I don't watch videos, but my guess is that the speaker will be quoting from Ezekiel;
"And you took your sons and daughters, whom you had borne to me, and these you sacrificed to them to be devoured.
Were your harlotries so small a matter that you slaughtered my children and delivered them up as an offering by fire to them?" (Ezekiel ch16 vv20-21)

Im sorry, but the bible teaches that soul-life begins at first breath, out side of the womb...NOT CONCEPTION!
Hebrew word 'mibeten' literally means out of the womb. The Septuagint uses the Greek prefix 'ex' to convey the same idea. This whole pro-life vs pro-choice issue is a ploy to cause further political polarization between the religious and the secular.
I'm not so sure Yahweh is any better than "Moloch". The old testament god murdered, or had murdered, millions to satisfy his blood lust.

As to abortion. What can I say that hasn't already been said numerous times on ATS. Abortion is not, and should not be used as birth control. Personal responsibility dictates one take steps to prevent unwanted pregnancy. But abortion does serve a purpose in our society, however distasteful it may be.
Numbers 5:11-31
16 “‘The priest shall bring her and have her stand before the Lord. 17 Then he shall take some holy water in a clay jar and put some dust from the tabernacle floor into the water. 18 After the priest has had the woman stand before the Lord, he shall loosen her hair and place in her hands the reminder-offering, the grain offering for jealousy, while he himself holds the bitter water that brings a curse. 19 Then the priest shall put the woman under oath and say to her, “If no other man has had sexual relations with you and you have not gone astray and become impure while married to your husband, may this bitter water that brings a curse not harm you. 20 But if you have gone astray while married to your husband and you have made yourself impure by having sexual relations with a man other than your husband”— 21 here the priest is to put the woman under this curse—“may the Lord cause you to become a curse among your people when he makes your womb miscarry and your abdomen swell. 22 May this water that brings a curse enter your body so that your abdomen swells or your womb miscarries.”
