    No. You said that murdering babies is ok (abortion). I know that is a popular platform, but you are wrong. Abortion is wrong because murder is wrong. God's command not to murder was not in the context of Israel's governance.

    Perhaps your political leanings (pro-choice?) has influenced your theology. To address your claim, abortion is wrong - but not on the grounds that God prohibited Israel from certain laws concerning abortion.

    Lets clear this up

    MartyF -- Do you believe that abortion is acceptable under any circumstances?

    Simple yes or no will do.

    I agree. I was going off the above post but I do not have a sense of humor when it comes to a few issues while others may (abortion is my deciding factor in politics).

    Yep. We may not like it (and I doubt it will be used in the future anyway...heck, we're giving the country away) but it is Constitutional.
