I was asked to prove the christian moral framework logically and will start with abortion as it is the most disputed subject.
This is the logical proof of why abortion is morally wrong unless in the circumstance that giving birth may lead to death or severe harm to the mother, death of the child, or in the case that the child has such severe deformities or mental defections that it will die shortly after birth. In all other circumstances it is morally wrong to perform an abortion. This proof assumes the inherent value of human life and will base itself on the belief that for any action to be morally good it must be just.
I will first prove why it is morally wrong to kill a human in all other cases than the aforementioned. Then I will prove why an unborn human has the same inherent value as a born human.
Scenarios where you kill a human for the same reason some people kill their unborn children:
-Not killing the human would cause inconvenience to you for many months ending with a 6 hour period of physical pain and you are responsible for putting yourself in this position. In this scenario it is morally wrong to kill a human as a life is more valuable than a period of inconvenience. Especially if you are the reason such a choice must be made.
-Not killing the human would mean economical hardship to you and you are responsible for putting yourself in this situation. In this scenario it is morally wrong to kill a human. The human life is worth more than any sum of money for which giving away that money doesn’t lead to starvation and death, which is not the case in this scenario. Especially when you are the reason such a choice must be made.
-Not killing the human would mean an end to your degenerate behaviour (partying, whoring, drinking etc.) In this case it is morally wrong to kill a human as you cannot justify a moral wrong by claiming it leads to a negative consequence. Then you are giving reason for why it is wrong.
-You were forced into any of the aforementioned scenarios (rape). The only effective difference between leading yourself into these scenarios or being forced into them is psychological. Your temporary psychological suffering is not worse than the death of a human and therefore it is still morally wrong to kill a human in this scenario. Note that the psychological suffering is temporary as you do not have the obligation to keep supporting the human after birth as there are adoption centres and foster care that can take care of your child if you so wish.
-The human would, according to you, suffer more throughout his/her life as a result of dysfunctional family, economical hardship or other than if you killed them. Since the person in question is not capable of deciding that them selves and you do not have mandate over their life taking such action is trespassing their right to life and is therefore morally wrong.
An unborn human has the same value as a born human:
First we will establish that an unborn human is human through:
Biology- They have the DNA of Homo Sapiens
Law- Irrelevant as law should be based on morality and not viceversa
Then we will establish that an unborn human is alive:
Biology- Their cells are replicating and converting energy which implies he/she is alive
Law- Irrelevant as law should be based on morality and not viceversa
Anatomy- There is the argument that brain activity is needed or the person is considered dead however this only applies to born humans as they have no way of gaining their brain activity back through any means other than a miracle while the unborn human will gain brain activity
Then there are arguments that an unborn living human is not as valuable as a born living human:
-An unborn human is not capable of surviving outside the womb. This implies that people in need of continued medical assistance are not equal to people without that need which is unjust and therefore wrong.
-An unborn human is not conscious/aware. This implies that all humans that are asleep are unequal to humans that are awake which is unjust and therefore wrong.
-An unborn human does not have any memories or experiences and is therefore not valued. This implies that younger humans are less worth than older humans and that people experience long term memory loss through dementia or other are less valued. This is unproductive and unjust and therefore wrong.
-An unborn human doesn’t look like a born human. This is irrelevant as we have established that it still is a human. It also implies that people should be valued based on how much they look like a regular born human meaning people with deformities or mutilations or less valued. This is unjust and therefore wrong.
To summarize:
An unborn human is proven to be a living human and has also proved to be as valuable as a born human. Killing a human for aforementioned reasons has been proven to be morally wrong and therefore performing abortion on your child in any case except when the mother or child will die during or soon after pregnancy is morally wrong.
