Abortion is undoubtedly a sin.
Not to talk about or quote any bible passage, It is written in Biology textbooks that; "The best method or way to prevent unwanted pregnancy was (and is still is) ABSTINENCE"
Abstinence simply means; not doing it at all.
So, if you do not abstain from sex,. That simply implies that you are an up and coming mother.
Abortion is simply murder, anyone who commits murder is guilty of death also.
Lastly, abortion is a sin and the wages of sin is death.

Antichristus:


Your response presented in syllogistic fashion lured me to respond, giving its apparent rather not real logic which I intend to interrogate. However, the reference to a text which derives from Ancient Mesopotamian Folklore is intriguing because on all accounts you're alluding to an unverifiable truth-claim. That said, the philosophical understanding of personhood is contingent on two things: 'thought' and 'action'. This implies that a person lost their personhood if they're incapable of: (a) thinking; and (b) acting. On this account, abortion, like euthanasia is morally permissible. To this end, my counterargument, syllogistically presented, goes thus:

Premise #1: Personhood is contingent on 'thought' and 'action';
Premise #2: A feotus is incapable of thinking and acting;
Premise #3: A feotus, lacking the ability and the capacity to think and act is not yet a person.
Conclusion: Therefore, it is morally permissible to terminate a feotus.


Further to the above, there are other circumstantial cases which makes abortion morally permissible. These include: serious feotal abnormality or deformity; pregnancy resulting from incest and/or rape; and, where the woman risks losing her life due to the pregnancy.

Are u saying that someone that is completely mad or is suffering from total amnesia is not worthy to be considered a human being?
Secondly can a one day old baby think ?

The real question should be - why are religious groups so preoccupied with increasing the human population and human suffering?

Is it because they know that is the bedrock upon which religious devotion exists?
Go and present your self to ritualists so that they will kill you and help us reduce the world population

For a non -christian, abortion is a matter of debate.

But for Christians, Who went to church today to lift up their so -called holy hands, I honestly don't see the debate here.

The bible is clear.

How can any who takes the bible as its supreme guide argue about the morality of abortion? Especially after reading the below.

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations."

Jeremiah 1:15.

Why should you allow an unwanted pregnancy to happen in the first place. It's a sin against your body. If you're not ready to get pregnant,abstain or use protection and don't be stup1d by making such a mistake.

not every unwanted pregnancy is a result of carelessness.

What about rape victims
Have you considered them

It is a sin, i'm surprised we still have gals still aborting, there is male and female condom, and if the useless guy dont want to use protection and want to pour in, use postinor immediately, but in all abstinence is the best.

[quote author=Christie06 post=66928823]Yes. Abortion is a sin. But medically, there's something called Therapeutic Abortion and it's done to avoid the risk of substantial harm to the mother or in cases of fetal unviability....in such situation, I won't consider Abortion a sin.

So what about when an expectant mother's life is at risk from the pregnancy? Or the lady was raped? Or when she's mentally unstable?

Abortion is multifaceted and so are the solutions.

@Post, No.

Re: Is Abortion A Sin? by majatech(m): 7:33pm On Apr 22, 2018
I once aborted for my girl friend and also her friend twice,although am not responsible,long later I was reading about father tansi's book that I saw in friend's house when I slept off whilst reading, I saw my self and others lining up for judgement with our dossier containing our earthly deeds,I was shown grace and I woke up,what baffles me most is that those abortions outweighed any other sins,it was written in capital letters, so pple,abortion is second or third most gravely sin one can commit, hell fire is the gift.

for sure
if the sex had consent from parties them they should be ready for the consequences...
the only twisted situation is in cases of rape and related conditions... of that I can't say

but its never right to take a child's life whether filly formed or not.. that's why contraceptives(condoms and pre-abortion pills) are sinful too
Ehn, oga U mean am? Contraceptives too?
