The bible i learned didn’t consider a fetus a life, only a prospective live. Penalty for terminating a pregnancy (say a pregnant woman falls down your stairway) was monetary, not criminal.
But the bible is a book interpreted differently by different sects, many of your fellow religious anti-choice folks think gambling is evil, but yet you think it’s ok (presumably) to promote. Maybe those folks should make both the medical and gambling laws in the US.
The US was designed to be a country were all religions can exist, some larger sects think this means they should harrass everyone else into adopting their religious beliefs as law. Well just like most christians won’t think of banning the sale of pork so the jews and muslims among them don’t have to shop in a store selling pork, we shouldn’t let one group force there interpretation of when life begin.
I appreciate that you are horrified about 45 million abortions, but i’m horrified that millions of americans think that an additional 1 million unwanted children being brought in to the US every year is less horrific.
I mean we aren’t farm animals, we shouldn’t breed just to put more individuals into the herd. Children should be created by willing, loving parents, otherwise that child is short changed from day 1.
