    You are inherently wrong, as clearly there are quite a few christians who disagree with you.

    They can disagree with me until the end of time. It won’t change the fact that they aren’t following what the Bible teaches.

    No amount of no true scotsman will get around the fact that this is an ideology perpetuated by christianity

    But it can’t be perpetuated by Christianity if it goes against Christian teaching, can it?

    I mean I only need to point out the division between the church and theology

    What of it?

    We’re arguing about slightly different things here, while fundamentally agreeing with each other. We’re both saying these people are out of line with what they’re doing and it’s wrong. You’re saying it’s because of Christianity, and I’m saying it’s because they’re terrible people.

    Basically, you’re arguing (I’m trying to steelman you here, please correct me if I’m wrong) that Christianity made them terrible people. But I’m arguing they’re terrible people using Christianity as a pretense to exert control.

      Then please present why the bible is objectively not against abortion.

      Your insistence that christianity is not open to interpretation on this issue is objectively wrong, as clearly there are others who do not interpret as you do. You cannot argue against this.

      If this is genuinely objectively not what the bible is teaching, then christianity as a whole is a sham, because that is the prevalent teaching in christian spaces. You and your peers should probably break off and form your own flavour, as the majority of christians will not back you in this matter, including the actual institutions who claim to teach the word of god. Your insistence is that the prevalent interpretation is wrong. Think about it. Even if that is true, if the wrong teaching is prevalently being taught in christianity, then it is still a fault of christianity.
