First off, Einstein, the Bible passage is not about abortion. It's about men fighting and a pregnant woman gets injured.

If the fetus dies, then it is "eye for eye," "tooth for tooth."

That means "fetus for fetus."

The passage does not say abortion is murder, Einstein. The passage is about appropriate punishment for someone who harms a pregnant woman. If you click on the link above, you can get over a dozen translations of the passage. None use the word "abortion."

That is how to interpret the Bible literally. A conservative interprets according to what he thinks it should say.
