For every officer of government, and every candidate for public office, to make this resolution, and to then act accordingly without wavering.

While a good statement (and one that I agree with) this hardly constitutes a "plan".

“Intermediate steps” are fine, if they don’t sacrifice the moral, natural law, constitutional principles that argue for the defense of innocent life.

Sadly, most of those steps that the “pro-life” fund-raising, vote-gathering industry have been pushing do sacrifice the principles. They’re not steps forward. They’re steps back, and over a cliff.

Here now, we might be talking. What might some of these appropriate "intermediate steps" be? The whole reason that the majority of the Pro-Life movement operates on the strategy that it does is that the strategy seems to be the only one that will work given the political situation that currently exists -- so what are some concrete means of securing this ideal, within the political circumstances as they are now?

Any that don’t sacrifice the principles.

Look, the course I advise requires faith. It requires Christians to quit making deals with the devil.

It requires the kind of attitude George Washington was talking about when he said, “Let us raise a standard to which the wise and honest can repair; the rest is in the hands of God.”

I truly believe that if Christians would simply return to the founding self-evident truths of our nation’s founding, and quit compromising, the practice of child-killing would end in our land forthwith.

If we will make that kind of commitment I believe He will raise up leaders for us. He will give us a righteous strategy, one that will work so well on the practical level that the world will stand silent in amazement.
