Wrong! The bible does address those kinds of issues
in principle. For example, when it says that in the beginning, "God created them male and female" (Mat 19:4), are we supposed to interpret that to mean that he also created them to feel whatever gender they identify as?
And there are several bible texts that militate strongly against abortion because the divinely inspired texts presume the
personhood of the unborn. See for example Lk 1:41-44. Note carefully the phrase in v.44 "the baby in my womb leaped for joy". But a very large segment of the world believes a baby is a human being only outside the womb.
