Tell your "friends" who sent you a pm of what I posted because of course as we all know, You "never read my posts," this as my response:
1) As you can see here, Judaism is right in line with what I said about abortion being justified when the woman's life is at stake
if she doesn't have the abortion:
In
Judaism, views on
abortion draw primarily upon the legal and ethical teachings of the
Hebrew Bible, the
Talmud, the case-by-case decisions of
responsa, and other rabbinic literature. While all major
Jewish religious movements allow (or even encourage) abortion in order to save the life or health of a pregnant woman, authorities differ on when and whether it is permitted in other cases.
2) Judaism also has three separate divisions-Orthodox, Conservative and Reformed meaning that certain interpretations
and views that differ.
To be honest I can't explicity state what each of them states about abortio because I never delmed into the matter.
3) Most importantly while I certainly do believe most in some of the main tenets of Judaism
as whole some which places a lot more emphasis on our present existence/ family, etc.rather that in
the AfterLife, I also have additional views and in general an eclectic view of other religions;in fact Imarried a true
Evangelcial Christian woman many Jewish people would not have because of what would to appear to be
totally diametrically opposed views!!
In essence I believe in Universal Goodness regardless of religion and also have strong beliefs about my personalized
and individualized relationship with God and the values HE has instilled in me than simply relying on 100% of what Judaism preaches!!
I hope that one of your friends passes this along so that you can read it.
It goes without saying that while I will certainly read any response to this, I will not debate as I have held these beliefs
since childhood and am very confident about them as they apply to myself!!
