The Bible forbids us from intentionally ending the lives or shedding the innocent blood of image bearers of God by any means. The Bible doesn't need to mention 'abortion' by name for it to be prohibited. Its clear commands against murder and the shedding of innocent blood already encompass the intentional termination of a human life. Jesus reinforced these prohibitions through his teachings, reflecting his Father’s will. (Genesis 9:6; Proverbs 6:16-17; Exodus 20:13; Deuteronomy 5:17; Matthew 19:17-19; Romans 13:9). biblegateway.com/passage/?searc…

@ProLifeBigTex @Jeremy_m_smith1 @NolastnameAngel @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico Plenty of evidence that God never intended to punish abortion; in fact there is not a single rule against abortion in the entire bible and he was perfectly OK with smiting newborns depending on the context as well.

.@JamesTalarico: The most revolutionary teaching in my religion is the teaching to love your enemy. If you’re going to stand up to entrenched power, you're going to get some opponents — but the revolutionary part is that you are called to love your enemies just as you love yourself. I try and fail every day in the legislature to see my opponents as children of God. You really only love God as much as you love the person you love the least. The test of Christianity is not do you love Jesus, because Jesus is pretty lovable. The test is, do you love Judas? That is radical, and I think that is the key to saving this whole American experiment.

@BustoMundo @True_Zenith @razorgrrrl @DC_DeWitt "It says the Lord formed a man out of dirt" Correct, a man, from dirt not a child, from the womb

@ProLifeBigTex @True_Zenith @razorgrrrl @DC_DeWitt It says the Lord formed a man out of dirt. And gave him the breath of life and the man became a living being. And that is it. Everything you said is just the flowery way literalists interpret it.

Ohio Republican lawmakers announced a new bill Tuesday to regulate abortion providers, once again mandating specific language that providers would be required to read before an abortion takes place, language not accepted by the overall medical community ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/03/25/med…

Interesting: Halakha states that biological human life starts in the womb, 40 days after conception, not after birth or with a newborn's first breath. "And if she is pregnant, until forty days from conception the fetus is merely water. It is not yet considered a living being" - Yevamot 69b:10 sefaria.org/Yevamot.69b.10…

@ProLifeBigTex @Pie_Oh_My_ @sola_chad You have quite an extensive list of authorities, but they don’t support your views. A fetus is alive, but it is not a person.

Jeremiah 1:5 - “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.” Abortion is murder. Every child deserves a chance at life.

@AAdams3043 The Pope never blessed the union of two homosexuals.

@ProLifeBigTex Once again, to bless a person - IN THEIR SIN - is to partake in that sin yourself. Many Catholics interpret the pope’s words that way. To answer your question, no; but that isn’t the same concern being raised at all.

Yeah, cuz there’s no such thing as Protestant churches with ecclesiastical structure that are condemning this. As we all know, this is all Martin Luther’s fault. If he woulda just been a good boy and paid some indulgences, the church would’ve been forever unified,

@TaintedSaint2 @QueenCatKim @IsabellaMi24887 @JadeK526 Adam was never a child in the womb, and Genesis 2:7 describes his creation as the progenitor of our human species, not the creation of his progeny, which requires sexual intercourse, conception, gestation, and birth from the womb of a mother.

@ProLifeBigTex @QueenCatKim @IsabellaMi24887 @JadeK526 Genesis 2:7 states that when God gave man the breath of life, man became a living creature. I don't have to believe in something to know what it says. I can tell you about Greek mythology too, but don't follow it.

You don't get ownership of a woman or girls experience with pregnancy. If they say it was traumatic than it was. No need to gaslight and tell them it wasn't. If you weren't there sit down and shut up. I will say it again: Pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum are traumatic events. Stop sugarcoating others experiences with rainbows and sugar. Pregnancy and childbirth is bloody, intrusive, and extremely hard. No one knows what will happen when they get pregnant and give birth, so yeah you're always playing Russian Roulette with your life.

@AAdams3043 He is not blessing their sin; he is blessing the person. When I was in the hospital, my priest blessed me. Does that mean he blessed all my sins?

@ProLifeBigTex Yeah, I get WHAT he said; and to be clear, I’m not saying we need to be jerks to gay people. They need Jesus just as much as you and I do. That isn’t the issue. The issue is that the Bible says that to bless another in their sin is to partake in their evil work.

@TaintedSaint2 @QueenCatKim @IsabellaMi24887 @JadeK526 It doesn't even state that.... So you make up a lie about something supposedly found it something you call mythology?

@ProLifeBigTex @QueenCatKim @IsabellaMi24887 @JadeK526 Nope, I never said it was any kind of "truth". I was replying to the person using a Bible quote as truth.

