The Bible has not one word to say about abortion, for or against.
However, in Genesis, chapters 6 and 7, God personally drowns every single pregnant woman, thereby aborting every single pregnancy. It is impossible to be more radically pro-abortion than the God of the Bible.
Genesis 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
8 people are spared: Noah, his three sons, and their wives. All adults, and none of them pregnant. All pregnant women were drowned by God. All children were drowned by God, including every baby.
The Bible says God lied, and "the serpent" told the truth.
Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Genesis 3:3--6 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Neither Adam nor Eve died on the day they ate the fruit. God lied, and "the serpent" told the truth.
Genesis 3:22--23 And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever: Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
The phrase "one of us" is interesting. Christian trinitarians take this as support for their belief that God is, and always was, three people: father, son, and holy spirit.
