If I cheated on my husband and I became pregnant, I would abort the shit out of that sucka. According to Jesus Christ Superstar 2000, he just grows up to be a whiny homo anyway.
What did they use to induce abortion back then? Gold, frankinscense or myrhh? And why are camels so goddamned slow?
Several herbs were known to have been used in Rome to induce abortion. There were record of pervailers of such herbs being crucified during the reign of Augustus when the Emperor thought the virtues of Roman aristocratic women were not what they could be, and yet the birth rate amongst Roman aristocracy was too low.
Punching a woman's lower abdemon during early pregnancy was also a common method. It was even said to have been used by certain Roman emperors on their wives.
