The Ten Commandments are very clear, “Thou shalt not kill.”

Unless I am mistaken, EVERY time a woman in the Bible is pregnant, the baby is referred to as a baby or child, the baby is NEVER called a “fetus” or “embryo” or “clump of cells” or whatever else the left would like us to believe.

"Fetus" is simply the Latin for "child".

Deliberate obfuscation.

Of course the texts include symbolic, analogous and allegorical references. A chapter after the 10 commandments are revealed the OT includes the description of the penalty for causing the death of a pregnant woman's kid. It uses, for example, both "child" and "fruit" to describe the unborn victim.

Other words are used elsewhere, but the subject is:

ALWAYS alive.

And NEVER a choice.
