Abortion: Why abortion is bad for women (and benefits men)

Abortion is a hot-button topic. Most on the far-left support abortion as a woman's right. Most women don't know what an abortion entails, and swear by it as a form of "empowerment". However, if a woman only knew what an abortion is, she wouldn't get one.

Abortion is banned in the Bible in the Ten Commandments. See Exodus 20:13 KJV:

Thou shalt not kill.

The Greek root word repeating the Sixth Commandment is φονος (Latin: phonos) and refer to, in context, any death apart from natural death, with this including abortion. This word lifts up the context on the issue of taking human life, and bans abortion. Abortion was also banned in the Old Testament. Abortion in the biblical context consisted of an herbal tea that induced a miscarriage. Abortion, even today, is a medically induced miscarriage. Whenever an act of fornication got a woman pregnant in an unplanned manner, the father of the baby was charged with fornication, meaning the Greek root word πορνεία (Latin: porneia). Abortifacient herbs that induced miscarriage were also treated as intoxicants, and were prohibited by the Greek root word μεθυσος (Latin: methusos). The only reason why abortion isn't mentioned in the Old Testament is because no abortifacient herbs grew in Ancient Israel, and when they were shipped in, they were stopped at the border. 

Abortion isn't a way of a woman controlling her own body. An unborn child is a body within the mother's body. and carries the genes of both the mother and the father, with this being the case from conception. An unborn child is therefore a human life in and of his/herself. 

Abortion is a rare procedure in today's world. Most women oppose abortion for themselves, but not for other women. However, abortion is often used to cover up incidents of sexual immorality, and takes all paternal responsibility away from the father. Abortion is a free pass for men to cowardly not man up and be a father. All a man has to do to prevent abortion is to keep it in his pants.

Many people, even among pro-lifers, support abortions in the case of rape, incest, or the life of the mother. However, abortion takes away the consequences and evidence of rape or incest. Even in the case of life of the mother, usually the mother is under the age of consent and thus men should simply not get young girls pregnant. Fathers always benefit from an abortion, if he wants to evade paternal responsibilities. All he has to do is keep it in his pants, and save himself for marriage, and then he wouldn't have to worry about paying for child support.

In the Early Church, abortion was banned in all cases. Even when the mother died in childbirth, the father usually stepped up to the plate and raised the child all by himself. He even lactated for his newborn child, and did not stop lactating until the child refused the nipple. Men can nurture if the child is his own. They just can't do it as well as the mother can. 

One compelling argument for abortion "rights" is the case of a pregnancy abuser, where a man frequently impregnates his wife to quarter her in a servile marriage. However, that almost always is code for rape, in which case the father should be arrested for marital rape.

Only God can take a life. Being pro-life does not mean simply being pro-birth. In order to be pro-life for the whole life, you need to oppose all taking of a human life, from the womb to the tomb. The Bible prohibits all death apart from natural death. Even if it was an accident, you better own up to it. The Bible also prohibits the death penalty, suicide, or murdering in war, just to name a few instances where the taking of a human life is morally unacceptable. The Greek root word repeating the Sixth Commandment is φονος (Latin: phonos) and refers to any death apart from natural death. 

The Bible also calls for Christians to support a safety net, as whatever you don't do for the poor and the vulnerable, you don't do for Christ (see Matt. 25:31-46). The Early Christians has a church tax that was enforced on all church parishioners. No man went hungry in the Early Church, as the church tax gave him free money to buy food as he saw fit. Today, that church tax can be replaced with a sales tax that, in turn, replaces the income tax, thus abolishing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). We will all be judged on how charitable we are, and opposing a safety net is opposing the poor and the vulnerable, with God standing by the poor and the vulnerable. I myself rely on Supplemental Security Income (SSI), and I am grateful to God for the money coming from the government, as I don't deserve it. SSI should be the only permanent income coming from the government, and should only be there when you need it  However, an actual safety net involves eliminating expenses on basic necessities such as daycare and healthcare, and when that happens, families have more money to spend on what they want to spend on, saving money in the long run. I support a social safety net that benefits all human beings, from the womb to the tomb. 

The depraved and entitled mothers who murder their unborn children in the womb, and all who aid and abet, will be cast forever into the lake of fire and burning sulfur, which is the second death prepared for Satan and his accomplices! Repent!
