9. Homosexuality is condemned in the Old Testament
But so are a whole lot of other things. We are supposed to stone urban rape victims to death if they don't scream, for example, and stone any woman who isn't a virgin for her first marriage.

Abortion isn't ever mentioned in the Bible. God actually either causes miscarriages as punishment for sin (like to David and Bathsheba's firstborn) or condones ripping babies out of mother's wombs during wars.

Read "Ken's Guide To The Bible" by Ken Smith. It's usually in the humor section, but it has a list of Bible verses at the end with all the references to miscarriages and God's approval of soldier induced abortion in wartimes.
