Chicken and Egg – Christian Style
Somewhere in the underworld of the Internet, a lone freethinker dukes it out with those fighting for a theocracy. An excerpt…
Kelly and Bill, do you believe that when a chicken egg is fertilised, it now is a chick? Would you buy a fertilised chicken egg for the price of a chicken? Well, have I got a deal for you!
Nino, the bible was written by people who believed that the earth is flat, the sun rotates around earth, and diseases are direct curses and punishment from god. Where in the bible is there mention of a fetus, and its status at, say, two months?
You did your own verse math, the same way you cherry pick and conveniently subtract from which parts of the bible you follow. Exodus 35:2 “Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death.” Please see the bible for how it defines work – combine it with Exodus 35:2. (The only ones left living would be the sick and immobile. But their nurses… Well, who’s to argue with Exodus 35:2 and the bible?)
Ergo early abortion is not the act of killing another human being, it’s not murder. I and many others do not believe that a two month old fetus is a baby with the rights of an individual. Disagree? That’s okay. Understand that without freedom from religion, you have no freedom of religion. And that women have the right to freedom from coat hangers.
Do not impose your beliefs on others. Let them choose what they believe the same way you expect others to allow you to do so.
