Feticide: A discussion/thought experiment

In the old testament intentionally causing a woman to miscarry is punishable only by a small fine, whereas actual murder is punishable by death. Why do you rebel against your god in this manner?

We will be held accountable to the NT.
Matthew 5:7
7 "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
Abortion is murder.

No, dollarbill, this is what "judging" means:
verb (used with object)
6.
to pass legal judgment on; pass sentence on (a person): The court judged him guilty.
7.
to hear evidence or legal arguments in (a case) in order to pass judgment; adjudicate; try: The Supreme Court is judging that case.
8.
to form a judgment or opinion of; decide upon critically: You can't judge a book by its cover.
9.
to decide or settle authoritatively; adjudge: The censor judged the book obscene and forbade its sale.
10.
to infer, think, or hold as an opinion; conclude about or assess: He judged her to be correct.

No, it isn't. Just stop already. We've already heard the pro-life movement scream its hysterical "Abortion is murder! Abortion is murder" mantra, and we still think it's garbage. You aren't getting anywhere.

Maybe you didn't see what I said. God doesn't care about the unborn. In the OT, killing them will get you a fine. Unborn babies DO NOT MATTER to your god

You just called the unborn "babies". You are correct! They are certainly babies. But you are also wrong. He does care.

Because conservative Christians descend into absolute hysterics at the idea of female sexuality and female autonomy.

Descend? How is defending the lives of totally helpless babies descending?

Because we all realize that they really couldn't care less about the babies. Once those babies are born, conservatives no longer care anything about them. It's liberals (who are usually pro-choice) who advocate things like protecting the environment and health care reform.
And they aren't babies.
This is a baby.
This is not a baby.

No we do not all realize that.
I'm a conservative and I care.
The Nihilist said they are babies.
And that's your opinion. It's better to be merciful. We must all stand before God on Judgment Day.This is a baby.
This is not a baby.

Well, I'm I was able to inform you of this, then.
That places you in a distinct minority.
And he was wrong. Anything else?
That is why I am merciful towards women and don't try to legislate control over their uteruses. The world has endured enough violent patriarchy already.

I was aware of your opinion already.
I only have to answer for myself on Judgment Day.
I believe he was correct.
Slaughtering the unborn is not being merciful and will be dealt with sternly on Judgment Day.
Matthew 13:49-50
49 "So it will be at the end of the age; the angels will come forth and take out the wicked from among the righteous, 50 and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
