I am joining this conversation late . However Theo your concept of the value and purpose of a woman is, that of an Neandertal.
Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.28 And God blessed them, and
God said unto them,
Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth,
and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and
man became a living soul.
Gen 2:18 And
the LORD God said[/color=, [color=red]It is not good that the man should be alone;
I will make him an help meet for him.
Gen 2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but
for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. 21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 And Adam said,
This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.Gen 5:1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man,
in the likeness of God made he him;2
Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
Rom 5:12 Wherefore,
as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
Gen 4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
1 Timothy 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 15 Notwithstanding
she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
Tell me if you can, what was the first generation that came into the world by a different method than that spoken into existence by the God of the Neanderthals!
Gen 9:16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember
the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth[/color].
Luke 20:38 For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living:
for all live unto him.
Then tell me how it is you think YOU are an exception? You think you exist from a process different from that which produced the Neanderthal? THAT is arrogance. That is false pride.

You can't seriously believe that a woman'sprimary function is to a human incubator.
The context was "ABORTION!" Hello!!! Anyone home? In the context of Abortion, the woman is to protect and nurture, not neglect and murder.
You can't seriously think that a woman's primary function is to grovel in lust with every man that wanders into her space!

It's 2015 AD Your attitude is closer to 2015 BCE.
You remember those days, do you? Which History book are you reading, that tells you the Neanderthals murdered their unborn?

Your opinion on what constitutes life is ....interesting. ....
Not MY OPINION. God's instruction.
Quote:
An egg is basically a collection of cells as is a sperm cell.
So in your "opinion" a sperm CELL is a collection of CELL'S?
Care to explain how THAT works?

They are not conscious entity's capable of feeling pain ,joy ,hope or any other emotions.
Who told you THAT? Your Mother? Or some Godless woman with whom you grovel in lust? Or some Godless scientist who thinks to replace God in the hearts and minds of Men?

My opinion on abortion is that it's a woman's body, it's a woman's decision. So I guess that makes me Pro-Choice.
THAT is NOT what that makes you. It makes you an accessory to MURDER.
A Woman has the right to choose. When the male approaches with desire, that is the time for her to choose. NO ONE has taken that away from her. All she has to do to exercise that right, is say "NO!" And mean it.
After she becomes pregnant, it is her God-given function to nourish and protect that by which God has blessed her; the precious gift of life. Her body is no longer hers by right of exclusion. She already made the choice you throw around so callously, She chose to mate and destroy. It is NOT her right. She has shared her body, brought new life into it, to share, to nourish, to shelter, to provide, and to bring to natural fruition. After the child is grown enough to be weaned, it is once again "Her body." UNTIL THEN, it is
"Theirs!"
AND HOW DARE YOU OR ANY OTHER MAN STEP IN TO TAKE THE SIDE OF A MURDEROUS WOMAN, when it is YOUR "PRIMARY FUNCTION" TO PROVIDE for, to protect, and to facilitate her comfort and sustenance while she is otherwise occupied in producing YOUR progeny. And it is not your's to destroy, but is given you in trust, to bring up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
Ezekiel 18:4 Behold,
all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine:
Quote:
I don't like the idea of abortion being a form of birth control, as there many ,many better alternatives.
So what? If Murder is the method of choice, name it Abortion, assign ownership of the facility to the woman, and move on to the next female that catches your eye, and protect HER right to commit murder in the name of
"property rights" (it is MY BODY).
Welcome to the discussion.
