Abortion is murder. Everyone has a chance at life. God knew you before you even entered the womb. The Book of Enoch on tablets tells us how evil abortion is and this was 3,000 years ago and probably even much older. Now everyone is sacradicing rheir children for convenience sake, because that's mostly what it is for.

Edit: Forget everything below this, your entire belief system is based on something someone you don’t know wrote 3,000 years ago. Evaluate what you want in this world.

I recently made a detailed post outlining my position. To directly argue what you have here: there is no place for ideals written by cults 2,000 years ago in complex moral dilemmas. Simple as that.

Also, I will never understand how ignorant you have to be to say that God loves everyone when he let’s so many be born into fates worse than Hell.

Are humans animals? No. We do things for convenience. Getting rped by a child of god isn’t very convenient, but it still happens. Making that inconvenient situation as convenient as possible includes terminating pregnancies created by rpe. Or I guess created by God in your case. Remember he is all knowing and all powerful, meaning he is fine with children being r*ped, people being tortured, single moms living in 1 bedroom apartments with 5 kids, etc. If he wasn’t, he would change it because he knows this stuff is going on and has the power to change it but he simply chooses not to. Come to think of it, god is a massive asshole.

To conclude, the idea of god and religion is a great way to promote and create upstanding moral beliefs, but in no way should religious text have any weight in intense moral dilemmas.

Read my most recent post you should be able to find through my profile.

Considering you deleted your profile, it's difficult to find this most recent post. And I know that you can't reply, so readers please don't think that what I say is flawless logic just because it's unopposed.

Your argument here is predicated on stuff in the Bible being wrong, and therefore any conclusion based on the Bible is wrong – not just that the argument is wrong, but the conclusion is wrong.

This argument proves too much. "Thou shalt not kill", but God is clearly a terrible person and the Bible contains cult ideals, therefore murder is great. This argument proves too much.

Currently, you're invoking (the Christian) God's hypocrisy to prove your point, but then denying God's existence when that supports your argument. Pick one.

And Christians follow teh New Testement above all. The old is basically a law book and the history of expullsion of teh chosen people.

That being said, no where in the New Testement can I find anything that permits murder.

God knew you before you even entered the womb. Does this not mean that the soul isn't created upon conception? We know by reason that the soul is intrinsically linked to the brain, so is the soul even there when the brain isn't?

Is it murder to prevent a conception? But what about immediately after conception? Cells have started dividing, but there isn't a brain or consciousness. Is stopping that murder? What if the embryo fails to implant?

(This isn't a criticism. You can tell that I disagree, but I'm mostly interested in your personal belief system.)
