That is if the woman decides not to have an abortion. She can give it to the father after birth.

However, if she wants to have an abortion then the father, if he is not married has no right to tell her not to have one. Is that right?

So a baby who was unlucky to conceived outside of wedlock does not have the same right to life as a baby conceived in wedlock whose father wants him or her to be born?

Frankly this law about only allowing married men to have a say about whether their baby gets to be born or not is ridiculous.

It is better to make abortion of all babies illegal.

They are unmarried. He has no say. He may as well forget his own words three months later he found another girl.

I hope you realize how misandric a statement that is

I merely stating the possibility the man find other girl. The reason why only husbands have a say.

A man whose woman pregnant with his child but does not want the woman, but want the child : no law can solve that.

He can ask her to marry him, then he has a say.
Otherwise, what if he forget five months later when the baby is born, he has a new girlfriend.
Sure, she still can giive it for adoption. But we are talking about giving power over womans body to a man who keep his options open.

That is an interesting way to encourage couples to not marry. Not sure why you would want to do that, though. They will still live together and have sex and babies.

If man & woman are serious in building a good family, they will be encouraged to get married.

If man & woman are trying to keep their options open, then they would be discouraged to marry.

It has little to do with abortion form with/ without husband signature

We are dusty Christ followers. I hope our bible is not as dusty.

I think that husband has the right to say something, because husband & wife give conjugal right to each other, even civilly.

And ofcourse biblically too as I quoted above

You have an unusual concept of what marriage is, and what it isn’t, then.
 
The context is: A spouse cares about how refusing to have relations for a long time might affect the other spouse. That seems like a reasonable concern that could come up, especially since there may be pressure in that time period (1st century) for a Christian to look to heaven and not things of the earth.

The context of 1 Corinth 7:4

Genesis 2
24 Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh

Mark 10
2 Some Pharisees came, and to test him they asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” 3 He answered them, “What did Moses command you?” 4 They said, “Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her.” 5 But Jesus said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart he wrote this commandment for you. 6 But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’ 7 ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife 8 and the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

There’s no reason to use that verse when you can just use the Bible to show the fetus has a right to life.
 
But how to establish such right? If you don’t feel like giving right to husband to sign/ not sign the form, then how is it become better to give strangers (the state/ judge/ anybody else) the right to say about a married woman & her fetus?

Don’t mention Bible quotes if you know they aren’t going to work then.

Giving the state the right to do this is pretty easy by treating similar to say child abuse since they bear similar qualities.

The fetus has no bodily autonomy yet. The fetus right is attached to the mother, because it is inside her.
