Which God? Which book?
Even those who claim to be co-religionists can't agree on vast areas of morality.
For simplicity, let's take four people who all believe in the same God, and look at Abortion, and keep to a yes/no. Nuance is there in reality, but we are going for clarity.
The Jew. Abortion is allowed by God.
Christian A. It's murder.
Christian B. It's allowed.
Muslim. It's fine up to, roughly speaking 4 months.
Now, which of those positions, ALL of which are based on their understanding of what God wants, is correct? And what makes you the one to judge? Check your Matthew 7:1 and also, how are doing re Matthew 19:21 et al?
