“I don’t think violating God’s laws can be categorized as “sacrificing” oneself. I have said that I believe that I would do the morally right thing under any circumstances, and I stand by that.”

Roeder did not violate God’s law, he violated a secular governmental law that in truth is an illegal law to begin with.

“As I said before, there is no qualification in Jesus’ words that we should not murder. There is no inkling of “if the guy is bad enough or has done enough wrong things” it’s OK. It is morally wrong to murder.”

Again, Roeder did not murder...he brought to justice a murderer. You prefer to allow the murder to continue...that is your dilemma or paradox to morally deal with. I have my own...I would not sacrifice my life for this, but I recognize the heroism in Roeder for doing so and for so bravely telling the complete truth in his defense.

“I will continue to be a strong pro-life advocate, supporting the fight against this holocaust, donating to crisis pregnancy centers, supporting pro-life candidates. But I will never, ever, ever advocate violating the laws of God by supporting murder. Period.”

I wonder though...if we support the persecution of those who truly do make a difference in the fight for life if we can state that we are really pro life...maybe we are just like the people who donate twenty bucks to the Salvation Army each Christmas to make ourselves feel philanthropic...and hence, like good people.

I am glad you do what you do for the pro life movement, don’t get me wrong. We are dealing with deep issues here that deserve reflection, that’s all.

This is an outright lie. Stop it.

(I prefer to end this conversation, but will not allow you to completely mischaracterize what I said in such an egregious manner).

State your views freely, but state them truthfully.

Again. I have finished my arguments based on Scripture. GOD will repay. We are not to murder.

Tell us how your reasoning would apply in this ongoing case:

“The two women, Patricia Imani and Brianna Herrera, admit that they lay in the offramp from Interstate 5 in an effort to block the Strykers.

Both women said they should be found not guilty because they had to protest and although it was illegal, it prevented a greater harm.

“We have an obligation to resist, not just a right to resist. That is what these protests have been about since we started to do the human blockades against the Strykers,” Imani said.”

How are you different than these two women? I can’t see any difference.
