Abortions and the bible.

[K-town Vol Fan]

In the bible, God murdered Bathsheba's newborn baby, killed all the first born sons in Egypt, sent bears to murder children, commanded Joshua to murder the children in Jericho, and all babies were wiped out during the flood. It also talks about dismembering children and cutting them out of the mother's womb.

So please help me understand, why do some crazy Republican Christians think their God doesnt approve aborting a fetus of an unwanted pregnancy?

Cause its murder. No need for a fancy term to hide behind. Dont need the bible to know murder is wrong. Especially killing your own child.

It's not murder. But isn't that kind of the sticking point.

 

[bcmbvol]

It is homocide

 

[luthervol]

It is homocide

Not in my view.

 

[davethevol]

Not in my view.

Jeffery Dahmer used mental gymnastics to justify his views as well. That doesn’t make it right.

Next time a woman has a miscarriage, we should hold god responsible for the death of the unborn fetus. God is a stone cold baby killer.

 

[bcmbvol]

Luther and I have talked this out a bit before

Yea, thats exactly the same.

So what was the full context of each of those events as compared to a women who just decides she doesn’t want to be pregnant anymore?

 

[hog88]

This will be a shizz show.

 

[luthervol]

This will be a shizz show.

Every sperm is sacred.
Every zygote is sacred.

The two sound about the same to me.

Libs don't take things in context, they make things in their own context.......it's their god complex.

Sperm and egg are haploid cells that are are unique to the person they came from. They are never viable on their own. An embryo is a unique set of genetic information unto itself and can be viable.

 

[volfanjustin]

The left would have been much better off if they stuck with safe are rare, now we are at late term and even if baby survives a botched abortion still ok to let them die. And it doesn't bother dems one bit women use abortions simply as a form of birth control.

 

[T-TownVol]

Don't ya just love it when non believers try to use the Bible to justify their ignorant point of view.

 

[luthervol]

Sperm and zygote are haploid cells that are are unique to the person they came from. They are never viable on their own. An embryo is a unique set of genetic information unto itself and can be viable.

A zygote is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes. The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information necessary to form a new individual. In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage.

Trying to use a biblical basis as an argument for abortion is indeed going to be a “shizz show”. In each of the “examples” the OP listed the children’s deaths were the result of wrath brought down by God due to the actions of the humans as punishment to the humans. So yeah... just like abortion and really really like the description used by the OP, “unwanted pregnancy”.

You right. I misspoke. I meant egg

[bcmbvol]

I misspoke sorry

 

[ClearwaterVol]

Abortion is such a nasty word. Let's outlaw abortions and just allow early delivery. If the baby lives, it was god's will. If not, it was also god's will.

 

[luthervol]

No problem.
My point is that I don't assign any magical status to the second a sperm penetrates an egg. Some do.

Let’s use the biblical examples earlier and if the baby dies let’s punish the father and mother by ripping the dudes junk off and sewing the chick’s vagina shut. I really don’t think the libs want to involve a First Testament vengeful God in their solution.
