Banning Abortions is Unbiblical
In case I still have US-based Christian followers/contacts here… Via ProgressiveChristianity.org at Facebook:
“And to put a finer point on it, fetuses were seen as property—not human beings—until they were born (Exodus 21:22-25). Since life was so precarious in the ancient world, many cultures waited until the naming ceremony (referenced in Luke 2) or even until an infant had survived its first year of life before they considered it to be fully alive. Simply put, the Bible defines life as starting later than we typically view it today, not earlier.”
Via Co-Executive Director Rev. Dr. Caleb J Lines.
Nevermind forcing women to risk ectopic pregnancies, forcing rape victims including underage girls to risk bringing pregnancy to term (including risking the girls' very lives), potentially banning in-vitro fertilization, banning birth-control pills, for all US citizens regardless of religious creed or personal beliefs, and so on and so forth.
