you now realize that the semitic culture found a loop hole by "sacrificing" children to tanit as a form of post-birth abortion. this is why being anti-abortion is anti-semitic. all of this revolves around control over life and death as well as preventing malformed children from being a burden on the tribe. to be fair, in celtic, germanic and slavic cultures pre-christianity, from what i know, it was also often the custom to leave malformed children in the woods so "nature can take them back".  then there is the famous example of sparta throwing malformed children off a cliff. it was the father's duty to do so, not the mother's duty as it would corrupt her sense of motherliness.  in roman brothels there were often deep wells where prostitutes who got inevitably pregnant would throw there babies into "to get rid of them". that being said, straight up killing your child because of whoredom was always looked down upon.  reminder that pre-screening your child or invitro birth are all a form of eugenics which involves terminating life early to prevent a soul from having to endure a miserable life. my point is: abortion is a difficult topic. is abortion right? it depends.
