In case you haven't noticed... you can't legally abort a person or anyone with rights. That would be called murder rather than an abortion, y'know. And it tends to happen to folks AFTER they're born.
So because it's legal its right? yet you have a problem with ancient Hebrew law? interesting. Also you do realize that at one time black people had no rights.
Answer this question, who has the authority to decide who has a right to live?
Don't you find it odd that corporations are afforded the same rights as people (look up corporate person-hood) yet an unborn person isn't?

If you have a "stubborn and rebellious son," then you and the other men in your neighborhood "shall stone him with stones that he die."
To kill or not to kill
What the Bible says about children and stoning
(21:18) "If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother,"
(21:19) "Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city."
(21:20) "And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard."
(21:21) "And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die."
You're proving my point there bud, under the law he no longer had right to live, which means you should be fine with it.
