What the Bible says about Abortion
- Abortion is not murder. A fetus is not considered a human life.
- If men strive, and hurt a woman with child, so that her fruit depart from her, and yet no mischief follow: he shall be surely punished, according as the woman's husband will lay upon him; and he shall pay as the judges determine. And if any mischief follow, then thou shalt give life for life. --Exodus 21:22-23
- The Bible places no value on fetuses or infants less than one month old.
- And if it be from a month old even unto five years old, then thy estimation shall be of the male five shekels of silver, and for the female thy estimation shall be three shekels of silver. -- Leviticus 27:6
- Fetuses and infants less than one month old are not considered persons.
- Number the children of Levi after the house of their fathers, by their families: every male from a month old and upward shalt thou number them. And Moses numbered them according to the word of the LORD. -- Numbers 3:15-16
- God approves of killing fetuses.
- And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? ... Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. -- Numbers 31:15-17
(Some of the non-virgin women must have been pregnant. They would have been killed along with their unborn fetuses.) - Give them, O LORD: what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts. -- Hosea 9:14
- Yea, though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of their womb. -- Hosea 9:16
- Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up. -- Hosea 13:16
- God sometimes kills newborn babies to punish their parents.
- Because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die. -- 2 Samuel 12:14
- God sometimes causes abortions by cursing unfaithful wives.
- The priest shall say unto the woman, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell. And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen. ...
And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people. And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed. -- Numbers 5:21-21, 27-28
- God's law requires the execution (by burning to death) of pregnant women.
- Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt. -- Genesis 38:24
Infanticide:
Abortion:
The Biblical God is NOT pro-life, he advocates
child murder, infanticide, child abuse and abortion:
I see so many retarded ass
Christians talking about abortion being a crime against God. It’s not a wonder
that they are hard pressed to find a conclusive biblical statement to
corroborate their position. In their determination to control women they have
been forced to rely on exceedingly weak sections such as “thou shall not kill”,”I kneweth thou in the womb” and their favorite:
“When men strive together, and hurt a woman with child, so that there is a
miscarriage, and yet no harm follows, the one who hurt her shall be fined,
according as the woman’s husband shall lay upon; and he shall pay as the judges
determine. If any harm follows, then you shall give life for life, eye for eye,
tooth for tooth...“--Exodus 21:22-24 The problem here is that the man who injures a pregnant woman
in the process, shall repay her according to the degree of injury inflicted on
her, not the fetus. I am often dumbfounded at how Christians can assume that
abortion is wrong judging by these feeble verses when the Bible clearly
advocates infanticide and many other atrocities against children and pregnant
women. I can no longer allow such ignorance of the Bible and deem it necessary
to expose the true agenda. I am tired of the many young Christians who are
brainwashed by their clergy. They are only taught the “love and mercy” parts of
the Bible and never bother to read what is not so openly preached . The Church
thrives off of speaking in half truths and concealing their blood soaked robes.
Of course my job as preacher of an Atheist parish is to give a sermon about
those things that the Bible TRUTHFULLY commands. Here they are, god’s views on
the unborn, the actions of righteous men” and god’s commands of infanticide and
child abuse: (note-There are Torah verses in this list but I will not attack the
Jewish faith for being pro-life since they are not rampant advocates of the
matter.)
Hosea 9:11-16 Hosea prays
for God’s intervention. “Ephraim shall bring forth his children to the
murderer. Give them, 0 Lord: what wilt thou give? Give them a miscarrying womb
and dry breasts. . .Ephraim is smitten, their root is dried up, they shall bear
no fruit: yea though they bring forth, yet will I slay even the beloved fruit of
their womb.” Clearly Hosea desires that the people of Ephraim can no longer
have children. God of course obeys by making all their unborn children
miscarry. Is not terminating a pregnancy unnaturally “abortion”?
Numbers 5:11-21 The
description of a bizarre, brutal and abusive ritual to be performed on a wife
SUSPECTED of adultery. This is considered to be an induced abortion to rid a
woman of another man’s child.
Numbers 31:17 (Moses) “Now
therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every women that hath
known man by lying with him.” In other words: women that might be pregnant,
which clearly is abortion for the fetus.
Hosea 13:16 God promises to
dash to pieces the infants of Samaria and the “their women with child shall be
ripped up”. Once again this god kills the unborn, including their pregnant
mothers.
2 Kings 15:16 God allows the
pregnant women of Tappuah (aka Tiphsah) to be “ripped open”. And the Christians have the
audacity to say god is pro-life. How and the hell is it that Christians can read
passages where God allows pregnant women to be murdered, yet still claim
abortion is wrong?
1 Samuel 15:3 God commands the
death of helpless "suckling" infants. This literally means that the children
god killed were still nursing.
Psalms 135:8 & 136:10 Here god
is praised for slaughtering little babies.
Psalms 137:9 Here god commands
that infants should be “dashed upon the rocks”.
The murdering of children:
Leviticus 20:9 “For every one
that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath
cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.”
