Much mention is made of "the" bible (or Bible).
Which bible?
There is a Christian bible or bibles (catholic and protestant versions),
there is a Jewish bible, there is a Koran (Muslim bible), etc.
All of these are claimed to be true by their faithful, but
how is one to make a choice? Objective tests only, please.
Perhaps in the future contributors to the net can be specific
as to which bible is meant, so that followers of another
bible don't have to worry.

On the subject of sperm and ova, contraception can of
course be viewed as pre-emtive abortion.
If the net had existed 30 years ago, the abortion
debate would have been a contraception debate, with
much the same arguments.
