The Pro-life movement, in my assessment, is not radical enough because even they can't seem to draw this logical conclusion. While I don't intend to kill anyone myself, I believe that doing so is morally justified and necessary in defense of the innocent and defenseless—abortion doctors are neither and babies are both.

Well if it gets to the point that many Pro-Lifers start going around killing people, there are going to be a lot of people that will go out and mow down Pro-Lifers as they parade in front of clinics. Sure you want to go that route? Sounds like your Taliban faction of the Fundy Right is ready to Jihad. Hope you get your 72 virgins, its not likely that First Degree Murderers are going to Heaven.

Because Paul Hill killed a couple of people outside an abortion clinic, he's a murderer. If a few hundred people had done the same thing, and were successful in eliminating legalized abortion in this country, they would be called "a just, righteous movement of principled people."

I'm not necessarily arguing in favor of what Hill did -- I just think it's kind of interesting how the issue is approached.

As I suspected from your first post, you don't have a clue about true religious faith. If you did, you would know that murderers certainly can go to Heaven. In short, it is not our behavior that condems or saves us. It is a pure act of will on God's part.
