<< ... that the vast majority of humans throughout history have been Godless. >>

Is this God's will, or a mistake in the basic design of mankind?

<< I do not believe God guides our hands to abort. >>

He certainly doesn't guide our hands or hearts NOT to abort.

<< It is on you to prove He is for you, since you by your actions and belief first declare abortion acceptable and even sanctioned by God. >>

If God can effect the outcome of a football game, or who survives an airplane crash, He certainly can effect the outcome of an abortion.

<< Even so, that abortion results in gain for its victim provides us no logical basis to assume it is good and that we, in committing the abortion, have done good. >>

If we don't abort, and the person lives, and messes up on the rules, and doesn't get to Heaven, then we have done that fetus great harm by not aborting.

<< The rapist should not be honoured nevertheless. He should still die. >>

Finally we both believe in some sort of abortion, and that mankind has the power and mandate to end a human life, whether in the womb, or morfed into an adult of the species.
