Heck, if it was OK with God, who am I or anyone else on this thread to question Him? You included!!!!!
Back to the topic, please....
I question Him.... but he doesn't answer.
Only silence.
States cannot just flat out prohibit abortion, any more than they can 'prohibit' other self imposed acts. You own your body, not the state.
the problem with that line of reasoning is that a ZEF is not part of the woman's body. It is another human being with natural rights.
Abortion is not a victimless act. It is the killing of a human being. As such, it is only moral under a few circumstances. Not wanting to care for it is not one of these.

You're not listening. or seeking. "Seek and you WILL find" the answers.
How does one go about "not listenting" to an all-powerful benevolent God who wants to get their attention?
You sit at home, and worry. while I preserve your ungrateful freedoms.

Gurgling noises are what babys that survive an abortion do when Mr Abortion Doctor drowns them to finish the job.
The USSC invented a right to murder out of thin air, your compartmentalizing aside.
Very simple. The term "pro-abortion" was considered to be very politically incorrect.
I'm sure that "pro choice" was focus grouped to exhaustion.
But one thing is for sure; they are not pro-choice. They are pro-abortion.
You and Ted Bundy, freak.
tpaine sez-----"killing people who are an inconvenience is my Constitutional Right". What a patriot you are.
Go take a look at post #35, evil one.
You know what I say? I say anybody that looks at post #35 and calls it choice is more than just a coward, they are somebody who deliberately choose evil. Beyond any shadow of a reasonable doubt.
