Humans wrote the bible claiming they were inspired by God. Prove it was God who wrote it instead.

That's true, they did. But they actually were, so their claims were true.

Proof - if the Bible is not breathed out by God, we can't know anything about God. And if we can't know anything about God, we can't know anything at all.

If you doubt this, please tell me one thing you know for sure and how you know it.

Now, the fact that sinners are sinners has two relevant aspects in this conversation.

First, nobody deserves to live even one second. Because of our sin, every single human deserves death. And because we inherit the guilt of Adam, we are guilty from birth. God is justified in putting any sinner to death at any time by any means He chooses. The fact that you and I continue to live on Earth doesn't mean we're better than anyone else. It means God has had mercy on us and has sustained our lives thus far. Babies who die are guilty in Adam. It doesn't matter whether you or I like the fact that babies are guilty in Adam. What matters is that God said so, and you and I have no grounds to stand on to criticise Him.

Given the middle road between abortion and inaction, the question naturally arises: what kind of procedures are acceptable? What makes a procedure unacceptable?
The answer is relatively simple: any procedure that is designed to crush, dismember, or in any other way remove the unborn child from his mother’s body that does not leave him intact, whole, and unharmed is morally unacceptable. Another way of putting it is that any procedure that purposefully inflicts fatal or life-threatening injuries upon the fetus is morally unacceptable. The simple reason is that any procedure that is designed to inflict fatal or life-threatening injuries to the fetus purposefully kills the fetus. Thus, performing any such procedure, even with the best of intentions, is a violation of our moral duty to not purposefully kill innocent human beings (D2).
One might wonder what an acceptable procedure for saving the life of the mother would be. For most pregnancy complications, the pregnancy can be ended prematurely, when necessary, in a morally justifiable manner, by a premature delivery of the unborn child. This can be accomplished either through induced labor, or a Caesarean section. In rare, extreme cases where this is not possible (such as a tubal pregnancy), the pregnancy can be ended prematurely in a morally justifiable manner by surgically removing the organ containing the fetus (such as the fallopian tube) from the mother’s body. Neither method of ending the pregnancy early (thus saving the life of the mother) violates the moral duties discussed above (D1* or D2). Thus, these procedures are not properly termed abortions, but rather medically-necessary pregnancy-ending life-saving procedures.

...

Based upon this analysis, abortion is never morally justified, even in cases where there are complications in pregnancy. More specifically, performing a procedure that is purposefully designed to kill the fetus is never morally justified. In life-threatening situations, it is morally justifiable to deliver the fetus from the womb prematurely, provided that the intent of the delivery procedure is to leave the fetus intact, whole, and unharmed, with the best chance possible for his/her survival outside of the womb. In cases where the fetus cannot be delivered in such a manner (such as an ectopic pregnancy), the organ containing the fetus may be removed in order to save the life of the mother. In no case, however, is a procedure purposefully designed to kill the unborn child ever medically necessary, or morally justified

"God is in and of Himself the fountainhead and source of all reason, intelligibility, morality, good, truth, love, holiness, wisdom, and power. By definition, what God does is always good and right. No human being has knowledge, power, authority, or standing to call God to the dock and judge His actions as right or wrong. We have no basis on which to even ask the question. What every human must do is to bow to His knowledge and will. There is no standard of good higher than Him, by which we might figure out whether He conforms to it."
