First of all thank you for your posts, they provide me each day with new facts that I make time for since I discovered your blog. Today though, I looked up a bit of what's written in the picture above. As much as I was not surprised by what it contains, I thought it would be even more enlightening to read some of it in its full context. So I picked "Fetuses are not persons" and looked up for Exodus 21:22-25, but that very quote does not appear there. 21-25 being as follow:
22 “When men strive together and hit a pregnant woman, so that her children come out, but there is no harm, the one who hit her shall surely be fined, as the woman’s husband shall impose on him, and vhe shall pay as the wjudges determine. 23 But if there is harm,4 then you shall pay xlife for life, 24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, 25 burn for burn, wound for wound, stripe for stripe.
Digging a bit, it seems that #22 is often being used by pro-life advocates, but in another way.
I admit Idid not search further to check the accuracy of other quotes from the picture. But I wish I could have posted it o my blog too.
Wish you a very nice day, and thank you again. Best regards from France, Laurent
