My thoughts are that abortion is the shedding of innocent blood and from reading scripture we know that God hates the shedding of innocent blood.
As for the argument about God giving the people the right to choose and who are we to take away someone's right to choose, well then by that logic, who are we to take away someone's right to choose to steal, murder, etc?
God may have given us the right to choose but He also gave us the right to enact the rule of law, to keep moral order and to decree consequence upon someone who harms another human being.
We are not taking away the right to choose by decreeing it unlawful. We are adding lawful consequence. The person is still free to break the law as they they are in other crimes such us murder and theft. There are just consequences for it.
Just because we cannot see that tiny human, it makes them no less human. For the scripture tells us that God knitted us together in the secret place of the womb. That we are wonderfully and fearfully made. Created for a purpose.
Who are we to allow another human's purpose to be coldly stripped from them on another person's whim?
Would we do this with any other murder? Say it's their choice and who are we to intervene?
As for the argument on having the right to kill a human conceived in rape, why should rape (one horrible crime) justify the shedding of innocent blood (another horrible crime)?
Not to mention the secondary emotional suffering the victim now goes through, having made an emotionally charged, rash decision to kill an innocent part of her own heritage and later being haunted by a decision that cannot be undone.
Finally, I would ask if it's justifiable for the rape victim to be able to kill her rapist? Why or why not?
If it's not justifiable for her to murder the rapist who is not innocent, then how much less justifiable it is for her to murder the child, who is innocent!
