Okay, what I’m saying here is this:Strongly disagree, where does it say specifically that killing is wrong? Everywhere in the bible.
God decided abortion is murder. Who decided killing people with guns is murder? It doesn’t say in the bible. But we know it’s murder.Okay, what I’m saying here is this:
We are the ones who decided that abortion = murder. We are the ones who interpreted scripture. Just because you decided based upon scripture does not mean that you are inherently correct about your inference.
You’re refusing to see clear Biblical evidence in front of you because you don’t want to be wrong.Show me the word “abortion” in the Bible. Because verses that do not explicitly mention something will be interpreted differently by every single denomination and thus hold no weight in this argument. None of them mention abortion. None of them. They say not to murder, and humans are the ones who have made the abortion connection based on other scriptural verses.
Not once is abortion mentioned, as I said.
14th Amendment which is what Roe vs Wade stands upon. That may not be the correct wording.So where in the constitution does it give women the right to an abortion?
Not. Once. Is. Abortion. Mentioned.You’re refusing to see clear Biblical evidence in front of you because you don’t want to be wrong.
Bible clearly mentions that babies are a person with a plan from God from the time they are in the womb.
Bible clearly mentions that killing is wrong.
Abortion ends the life of a baby in the womb.
Not too hard to connect the dots.
Not once are guns mentioned.Not. Once. Is. Abortion. Mentioned.
What am I wrong about in the statement that not once is abortion mentioned in the Bible?
We’re not discussing whether your interpretation is correct or not. I am telling you:
Not. Once. Is. Abortion. Mentioned.
Guns are a weapon that did not exist at the time of biblical writing. Abortion is a procedure that did exist at the time of biblical writing.God decided abortion is murder. Who decided killing people with guns is murder? It doesn’t say in the bible. But we know it’s murder.
Yet Yahweh can kill babies in the bible and no one bats an eye. What exactly did they do to deserve death. If we really want to dig into it why exactly would Yahweh cause miscarriages/spontaneous abortions? Why would a baby be born with cancer just to die in a few weeks or months causing more heartache for families?You’re refusing to see clear Biblical evidence in front of you because you don’t want to be wrong.

See my post above; that’s an illogical comparison to make.Not once are guns mentioned.
You are wrong in that “thou shall not kill” is very specifically mentioned. It also very specifically mentions that we are people from the time we are the womb. Therefore, while abortion is not mentioned by name, it’s clearly covered. There is nothing to interpret.Not. Once. Is. Abortion. Mentioned.

Why does anyone die at all? It’s not for man to decide, but God.Yet Yahweh can kill babies in the bible and no one bats an eye. What exactly did they do to deserve death.

Oh boy, you’re just… Not getting this.You are wrong in that “thou shall not kill” is very specifically mentioned. It also very specifically mentions that we are people from the time we are the womb. Therefore, while abortion is not mentioned by name, it’s clearly covered. There is nothing to interpret.
You my friend, are the one who’s “not getting it”.Oh boy, you’re just… Not getting this.
If there is nothing to interpret, I don’t think every single denomination would have so many different views on the matter.
Go ahead and keep making your argument against abortion over and over in each post you direct towards me, but I’m just going to continue saying that I am not discussing the validity of your argument, I’m discussing the fact that your interpretation is not gospel.
Something not being mentioned explicitly does not mean that it cannot be inferred. The Trinity is one such example.Not. Once. Is. Abortion. Mentioned.
Which shows that we need an interpreter.I’m discussing the fact that your interpretation is not gospel.
I have not mentioned my “interpretation” on this thread so I don’t see the relevancy of my interpretation when even the interpretations being expressed on here are irrelevant to my point.I’m assuming that you believe in the Trinity. Guess what. The Trinity is not mentioned in the bible.
Is yours?
Okay.You my friend, are the one who’s “not getting it”.
Please reread that post. I decided that it was lacking charity, my apologies for that, and rewrote it heavily. My point with interpretation is that we need an interpreter for scripture. As a Catholic, the Church is that interpreter.I have not mentioned my “interpretation” on this thread so I don’t see the relevancy of my interpretation when even the interpretations being expressed on here are irrelevant to my point.
I agree that an interpreter is needed, but I have not yet fully come to the conclusion on whether or not the Catholic Church is that interpreter or not. As you can see, I am not Catholic, though I am researching heavily.Please reread that post. I decided that it was lacking charity, my apologies for that, and rewrote it heavily.

I don’t think that it is much of a stretch to apply the law for born human beings to unborn human beings.
Abortion is evil, and the catholic church is the interpreter.I agree that an interpreter is needed, but I have not yet fully come to the conclusion on whether or not the Catholic Church is that interpreter or not. As you can see, I am not Catholic, though I am researching heavily.
