has referred to Roe v. Wade as an “erroneous decision.”
