If it is a “member” of the species homo sapiens then you’re correct. Since I hold to the original Hebrew teaching that one does not join the human race until one’s immortal soul enters the mortal body with its first intake of breath (the original meaning of the word “spirit” is “breath,” hence “inspiration” means “intake of breath,” I don’t view abortion as “aggression” any more than a hysterectomy would be. A fetus is living tissue but has no humanity until a soul enters it.

You're not only pathetic, you're a moron as well.

If the baby in the womb is not a member of the species homo sapiens, what is it? A kangaroo? Moreover, Talmud or no Talmud the baby is in fact a member of the species homo sapiens and natural rights apply to all, not just those who have decided when God ensouls us. Of course God had a slightly different opinion since He stated quite clearly that HE knew us when we were in the womb. But that's neither here nor there.

Look I have no patience for pro abortion libertarians no matter what utilitarian or religious view they use to justify the murder of human babies in the womb.

I've heard it all before. You, like so many other pro abortion libertarians, are guilty of hypocrisy at it's worst. Liberty for me and none for the weakest among us.

Congratulations.

Pure garbage.

You’ve distorted the Talmudic teachings to try to justify your amoral conclusion.

Pathetic, just like your defense of other immoral practices.

Did you watch the movie someone linked for you?

or are you too self-absorbed with your own propaganda to consider an opposing viewpoint.