Judges 11:30-40 Jephthah killed
his young daughter (his only child) by burning her alive as a burnt sacrifice to
the lord for he commanded it.
Psalms 137:8-9 Prayer/song of
vengeance “0 daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be
that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and
dasheth thy little ones against the stones.”
2 Kings 6:28-29 “And the king
said unto her, What aileth thee? And she answered, This woman said unto me,
Give thy son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow. So we
boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy
son, that we may eat him: and she hath hid her son.”
Deuteronomy 21:18-21 “If a man
have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father,
or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not
hearken unto them: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and
bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; And
they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and
rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. And
all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou
put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.”
Judges 19:24-29 “Behold, here
is my daughter a maiden, and his concubine; them I will bring out now, and
humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you: but unto this man
do not so vile a thing. But the men would not hearken to him: so the man took
his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her, and abused
her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let
her go. Then came the woman in the dawning of the day, and fell down at the door
of the man’s house where her lord was, till it was light. And her lord rose up
in the morning, and opened the doors of the house, and went out to go his way:
and behold, the woman his concubine was fallen down at the door of the house,
and her hands were upon the threshold. And he said unto her, Up, and let us be
going. But none answered. Then the man took her up upon an ass, and the man
rose up, and gat him unto his place. And when he was come into his house, he
took a knife, and laid hold on his concubine, and divided her, together with her
bones, into twelve pieces, and sent her into all the coasts of Israel.” To put
it very bluntly this poor, young lady was murdered by her mate for being
raped.
Exodus 12:29 God killed,
intentionally, every first-born child of every family in Egypt, simply because
he was upset at the Pharaoh. And god caused the Pharaoh’s actions in the first
place. Since when is it appropriate to murder children for their ruler’s forced
action?
Exodus 20:9-10 God commands
death for cursing out ones parents Joshua 8 God commanded the deaths of 12,000
men, women, and children of Ai. They were all slain in the ambush that was
planned by god.
2 Kings 2:23-24 The prophet
Elisha, was being picked on by some young boys from the city because of his bald
head. The prophet turned around and cursed them in the Lords name. Then, two
female bears came out of the woods and killed forty-two of them. You would
think that God could understand that sometimes the youthful make childish jokes.
Calling someone “bald head” is far from being worthy of death.
Leviticus 26:30 “And ye shall
eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.”
1 Samuel 15:11-18 God repents
of having made Saul king since Saul refused to carry out God’s commandments
(i.e., Saul refused to murder all the innocent women and children.) At least
god realizes what an immoral, murderous pig he is on this one.
I Kings 16:34 Laying the
foundation for a city using your firstborn child and using your youngest son to
set up the gates.
Isaiah 13:15-18 If God can find
you, he will “thrust you through,” smash your children “to pieces” before your
eyes, and rape your wife.
Jeremiah 11:22-23 God will kill
the young men in war and starve their children to death.
Jeremiah 19:7-9 God will make
parents eat their own children, and friends eat each other.
Lamentations 2:20-22 God gets
angry and mercilessly torments and kills everyone, young and old. He even
causes women to eat their children.
Child abuse:
Genesis 22:9 & 10 “And they
came to the place which God had told him of and Abraham built an altar there,
and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar
upon the wood. And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay
his son.” It matters not that god let Abraham get out of murdering Isaac. To put
a knife up to your son’s throat is child abuse.
I Kings 3:24-25 “And the
king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king. And the
king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to
the other." This test was of course given to see who the real mother of the child
was. Christians view this king as a wise man. I look upon his suggestion with
far more revulsion then I give accredit to Susan Smith.
Proverbs 13:24, 19:18, 22:15,
23:13-14 & 29:15 God commands repeatedly that you beat your children.
Matthew 19:29 If you really
loved Jesus then he insists that you abandon your wife and children for him.
Only that way will he allow you to go to heaven. (That is if you meet his other
hefty requirements, don’t slip through the loopholes, and ignore the
contradictions.)
Mark 7:9 Jesus criticizes the
Jews for not killing their disobedient children according to Old Testament law.
In conclusion I shall end
this list with a verse that should keep the pro lifers in check. It is Romans
13: 1-7
“Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is
no authority except that which god has established. The authorities that exist
have been established by god. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority
is rebelling against what god has instituted, and those who do so will bring
judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but
those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority?
Then do what is right and he shall commend you. For he is god’s servant to do
you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for
nothing. He is god’s servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the
wrongdoer. There fore it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only
because of possible punishment but also because of conscience.
This is also why you pay
taxes, for the authorities are god’s servants, who give their full time to
governing. Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes, if
revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.”
Clearly it is the job of
Christians to obey the laws, and the laws of this country clearly state that
abortion is legal. So too should Christians respect and honor that law. God
commands them to NOT disobey, which entails attempting to get the law
overturned. If god wanted abortion to be illegal he wouldn’t have appointed
authorities to make it legal.
