I am a christian and for me it is given that abortion should be allowed. All this talk about abortion is murder is as far as I am concerned just smoke screens from pro-lifers. Woman who honestly want to become a mother do sometimes miscarry. There are accidents that makes the woman lose the child. My thought is that you have very weak faith in God if you think that he don't takes step to deal with these situations.
If you agree to this...then why would abortion be different? Actually I can give a reason why it is different; the fetus is just a couple of cells in the beginning. How could the soul fold into something that is so far from the finished result? If abortion happens in that time period I honestly don't think that God need to do a thing, it just a fetus that is rejected. Yet even if it happens later I trust God to deal with the situation.
Yet the most important thing is not this, but rather that we should not judge. It beats me totally how pro-lifers can read the direct command to not judge in the bible and run away and do exactly this. The highest possible degree of hypocrisy.
If the pro-lifers took their responsibility as christians they should present their opinnion about the matter, but not try stop abortions or to silence the many christians that think abortion is acceptable.
There are many ways that people try to confuse the issue. Sure people should use protection so they don't need to do an abortion. Who can object to that? Yet I can't see that it changes the situation about abortion. The cause of the many abortions are people that are too shamed to speak about sexuality. It is not some media conspiracy that makes people have sexual urges, rather God invented us like that....and narrow minded people pro-lifers that can't stand to hear the word sex gave us the rate of abortions that we have today when they supress all talk about sex, nudity and proper protection. The devil probably totally dig the activities of the pro-lifers....
