Well,in Judaism it is stated that abortion is acceptable when the mother's life is in danger,but remember,Judaism is all about life. We are G-d’s partners in Tikkun Olam,or repairing the world. I know it's a little off topic but it does have some relevance. Saving one life is equivalent to saving the entire world is also a very important tenet of Judaism,so it's not as though we advocate the idea of abortion.

That is all quite interesting and thank you for sharing the faith perspective but you did not answer any of my questions.

“The expression tikkun olam is used in the Mishnah to indicate that a practice should be followed not because it is required by Biblical law, but because it helps avoid social chaos.”

Does this say your pro abortion stance is non-biblical social engineering?
Or am I misreading it?
