Because they believe that a fetus is a human being, and that killing a human is murder. I find it sad that so many people cannot understand that many Christians really believe that.
It's crazy how many of those same Christians are okay with killing a human if it's a stand-your-ground home break in, or if it's a thief, or if it's a black guy with a counterfeit dollar bill, or if it's the death penalty.
It's sad how people fall for their stupid double-speak but here we are.
Not defending them, but they would probably say it's about innocence. If it's a criminal they can convince themselves that they deserve it (and they're racists, so they'll just assume that any given black person is a criminal).
Yes some Christians are hypocritical. Yet some really do walk the walk. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a monster.
I have never met a Christian who wouldn't kill in self-defense.
I didn't call them monsters, I called them morons.
All Christians are irreedeemable fascist monsters.
Apparently it's when they are old enough to be in school shootings that they cease to be a precious important life to be protected at all cost.
"If you're preborn, you're fine. If you're preschool, you're fucked."
Sure, they "believe" it is murder up until they or their family would like to undergo one.
Christians believe that a zombie can come back to life too. Why would any of their fantasy beliefs matter in the slightest.
I have seen no evidence that they actually believe that, considering how this diverges from their beliefs about the sanctity of life in many other areas.
We understand that they believe it. We don't agree with it and resent being told we have to live under someone else's belief system.
Forcing others to live their lives according to your religion that they do not share is violence.
The rest of humanity does not want or need your beliefs forced on us, so kindly keep them to yourselves.
The post I was replying to literally started with the words "I don't understand".
it starts with that because i, as an individual, don't understand! i've lived my whole life surrounded by atheists, was born and raised as an atheist by other atheists, and i genuinely don't get how someone can think that their outdated organised religion should dictate modern life
Buuut they don't. When was the last time a so called Christian held a funeral for a miscarriage??
They do not believe what you said, not at all.
Their religious texts don't say it. They don't believe because they are not ready to throw their sisters and mothers in prison for abortions.
It is all a big fat lie perpetrated by politicians using religion for their personal gain. They have used effective propaganda to dup non-political people into voting for them.
There are some extremists that may believe this but they are not mainstream at all despite how badly they want to be. I would argue these people are not Christians at all.
