    Any Jew, Christian, or Muslim that says that god frowns on slaughtering pregnant women, infants, or children has not read their own holy texts. The Judea-Christian Texts are chalk full of stories where god and even Jesus says that they/he will slaughter kids until the streets run with a river of blood. They even give a big thumbs up to CANNIBALISM of your own children! (Deuteronomy 28:53 & II Kings 6:28-29)

    ✖ God's OK On Abortion

    "And when he hath made her drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people. And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed." Numbers 5:27-28

    Comment: This nonsensical ritual, prescribed by God, to a woman suspected of infidelity, must undergo the drinking of a vile concoction made of bitter water and dust from the floor of a tabernacle. A priest calls a curse upon the woman's head to insure that if she has acted in adultery the drinking of the liquid will cause her to have a miscarriage. If she comes out clean, then she shall conceive.

    ► Regardless of how ridiculous this procedure seems, any person who believes every word of the Bible must come to terms with the realization that the quoted God here sometimes authorizes abortion. ◄

    ✖ Jesus Will Kill Children

    "Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works." Revelation 2:22-23

    Comment: If anyone thinks Jesus represents only a peaceful loving soul, then think again. For an act of adultery, Jesus would kill innocent children for the adultery of others; hardly fair justice, love, or the concern for human beings. Some apologists claim that "children" refers to the followers of a cult of Jezebel and not to children birthed from Jezebel. However, if this proved the case, the situation would appear even more horrific, for a cult of believers could number in the dozens, hundreds, thousands, or more. The deaths of these multitude of cult believers (which would include children within its membership) would only make the moralistic problem far more atrocious.

    ✖ Happy To Kill Children

    "Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." Psalms 137:9, KJV

    "How blessed will be the one who seizes and dashes your little ones Against the rock." Psalms 137:9, New American Bible

    ✖ Rip Up Pregnant Women

    "Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up." Hosea 13:16

    Comment: Throughout the Bible, God smites those who do not believe in him or those who do not follow his commands. Here we have the grotesque description of infants dashed to pieces and pregnant women ripped up. Whatever rebellious nature an infant's father or mother may have had, it bears no justice to an innocent child or to an unborn fetus who could not possibly have rebelled against God, much less understood him. Anyone who claims to love such a God, must accept infanticide as one of God's ugly revenges.

    ✖ God Kills The Firstborns!

    "And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle. And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead." Exodus 12:29-30

    Comment: If we believe every word in the Bible as coming from God, then it stands to reason that the violent actions from the God described in Exodus cannot give us a moral comparison to live our lives in a peaceful world. If one wishes to believe that God possess love for His creations, then the killing of innocent children cannot possibly come from God, and therefore, these verses from the Bible must have come elsewhere. But note that if one takes the Bible's words as absolute truth, then not only did God smote the firstborn children, but all firstborn regardless of age. This means all firstborn teenagers, firstborn men & women, firstborn octogenarians, and even all firstborn cows and bulls. Regardless of how much love, charity, or goodness they may have imparted to the world, if they had the unfortunate luck to have first passed through their mother's vagina in the land of Egypt, according to the Bible, God killed them!

    Source(s): ✖ Kill Man, Woman, Infant "Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt. Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass." I Samuel 15:2-3 Comment: No matter how one can justify possible crimes from adults, suckling infants have no means of acting out crimes. And what evil against God could the animals have possibly performed? Only an evil entity could kill innocent infants and animals, no matter what their parents and owners may have done. ☀ ❀ ☪ ✡ ✝ ☮ ☀ ❀ ☪ ✡ ✝ ☮

    How would I know what a made up super-being "feels"? Do made up supreme beings even "feel" in the way humans feel....I don't know. "God" is the omnipotent and all-knowing one, not me. I don't think there should exist laws that hang people for abortions, to answer your question the best I can. I don't know where women are hanged for abortions but laws, at least in the Western world, actually allow women to have aboritons, there are no punishments. The issue of "God" is irrelelvent. You may as well ask how would Huckleberry Finn feel, or other fictional character.

    He eagerly supports it:

    "Samaria shall bear her guilt, because she has rebelled against her GOD; they shall fall by the sword; their little ones shall be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women ripped open!" -- Hosea 13:16

    God has no problems with abortion, as several have alread noted. Nor does god have any problem with infanticide....after all, he himself killed all male babies under one year old.

    Whatta guy, huh?

    It's murder, and an abomination to God. God formed us in our mother's womb, we are alive and HUMANS not a little ball of cells or whatever you want to call an unborn child!

    Jeremiah 1:5 – “I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb.”

    1 Corinthians 6:12-13 – “You may say ‘I am allowed to do anything.’ But I reply, ‘Not everything is good for you.’ And even though ‘I am allowed to do anything,” I must not become a slave to anything…But our bodies were not made for sexual immorality. They were made for the Lord, and the Lord cares about our bodies.

    Well he's only had one kid, and apparently that was through immaculate conception.

    So judging by the amount of wives/girlfriends/whatever he must have had through the millenia, and the lack of nippers about the place, I'm guessing he's all for it.

    You said it.

    He aborted me when I was in my 30's so that should answer your question.

    Seeing as about 50% of fertilized eggs spontaneously abort, he is probably pretty chill about it.

    Please read the bible and don't state the only verse you know before you start asking stupid questions. I don't know myself of what he thinks, no one knows just as i may not know what your thinking.

    Yeah, that scripture has nothing to do with anything.

    I'm sure god loves it. It's crowd control.
