Yeah I had a coworker tell me she couldn't personally justify using hormonal birth control because she read that it's possible for it to prevent a fertilized embryo from adhering to the uterine lining but like:
Arguments about at what point it becomes a human being or has human rights are all just emotion-inducing distractions to shift the conversation away from the actual discussion of bodily autonomy and consent. We don't forcibly rip skin off of dad when the baby gets burns, or hold him down and bleed him when the baby needs a transfusion, and we all agree it's a person at that point. Whether or not the fetus is a person is irrelevant to the conversation. Getting people to say they don't think it's a person is just another way to maintain it as a political issue: "look they don't think babies are people!"
They also don't want to have that conversation because if the argument becomes about what kindnesses and service they owe to their fellow humans in general, they become uncomfortable very quickly.
From that perspective she shouldn’t be having sex either since it’s widely understood now that there are often multiple fertilized egg cells floating around, and once the “winner” implants into the uterine lining the others will be flushed out anyway.
Can we just get to the part where producing ovum is a sin
Isn't that half of the bible?
exactly.
I'm going through the bible right now actually and I'm kind of tempted to livetweet it (well, toot since it's mastodon).

The best part is Abraham keeps the money though, so at least letting his half-sister cuck him pays off in the end. Then there's this:

I really wish there was a good Christian community on here I was raised fundie and I've really been getting back to my roots and I'm having the absolute BEST time.
