Does God forbid abortion?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(In the bible, God frequently kills children, babies, fetuses...)


"Samar'ia shall bear her guilt, because she has rebelled against her God; they shall fall by the sword, their little ones shall be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women ripped open." ..........Hosea 13:16

"...Men'ahem sacked Tappuah and all who were in it and its territory from Tirzah on; because they did not open it to him, therefore he sacked it, and ripped up all the women in it who were with child." ..........2 Kings 15:16

"Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling..." (God speaking through Samuel). ...........1 Samuel 15:3

"And he (Elisha) went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them." ..........2 Kings 2:23

Consider these verses: In them we learn that a fetus is not a human being!
"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, eye for eye, tooth for tooth."
.............Exodus 21:22-25 (If a fetus dies as the result of a fight, the man who caused the termination of the pregnancy is fined. BUT if the woman dies, the man is put to death! Therefore, according to the bible, a fetus is not equal to a human life.)
