It's not merely a juridical or ethical issue. I think we do see both causes and effects in the pastoral situation. It’s not merely a juridical or ethical issue.

I was thinking about this on the way to College this morning. I was thinking back to times when Slavery was not abolished. Many Christians just ignored that issue in those days. We look back and ask questions like "how could they not have done anything?" I think abortion is even easier to overlook because we do not see the affects directly today. The children have no voice. I think we as Christians should begin praying about this and acting on those prayers in a more urgent manner. I agree Stephen. I was thinking about this on the way to College this morning.

"Abortion" is too nice of a word for infanticide that numbs us to its grotesque reality. We must make it more than an "issue" in the political realm and understand it is a kingdom issue!

Something you said bothers me with what you said and this is my problem with Obama. "A church in the west" should do something. Well YOU do something if you feel that strongly about it. I don't know the first thing about South Africa I'm just not that knowledgeble about their government. Obama is going to make this and other countries weaker because he has most of this country believing the government is the answer and not the people.
