If God didn't intend for us to annihilate ourselves, why did God give us the ability to create nuclear weapons?
This is absurd.
God also didn't create us with high-speed internet.

I thought God created us with dust...God also didn't create us with high-speed internet.

And neither Schiff nor I do so. But the fact remains that, from the standpoint of Judaism, abortion does not equal murder. The OP asks: "Where in the Bible does it forbid abortion?" I'd be interested in reading your answer.Without having read Sciff's book, I believe it would be hard to argue that abortion in most cases is okay.
Because of nuclear power.If God didn't intend for us to annihilate ourselves, why did God give us the ability to create nuclear weapons?
Because of nuclear power.
The technology to make a nuclear bomb can be used for non destructive purposes.
What other purpose do herbs which causes abortion have?
Whatever compounds cause abortions/miscarriages are probably used by the plant itself for something: warding off animals that would eat it, attracting animals that would spread its seeds, some other sort of biological process, or whatever. "Purpose" doesn't have to be a human purpose, after all.I suppose they can be used for rat poison or something.

I agree abortion does equal murder. However, just because it's not in the same category does not mean that it isn't always forbidden. As I said before, I think that the issue is something that is determined on a case-by-case analysis. And sadly, I'm no where near competant enough or educated enough to be the one to draw the line on each case. I do feel as though I can give general outlines on the issue but that's about as far as I'm willing to discuss the issue. I'm just not educated enough to make a ruling.And neither Schiff nor I do so.

OMG!!!Let the woman control her own body, not the church down the street.
I got this little note when I tried your link:Ha! This reminds me of the saying:
"If men could get pregnant, then abortion would be a sacrament"
heh heh ... see my thread Abortion is a sacrament?
OMG!!!
Are you insane?
Let women control their own bodies?!?!
If we let women control their own bodies the next thing you know, they will want to control their own beliefs..
and then their own THOUGHTS!!!
Where would it end!?!?!?!?
