@Milhouse What teshuva did Reb Moshe say that? The one I saw he calls it “similar to murder” but doesn’t actually call it murder, and still says that it’s necessary at times so the oilom shouldn’t follow the X-tian right wing and ban all clinics.
What does the Moetzes say about your side, since they are very clearly not anti-abortion?
@Reb-Eliezer Sorry, can you be a little more clear? I don’t think we are allowed to paskin from a pasuk like that, though I may be wrong. Is the Maharsha giving a psak halacha l’meisah? Does he say if there’s a difference in how far along the baby is? I seem to recall a gemara that states that there’s an early period of time where the fetus isn’t considered alive.
