Re: Politics and the Church
Just to let all know why I asked the "living soul" question.
In post 5656, Awareness states that fetuses in the first have the neural system of a shrimp and can't speak or speak in the first 8 to 10 weeks. That verse came to me after I read it. I believe that it's a human life, but in its most rudimentary form. There are situations where abortions may be performed such as health of the mom, incest, rape (even though there are testimonies of those whose moms decided to carry full term).
As far as I know, the Bible doesn't mention terminating pregnancies, but it does say you shall not kill. So that would mean terminating a human life, no matter what stage its in.
Certainly, with wanting to allow late abortions, it's has clearly come to the point to the point of murder.
