I think the abortion issue, like several hot-button Christian issues that were not hot-button when Christianity was forming, really should be examined through a lens of both culture and scripture.

What I mean by that is we know abortion was a real phenomenon in Jesus's day. We don't know how pervasive the practice was but we know for sure that doctors knew how to induce medical abortions, and they wrote about it, seemingly with no controversy.

If anyone objected to practice at the time, it has not come down to us.

The Christian objection to abortion developed centuries after the New Testament era ended. So, it's important to point out that those objections have no Biblical endorsement despite logically tortuous claims to the contrary, but here's a more important point:

If abortion is such a big deal, equivalent to murder, etc, as some Christians teach today, why didn't the people who wrote the Bible talk about it? Or from a Christian perspective, why didn't God inspire them to talk about it?

You'd think if it was that important, God would have provided clarity, especially since abortion was happening and being promoted in society while God is said to have been inspiring people to write the New Testament.

This is a case where silence really does speak volumes.
