And no, abortion was not a widespread practise in ancient Israel – only a fringe minority of Death Cultists ever practised it.

Doesn’t state that it still has the same moral value as the mother, merely that life is formed inside the womb, bug surprise. It never once says anything about abortion, that alone makes the argument of Bible based pro-life laws rather shaky.

The Bible says that "You shall not murder" and “Whoever takes a human life shall surely be put to death." And "As you do not know the way the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child." Plus the verse you quoted about a man hitting a pregnant woman – when it said he shall pay a fine, it was only on the condition that NO HARM was caused to either the woman or the child. The quotation was taken way out of context to suit your narrative.
