The abortion in scripture wasn't for any reason was it? Even those that went through the process wasn't going to get an abortion if everyone was walking properly. You compare that to any reason for any cause?

Originally posted by @eladarAccording to the Bible, "unique" human lives should, in fact, be killed under various circumstances, and your God is described as having personally ordered or conducted such killings on many occasions.

Originally posted by @kellyjayWell, I must say I am a bit confused. You cite your God as the main reason for why you oppose abortion, but you cannot cite any scripture to support that position, and your God is described in your holy book as personally performing abortions. How do you reconcile these contradictory positions?
No

answered one too. If there is anything to reconcile please bring it to my attention. If life is
not important on its own as I pointed out than it isn't at any stage of development. We are
told not to murder, if you want to justify the death of millions of children within their
mother's wombs, because of practice where God acts or does not, to keep the blood lines
pure up to you.

do not get to do that, we don't have the ability. If God allows you 80 years be thankful, you
could have ended up done at 2 days after life started. Unlike us He sets up the universe
by Himself without your input or mine. So if your last day is sleeping and passing after
along life great, if not it will end some day, some how, in some way regardless if we
think we should live on or not.
In that scripture it is God not a man or woman who ends that life, which is no different than
any other life ending event where God does it. In modern day abortions the babies are
torn apart by a man or woman, they could have their brains sucked out, a number of
different ways, God isn't doing any of them we are. That is a GREAT difference.
