False argument: babies 2 / 6/ 10 months old can't survive without "help" and killing them would be murder. People in nursing homes can't survive without "help" and killing them would be murder. A baby is human at the moment of conception. There is absolutely zero chance the embryo will develop into a dog, sheep, snake, mouse, etc. It will absolutely develop into a human being. His / her ability to survive without "help" is irrelevant in determining whether killing them is murder. Abortion is murder.
If one is an atheist (not saying you are), that does not change whether or not God exists and has laws governing His creation. I can walk around all day and declare that I do not believe in gravity. But gravity absolutely rules my life and has potential penalties. In that vein, I leave this:
Proverbs 6:16-18
These six things the Lord hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
