    You can go to China and harvest unborn babies. Y’all share the same ideals.

    Nobody kills live babies. They kill fetuses, which are FAR from persons. As for the "women forced to carry dead" that's one of the ramifications of laws that ban abortions, for the sake of non-persons, because providers are frightened away from performing necessary procedures.

    Republicans: save the fetus, by all means, but the baby can just rot in hunger, disease, and poverty for all we care. And your rapist impregnator? Well, he can smirk about your condition for the rest of his life.

    well not that far really. even by your standards they are sometimes literally one second from being persons. one second.

    First off, it’s not a black and white issue. Health risks are real and should be accounted for in the laws.

    Secondly… How long is it a fetus before it’s a baby? If a doctor says “we need to take this fetus early and turn it into a baby with our magic wand” and the mother says “no, just kill it and vacuum it out”, that’s not killing a baby? Or is it a fetus?

    And lastly…. You’re saying we should kill babies in the womb so they don’t starve? So like “well I don’t wanna feed this little shit, so cut it up and suck it out”. I’m not understanding what you’re so mad about

    Religious nutjobs don't give a damn about saving babies.... it's all about self. They just think they're winning brownie points with the Big Boss into heaven. But actually caring for the baby? In a pig's eye. Once that baby is born those same wingnuts have very little interest in voting for daycare, infant healthcare, pre-K, anti-poverty programs, or even sensible measures that would keep children safe from mass-slaughters in schools.

    Which is all quite ironic, because what does their Ancient Book by Ignorant Goatherders say about abortion?

    - The ABBIG never outlaws abortion, which is quite telling when one learns that abortion was common as far back as 1500 BC, and that there were laws that rendered abortion illegal only if the husband does not agree to it. Seems that if abortion was so important God would have expressly forbidden it in his "good book".

    But what do we actually see in the book?

    - Exodus 21:22-25. The fetus is not valued as human life. If somebody injures a pregnant woman and causes a miscarriage, the attackers must merely pay a fine demanded by her husband. If SHE dies, though, the attacker is to be executed.
    - Ecclesiastes 6:3-5: It is better for a person to die from miscarriage than to later live an unhappy life.
    - Numbers 3:39-40: Even born babies are not people enough in God's eyes to be counted within his census.
    - Genesis 2:7: Man doesn't possess a soul until he takes a breath.
    - Numbers 5:27: A man who suspects his wife of cheating with another man can take her to a priest for an induced miscarriage.

    Aside from those things, if Jesus actually existed (which I doubt) he was a Jew. What do Jews say about abortion bans? They say it's a violation of their human and religious rights because a woman has dominion over her own body.

    why must you always imagine things and read minds?

    they do care and thats why they are pro-life.

    no, they just favor different strategies than you for reducing poverty, etc. and a fairly strong argument can be made for free market solutions to poverty over govt authoritarianism. so for example, when a conservative favors drilling for oil, this means, for example, production of products for babies is cheaper, and driving to get them is cheaper. then there are fewer biden baby formula shortages.
