[net.abortion] Early Christian Church and Abortion

paul@phs.UUCP (Paul C. Dolber) (11/05/84)

There seems to be some interest in the Biblical view of abortion, as
suggested by two recent items in this forum.

Those further interested in this would probably be interested in
"Abortion and the Early Church: Christian, Jewish, and Pagan Attitudes
in the Graeco-Roman World," by Michael Gorman, Intervarsity Press,
120 pp., $4.95. I have not read the book, nor am I likely to; it was
reviewed in the Nov 16 National Review (pp. 50-52).
