104. In other words, it's not murder.
It's treated the same as theft, really, which is based on the idea that the baby is the father's property, something our laws don't support. It's also interesting there's nothing in there about if the mother goes out and gets an abortion herself.

As for not following Mosaic law, well, thet pick and choose on that one. They know the law and just ignore the parts they don't want to follow.

The reality is, pro-lifers believe that abortion is murder--but their own Holy Book says it's not. In order to make their Biblical case, they have to distort a whole lot of verses.
