Why is Faith/Belief a Moral Issue?

If you care to read carfully you will note that a suspected woman takes an oath that she did not cheat then drinks 'special water.' Through this water God punishes the guilty by killing the unborn baby (IF she has one) and it renders the woman sterile. But through this very same water a innocent woman is set free without consenquence.

No one is aborting babies. God used that water to punish the guilty and free the innocent.

And you don't even pause for a seond to think that this doesn't make it any better? See, I didn't post the whole thing because there's absolutely no semantic excuse for the things written there. If god or man is doing it doesn't make any difference. It is revolting.

No sport look at it again. The water only made GUILTY women sterile, the Same water freed a innocent woman.

The point? Numbers 5 DOES NOT Describe an OT Jewish abortion clinic where mud was used to flush out babies, or have you forgotten in all your spinning thats what my disgust with what you said, and effort to try and use the bible to prove it, is all about?

I never once pretended that God did not sanction all abortion. I even gave you a like to Jewish law that permitted it in 1 case. Or did you not bother to click and read the link I left?

Also, you obviously didn't reflect on the passage where it says to cound every male from one month up. It tells us two things. Less than a month didn't count at all and females didn't matter even if they were older than a month. Same for Moses telling his thugs to kill every male among the little ones and every woman who they supposed had already had sex.

Now we can safely assume that little ones doesn't mean dwarfs but children, so spare me the usual apologetics on that passage. I've heard them all.

Why Do you Think an Accurate Count would be so important to say idk the book of NUMBERS!

What does that word "Numbers" mean to you?

The reason babies were not counted here was because infant mortality rates were very high in their present situation. So if "Numbers" or a accurate census was the goal then why would a group with a high mortality rate be counted when that number changed daily?

In modern times we have a similar practice in the saying 'don't count your chickens before they hatch.' Why? For the same reason! High mortality rate, and that number changes daily!
