I'm not a theologian, but I know the Adventists took a much harder stance against killing real, live people in war than they did about in the abstract in utero, and that makes rational sense to me. Everyone has a different take on scripture so I expect for other religions it will say what they want to it say.

Great, don't get one. In any case, that's not how the Adventists have historically seen it, and I'm not an Adventist now in any case.
