The bible is against abortion. So a pro-choice position can not be by faith. How can sending babies back to God be even remotely faithful?
Look, no matter what your justification is, here is the fact, Exodus 20:13 - "Thou shalt not murder". In your words Incor: " in my faith view i can see abortion more along the lines of euthanasia, to asleep, or an offering unto eternal life. murder is more along the lines of evil malice."
You seem to use the word faith recklessly as though because you have faith in this and can find one verse that says it is better not to be born in the world, which if read in context is only to emphasize the wickedness of this world and sin, that somehow makes it okay to ignore the countless verses in the bible about killing.
Regardless of how you want the think murderight be, and how you would like to not classify abortion as killing, here are the facts: the bible says as quoted above, do not murder. And according to the official definition of murder, it is the premeditated killing of a human being by a human being, with or without malice. Reality check, that is exactly what abortion is. Period.
The wonderful thing about the bible is that it proves itself. Don't use theory or logic to prove the bible. Use the bible to prove the bible. If you read a verse, such as the one in ecclisiastes, that you think means it is better to die in innocence than experience the corrupt world, then you need to make sure the rest of the bible Supports that claim. By your theory, pharaoh was doing the israelites a favor by throwing their babies in the river and sending them to heaven.
Don't sit at home and watch the news in disgust as a mother is arrested for brutally drowning her 2 year old and turn around and encourage a mother to kill her 2 month old fetus. It is disturbing, and extremely hypocritical.
If we teach our children that killing is OK as long as they go to heaven, and even worse that we are doing them a favor, then you are pushing them further from the love of Christ my friend.
incor said:one last thing if this wasnt really noticed.
eccl.7:1..better... the day of death than the day of ones birth.
in this life issue(abortion), simplified: better death(abortion) than birth.
long life thru evil earth or short life in womb. either way its true.-better.
in my faith view i can see abortion more along the lines of euthanasia, to asleep, or an offering to God for its better. murder is more along the lines of evil malice.
IF U REALY CARE MORE ABT HEAVEN than life in an evil world, it shud b a no brainer.
but thats ur conscience & perspective. i agree w/king solomon. eccl 4:3, 7:1
