PCA are the good guys, right?
Yes, by God's grace, that is our desire.
Here is an excerpt from the PCA position paper on abortion:
We are convinced Scripture forbids abortion. The premise of the personhood of the unborn child and the premise of the universal validity of the Sixth Commandment, if true, necessitates the conclusion that abortion is wrong. In a day in which situation ethics has left its mark, the question easily arises in the minds of some, "But what if?" The familiar objections are then presented: population control, economic hardships, unwanted children, psychological or physical health of the mother, rape or incest, deformed children, and protection for the mother's life. We have not dealt with these particular cases with the exception of where the mother's life is threatened. Neither have we dealt with frequently raised objections such as "freedom of choice" and dangers of illegal abortions. There are two primary reasons for not going into detail. One is practical. It would unnecessarily enlarge this report, and these objections have been adequately dealt with in the OPC and RPCES Reports and in other readily available sources. The other reason is to emphasize the principle set forth in this report. Abortion is wrong; it is sin. God as the righteous and holy Judge will not permit sin to be justified by human "situations." Thus the practical application in each of these cases is the consistent application of God's absolute prohibition and the comfort derived from the knowledge that our greatest good is dependent upon our obedience to God.
Yeah, this guy sounds like he got lost on his way to a PCUSA church.
So it is said. This jackass is NOT one of the good guys.
I thought we were.
Generally, middle of the road. Some better, some a lot worse out there. The urban and "Metro" presbyteries tend to be more liberal; some of the others are solid. Churches should be evaluated on a case by case basis. The denomination does seem to be headed in the wrong direction.
PCA are the good guys, right?
One set of them, yes.
