According to most anti-abortionists, "Abortion is murder."
That's what they say when asked.
​
I always assumed that, for many of them, the real issue is that the woman ought to be required to bear the child as punishment for her sexual sins.

Re: NO Forgiveness?
Skeptics annotated Bible? ROFLMAO!!!! Talk about a neutral, reputable source!!!
As far as I can tell, it has the accurate KJV Bible. That should be neutral and reputable enough.
​
I'll grant that it annotated. The annotations tend to be unlike what you will see on a theologians site. It's a good site to go to if you are looking for information on the parts of the Bible that theologians find embarrassing.
​
Christians should probably spend some time at the site. It might give them an alternative perspective.

Re: NO Forgiveness?
​
Crashfrog is trying to show that Christians have a tainted history (which we do) ...
That individual Christian might happen to kill, does not count against Christians as a group. The problem comes when Christians kill (or do other misdeeds) in the name of their Christian beliefs. And, as you have admitted, they have done that.
​
... while Atheism is so loveable and innocent.
Again, what individual atheists do, as individuals, is not relevant here. The question is whether they have done egregious things in the name of atheism. We await the evidence.
