Good Response to "If men could get pregnant ...

Good response.

... Setting to the side its blatant anti-Catholicism, the old abortion rights counterfactual sloganeering that “if men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament,” might better be expressed as “because men cannot get pregnant, abortion is a sacrament.” If men could get pregnant, surely they would insist on something better than being vacuumed out and sent on their way. Surely they would demand comprehensive health care, affordable childcare, and extended parental leave policies. If men could get pregnant, would they not demand something better than abortion?

Bible does NOT give a recipe for abortion

Conclusion

Neither interpretation provides any support for taking the life of an unborn child.

We have looked at two plausible interpretations of the curious passage in Numbers 5 that some people have cited as an argument for abortion. Yet neither interpretation provides any support for taking the life of an unborn child. The disfigurement view does not involve a pregnancy at all. The miscarriage view does indeed involve a pregnancy, but the sins of the parents (their adulterous relationship and her false oath before God and man) are wholly to blame for the resultant miscarriage.

The Bible consistently teaches that the life of the child in the womb is just as valuable as those who have already been born. Every human being, both male and female and from the moment of fertilization, is made in God’s image, regardless of one’s level of development, physical or mental ability, ethnicity, or age. These truths will be vividly displayed in the Creation Museum’s upcoming exhibit, Fearfully and Wonderfully Made, opening later this year. This spectacular exhibit will celebrate human life from the moment of fertilization, showcasing our Creator’s unmatched handiwork, respectfully addressing sensitive issues in our culture, and showing the message of hope and forgiveness through the gospel of Jesus Christ.

A pro-life hero, Carol Crossed, spoke to the folks gathered in McQuaid High School's chapel for a prayer service, then we marched to a site where abortions are performed, and prayed there.
