The Bible Does Not Condemn Abortion

[BobTheSubgenius]

7. The cite is Exodus 21:22-25.

However, I cannot find a website that offers the complete text any more. It used to be easy to find a KJV online, complete and unabridged, but it is a profit center now, apparently. The best I could do was this synopsis:

The Covenant Code legislates the case of a pregnant woman who becomes involved in a brawl between 2 men and has a miscarriage. A distinction is then made between the penalty that is to be exacted for the loss of the fetus and injury to the woman. For the fetus, a fine is paid as determined by the husband and the judges. However, if the woman is injured or dies, "lex talionis" is applied -- life for life, eye for eye, etc.

Granted, this does not cover every scenario or nuance, but, unless this passage is contradicted elsewhere in the Bible, it seems pretty definitive.
