<<Well, this is clearly just more leftist dishonesty. You are not accountable to any God worth anything that he would countenance your literal support of the plain murder of an innocent human being. This religion you claim is just empty atheism– and you know it.>>
Well then i guess the Jews are atheists too. From religioustolerance.org:
Abortion-related passages in the Hebrew Scriptures & Talmud:
The Babylonian Talmud Yevamot 69b states that: "the embryo is considered to be mere water until the fortieth day." Afterwards, it is considered subhuman until it is born.
"Rashi, the great 12th century commentator on the Bible and Talmud, states clearly of the fetus 'lav nefesh hu--it is not a person.' The Talmud contains the expression 'ubar yerech imo--the fetus is as the thigh of its mother,' i.e., the fetus is deemed to be part and parcel of the pregnant woman's body." 1 This is grounded in Exodus 21:22. That biblical passage outlines the Mosaic law in a case where a man is responsible for causing a woman's miscarriage, which kills the fetus If the woman survives, then the perpetrator has to pay a fine to the woman's husband. If the woman dies, then the perpetrator is also killed. This indicates that the fetus has value, but does not have the status of a person.
<<When government forces children to parrot the evolution crap they must parrot in the schools>>
Well the Pope concedes the validity of evolution, so you might as well argue that the state promotes Catholicism instead of atheism.
The world went though this once already with Copernicus, Galileo, the Pope and whether or not the Earth revolved around the sun.
Like life on Earth, religion evolves.
