Waffles is speaking for Jesus now.
Too funny.
Not one word about abortion did Jesus ever say.
It is covered in the OT, however.
Jews fully understand it in the context of the Torah and have no issue with it. In fact it is the responsible thing to do in certain cases. An act of mercy. Mercy. If there's one thing we've learned "mercy" isn't even a glint in the mind of today's Republicans.
But some loud mouthed self-righteous moralizing "christians" think abortion is just horrible, terrible, immoral, awful and that they have the right to dictate in law what a woman can do, what other religions can do, what people can do.
Here's the thing: They're clueless as to their religious institutions stance of abortion for the previous decades, even millennium. They only know the "latest fad" about it being "bad." The reinvented cause that never existed before. The lie of a fetal heartbeat.
Abortion was bad in the Catholic Church prior to the 1970's because it was viewed as trying to eliminate and/or hide the sin of sexual impropriety; adultery, fornication, etc. Not because the fetus was "alive." Not because the fetus had some "right to life"
Then the "right" saw a political tool to exploit to get segregation back in place, to open "christian" schools, and to gain political power. This worked - because even though the Southern Baptists were never bothered by abortion, when they saw a way to use it they started preaching it as a "right to life" issue. Something they never, ever cared about and never believed before. And it spread.
It's all a lie.
