If Abortion Is Murder, Then Is Miscarriage Manslaughter?
April 20, 2023
#STRaskStand to Reason
Questions about whether miscarriage is manslaughter, the implications of removing explicit pro-transgender books from the children’s section of a library, and responding to an evolutionist who rejects Jesus because believing in creation would “add incoherence to the universe.”
* If abortion is legally deemed to be murder, then shouldn’t miscarriages be considered manslaughter?
* If we removed explicit pro-transgender and pro-homosexuality books from the children’s section of a library, wouldn’t we have to accommodate those asking for the removal of religious books?
* What would you say to a friend who won’t follow Jesus because believing in creation would “add incoherence to the universe”?
