Yet the bible doesn't take a stance against abortion. A fetus is often compared to water and sometimes to a limb of the mother. It never gets it's own personality or value for that matter. The old testament even gives instructions for abortions by the priest if the husband thinks one of his wives (yes, usually there are many) cheated on him.
