Nice quote. Does not mention abortion. Originally Posted by Kingdom_of_God God gave us free will.
Yup. Does not address my contention. God sends us to hell.
If a mugger puts a gun to your head and says "Give me your wallet or die", and you choose to not give him your wallet and he shoots you, did he kill you, or did you choose to die? |

Genesis 1:28 says to REPLENISH the earth and FILL it up and NOT have abortions... Kinda common sense, don't ya think?
You chose to die because surely you knew he would kill you... |

lol, that's the best you have about abortions? By your interpretation, contraception, masturbation, ANY method which prevents babies being conceived and born is wrong? Originally Posted by Kingdom_of_God You chose to die because surely you knew he would kill you...
Great, so you would be in favour of letting that mugger go free? After all, he didn't kill anyone...the guy getting mugged killed himself, right? |

Nope I am a busy guy... what questions are too hard?
That analogy further proves my point - say if I let that muggler go with my wallet - and he steals everyones, let's apply that to God, soon enough God will get everyones soul and people go to heaven! (I hope this makes sense) |

That analogy destroys your point. Unless you say that a mugger who kills people when they don't give him their wallet is perfectly acceptable, and you would happily let him go...which I doubt you would say. |

Heck, abstinence prevents babies from being conceived.
Now, me, I'd say we've already fulfilled the "be fruitful and multiply" requirement in spades... | | |
