Excerpted...
In an Alabama Supreme Court ruling equating IVF embryos with people, Chief Justice Tom Parker cited arguments from across the planet and the centuries, all leading to one source for the court’s judgment: “God.”

In his concurring opinion, Parker quoted the Book of Genesis, an obscure 17th-century Dutch Protestant theologian and Italian Catholic philosopher Thomas Aquinas, positing that Christianity, at least, is in full agreement as to when a human life starts and that God views the ending of one as a personal affront.

Except that Christianity is not in full agreement. The Bible says life begins at the first breath. It also states that even babies are not considered to be persons until they are 30 days old. So it’s only a life at birth, but not a person ?

Indeed. He referenced and endorses the Seven Mountain Mandate.