Even Jews think so. According to Jewish Law, as outlined in Sanhedrin 57b.5, the death penalty is explicitly applied for the slaying of a fetus, with this judgment presented as an unchallenged view in the Talmud, lacking any documented dissent. "A descendant of Noah is executed for killing fetuses… It is derived from that which is written: ‘One who sheds the blood of a person, by a person his blood shall be shed’ (Genesis 9:6). What is a person that is in a person? You must say: This is a fetus that is in its mother’s womb” - Sanhedrin 57b.5 sefaria.org/Sanhedrin.57b.… According to Sanhedrin 57b, the method of execution prescribed for a Noachide convicted of killing of a fetus is death by strangulation. “In a person, his blood shall be shed.” In what manner is a person’s blood shed while it is still inside the person’s body, without visible external bleeding? You must say that this is strangulation. It is therefore derived that the execution of a descendant of Noah is by strangulation. - Sanhedrin 57b:6 sefaria.org/Sanhedrin.57b.…

@ProLifeBigTex @Pie_Oh_My_ @sola_chad There is no “image bearer” in the womb.

@TaintedSaint2 @QueenCatKim @IsabellaMi24887 @JadeK526 So you cite a truth claim from mythology?

@ProLifeBigTex @QueenCatKim @IsabellaMi24887 @JadeK526 Well, I mean, it's all mythology without actual scientific basis anyway, so it's rather irrelevant overall.

“What I allowed was not to bless the union. That cannot be done because that is not the sacrament. I cannot. The Lord made it that way. But to bless each person, yes. The blessing is for everyone. ... To bless a homosexual-type union, however, goes against the given right, against the law of the church. But to bless each person, why not?” - Pope Francis

@ProLifeBigTex That just is not being intellectually honest with your own position.

"It does mention how you should be killed for wearing mixed fabrics and eating shellfish. How many Christians ignore that?" Levitical sacrificial laws never applied to Christians.

@BroChrs @TheAlexSylvian The Bible doesn’t mention abortion or transgenderism. It does mention how you should be killed for wearing mixed fabrics and eating shellfish. How many Christians ignore that?

it's crazy that alan ritchson looks like that, is one of those christians, homeschools his three children, and the guys who should love that have to hate him

@MAL2TX @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Exodus 21:22-25, Genesis 2:7

.@JamesTalarico: The kind of religion that says you can treat people however you want as long as you have a personal relationship with Jesus is an abomination. Scripture says you can't love God and hate other people. You can't love God and abuse the immigrant. You can't love God and bully the outcast. You can't love God and oppress the poor. We spend so much time looking for God out there, that we miss God in the person sitting right next to us.

"Jews believe that life begins with first breath" The Hebrew Bible and Halakha never state that image bearers of God lack human life in the womb or that their biological existence begins with their first breath after birth from their mother's womb. Halakha states that biological human life starts in the womb, 40 days after conception, not after birth or with a newborn's first breath. "And if she is pregnant, until forty days from conception the fetus is merely water. It is not yet considered a living being" - Yevamot 69b:10 sefaria.org/Yevamot.69b.10…

@ProLifeBigTex @Pie_Oh_My_ @sola_chad Yes. Yes it does. Exodus 21:22-24. A dead fetus is a property crime. Jews believe that life begins with first breath and that a woman is more important than her fetus. So do many Christians. Many of us are pro-choice. This is not the image of God. God is invisible.

"Exodus 21:22-24. A dead fetus is a property crime." The Mosaic Law of Retribution never treated the image bearer in the womb as mere property that can be discarded, and never permitted us to end their lives. There is also a fine or exile if the mother dies because Exodus 21:22-25 outlines unintentional acts that led to harm or death, and Mosaic law and Rabbinic traditions never applied the death penalty for manslaughter.

@DGarr51647 @sallywarden @James_P_Roach @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico @stephenasmith Thank you 🙏

@ProLifeBigTex @sallywarden @James_P_Roach @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico @stephenasmith Appreciate you sharing this! You said it wonderfully.

.@stephenasmith: You’re down in Texas and as a right-winger, you're about to go left because of what you're seeing? Voter: I'm gonna vote for Mr. Talarico, man, 100%. I haven't voted Democratic since I was 20 years old. I am absolutely disgusted with the way things are going. James Talarico is a different deal. He speaks from the heart. I know some of the people he knows. The guy is the real deal, man.

@jusdoods @Bert7058 @MagaGrunt1 @PowerhouseMaga The Hebrew and Christian Bibles never state that image bearers of God lack human life in the womb or that their biological existence begins with their first breath after birth from their mother's womb.

@Bert7058 @MagaGrunt1 @PowerhouseMaga Yeh that sure happened. 🙄 Have you seen the vitriol these protestors spew at women trying to the best for her own life? Remember, the Bible says life comes at the first breath - ie - WHEN THEY ARE BORN!!

🇺🇸The unfortunate truth.🇺🇸

@sorayamarty @Federalist1051 @gafr60 @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico Intentionally ending the life of a human child is murder.

@ProLifeBigTex @Federalist1051 @gafr60 @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico Unwilling to do so means they don't want to do labour, forcing them to do so would be slavery. It's not murder to deny use of your body - you do it every day you choose not to donate your blood, tissue or organs despite people needing them.

@sorayamarty @Federalist1051 @gafr60 @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico "incapable of gestating" would equate to a natural stillbirth or miscarriage. "unwilling to do so" would most likely be murder

@ProLifeBigTex @Federalist1051 @gafr60 @TeamTalaricoHQ @jamestalarico I wasn't talking about stillbirth or miscarriage.
