statistics show that over 20% of all pregnancies world wide spontaneously abort. doesnt this fact make god the most efficient abortionist on the planet? and, as this is the case, he must be okay with the termination of pregnancies, no?

Yes. According to the bible, God is in favor of abortion.

One of the most common arguments against abortion comes from the Ten Commandments, where we are told "Thou Shalt Not Kill." But this begs the question of "kill what?" Does this commandment mean we cannot kill anything, even a fly? No. It means we should not kill another human being. Of course, the Fundamentalist believes a pre-born fetus is the same as a full-term human being. God, however, does not. In Exodus 21:22-25 we read that if a man accidentally kills a pregnant woman, that man should be condemned for committing murder. However, if he only kills the fetus - that is, if she miscarries - he is not condemned for murder. Clearly, then, God does not consider the pre-born fetus as being the same as a human being, in which case the Commandment of "Thou Shalt Not Kill (a human)" does not apply.

No. The Bible in Exodus 20:13 "You shall not murder." And contrary to what most people think a baby is a human at the time of conception & not birth.

Its also funny how the religious right has no problem at all with abortions as long as the method consists of dropping bombs out of the sky.

Almost all of those are due to a defect in the embyo, so much for "perfect creation".
