There is nothing in the Bible that states abortion in the first trimester is illegal. That is because God has not given the lump of cells its Soul. After the first trimester, all the limbs are visible and at that point I agree that all abortion is morally illegal.
This is the best solution. Why do you ask?
Well, during the first trimester, the fetus has a status on par with a womans hair and nails. If she is allowed to clip off her nails and hair. Then she should be allowed to clip off a lump of cells that she does not want.
This is respecting basic civil and individual rights. These are the rights the Nation was founded on. These are fundamental and inviolable rights that No one has the authority or right to take away.
Now after the first trimester. The fetus becomes viable. Then one can argue that the woman has now lost the right to abort.
If a woman can not make up her mind to abort within the first trimester. Then she loses the right to abort after the first trimester. And that includes all abortions except when the mothers life, an individual already living, is in danger.
The above falls nicely and takes care of both religious doctrine and inviduals rights.
But we all know this middle ground will never happen. The powers that run everything want this topic to draw itself out. This is a nice and juicy subject that removes attention to the fact that they are raping the nation into the ground.
Quote from vhehn:
i posted this on the last abortion thread. its worth repeating:
most people who are antiabortion from conception claim that they believe god says abortion is sin. here are a couple of points to ponder:
1. in the bible life does not begin at conception. it begins with the first breath. this is backed up by this verse.
Genesis 2:7, God âbreathed into [Adamâs] nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being.â
According to this verse, life doesnât begin until the first breath is taken; therefore, conception does not mark the beginning of a childâs life, and therefore early stage abortion cannot be considered committing a murder.
2. there are verses in the bible indicating that god is not against abortion. abortion is only mentioned twice in the Bible, once in Exodus and again in Numbers. The passage from Exodus simply offers further support for the idea that abortion is not to be considered murder. However, the section from Numbers provides a situation in which abortion is actually encouraged. In Numbers 5:11-31, it is said that âif a husband suspects his wife is pregnant by another man, the âhusband shall bring his wife to the priest,â who shall mix a drink intended to make her confess or be threatened with termination of her pregnancy if she has been unfaithful to her husband.â
