Well for a variety of reasons we find such moral absolutes are not supported by reality, such statements as " there is never a need for abortion" Well then there's the reality that by the 1900s, all states and the District of Columbia had enacted criminal abortion statues, yet during that century abortion was a crime 1867-1973, millions of abortions were performed. Reality shows clearly there was definitely a need for abortions and also shows that morality is absolutely relative, bows before necessity & human impulse which willed itself towards a world of unparalleled unregulated industrial expansion that led to the colonialism, conflicts, great depressions & wars of the 20th century. Protestant Germany was a poster child for this in the 19th century, they all were.

It should be mentioned once & for all that Egyptian Moses ---->did not exist, never existed & is a fable. The oldest prophets like Isaiah, no recorded writings are found till 130bce, so all that old prophecy business is pure nonsense anyways. Honestly, i don't know why you or solon even argue with the nims, there's absolutely no rationale whatsoever that an aetheist, agnostic or one that doesn't even care... cannot exist as high up in any moral universe as the so called believer. But being part of the old boy & tribal, priestly network & its aristocracy , certainly always paid. Then there's the protestant work ethic, the biblical dominion over the world, to set up the new Jersusalem which does work but we which we also see go a little bit insane in the industrialization of the 20th century.
