I mean this as a serious question.

Yes, I know that Catholics and similar non-Protestants claim that even masturbation is murdering little babies, but I want scripture not dogma.

Did Jesus ever speak out against abortion? Safe sex (even between a married couple)? Wet dreams?

I know prudes freak out even having to talk about these common subjects, but there are plenty of other detailed sexual laws in the Torah. What do the actual writings say on these subjects.

Add: I do not want scripture on murder. I want scripture on calling birth control murder.

Add: "before we were in our mothers womb"
By that quote, changing your mind about choosing to concieve would also be a form of abortion.

Add: I have watched the video. I am not squeemish about medical procedures. It bothers me as much as watching a galbladder opperation.

It does not, this is false teaching of man and the church.

Thou shall not kill?
Jesus said. Thou shall not be angry with his brother without a cause. What is a cause. According to Jesus you have no cause to be angry with your brother.

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive your trespasses, but if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father foregive your trespasses.

He among you who is without sin cast the first stone.

Are you angry, you have no right to be angry, anger will cause you to lose your soul

Jesus said; "Greater love hath no man then this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." He did not say fight for or defend, or save, he said Lay Down.

I give you another commandment" that you love one another as I have loved you." I lay down my life for the sheep.

Psalm 39 may be familiar to you, describing the relationship between God and us "even before we were in our mothers womb" and certainly "when we were being formed". The fact that it is murder comes from simply watching video of it being done whether by saline solution or by pulling the child apart limb by limb. If you have seen the pictures of little arms and legs separated from the body, it seems it would be clear enough to you. (google it) Or even the whole body blackened by the burning of the saline solution. Do you need more proof than the fact that they suck their thumbs and respond to each other when they are multiple in the womb that they are human? That all happens as early as 8 weeks. I personally believe that if we are allowed to kill them in the womb, then we should also be allowed to kill them up to...say...3 years old. You know, because the main reason we abort is because they are a nusiance of bad timing, but the same can be true outside the womb. Murder is simply killing a person - thus we call abortion a murder. Not complicated. You will find God's thoughts on murder in the ten commandments.

Catholics believe that from the moment of conception until natural death, each human being is endowed by God with dignity and rights.

You shall not kill. (Ex 20:13; cf. Deut 5:17)

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you. (Jer 1:5; cf. Job 10:8-12; Ps 22:10-11)

My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately wrought in the depths of the earth. (Ps 139:15)

Early Church writings: You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish. (Didache 2, 2: SCh 248, 148; cf. Ep. Barnabae 19, 5: PG 2, 777; Ad Diognetum 5, 6: PG 2, 1173; Tertullian, Apol. 9: PL 1, 319-320)

With love in Christ.
