I see you've come out as one who views abortion as infanticide/murder. I presume therefore that you're opposed to it. Good to see you take a position on this.

Now as to why our Christian culture kills so many infants, it's because many people in our society have been educated to believe it's okay to do so and have fervently fought to maintain abortions. I think you know it's not Christian influence that has been pushing this.

I think you also know it's not just our Christian culture that kills innocent infants. For example, India's Hindu culture kills so many infants (mostly females) that gender ratios are becoming unbalanced in that country. Similarly, China's atheist/Buddhist/Confucian culture actually legally requires many abortions. And again, in that culture, abortions are preferentially done to females, leading to unbalanced gender ratios.

I have to say I doubt the sincerity of your position. I don't think you're really hostile to Christianity because it isn't sufficiently anti-abortion.
