Comment on I don't know why American Christians are against abortion...
BoiledRhombus@lemmy.world 1 year agoThat’s like saying a all-knowing God would know which people were going to be slaves all their lives 150 years ago, so He didn’t put much effort into creating them. Every life has value to God, whether they are birthed or not.

He’d actually be doing them a service, if he knew they would be enslaved and didn’t make the experience so vivid for them.
Or better yet just outright saying “don’t own people as property” would be nice, rather than saying it’s ok pretty explicitly (not in all contexts, etc etc. I don’t want to spend the hours drilling into the verses until we get to the part where the person is forced into saying something like “i don’t know why god is ok with that but i have to trust he’s good”)
