In Genesis (first book of the christian bible) It says God breathe into Adam and he became a living soul. so how can an aborted baby have a soul.

We do not have a soul, we are a soul. Soul refers to the whole being, even animals and other creatures are called souls. When we die, we are just dead, out of existence. We do not go to heaven when we die. Read your Bibles.

Did God "breathe into you" when you were born? No, you came out and took a breath. Genesis does not say, "Adam took a breath" so you don't have to breathe to be a human being and all human beings have a soul even in the earliest developmental stages.
We were all embyros and fetuses, that is just the early part of being human.

Yes Genesis does say that life was breathed in ... but since we were not there ... was it breathed in him as a fetus? Dunno ... the Bible didn't say ... and the men who were inspired by the Holy Spirit could not have possibly had the medical advancements to properly tell us ... even with our medical technology ... we can only measure the soul at a persons death. It is said by the scientific community that the soul does have a measurable weight to it.
Oxygen is breath, technically. Oxygen is delivered through the mothers blood stream.
I favor all life, and will side with caution believing that a fetus does have a soul.

Who would enter the body of something that is going to be ended that way? Who in their right mind would do that? What would be the purpose or the lesson in being aborted? NO... Aborted babies don't have souls. We do not usually enter the body until just before birth, at the earliest a month or two before.

Babies have a soul at conception. That's why it's considered murder to abort at anytime. The "embryo" is a living organism right at the point of conception. No, maybe the idea of the "soul" isn't in tack, but it is still living. Our soul is comprised of our emotions and personality. I believe babies have emotions very early...before birth.

James 2:26 says that the body without a spirit is dead. These tiny bodies were alive (growing, moving, responding to stimulants, taking in nourishment, etc.) before being killed by the abortion process, therefore, they had a spirit or a soul.

Well, aborted babies DO breathe in the womb.
They also have brain waves and heartbeats, and therefore, they're ALIVE.
Which means that yes, if people do have souls, so do aborted babies.

A preborn baby gets oxygen directly through the placenta. So breathing is just something that is done for the preborn. What happens when a person is put in an iron lung because they can not breath on there own?

The Bible also says ''I(God) knitted you together in your Mothers Womb.
So yes babies un-born do have a soul.....It must have a soul...to even be there in the Mothers womb.....
Aborted babies have a soul....
