I certainly love yur passion on this issue, but I think we will have to agree to disagree.

My Christian beliefs tell me that abortion is murder. If you lived next door to this same liberal mother and she was was threatening to kill her child in the back yard, would you just let it happen? I won’t speak for you, but I would physically intervene or call police. I would feel pretty bad if I watched this mother kill her child right in front of me. At this point, the mothers politics don’t mean squat to me. Abortion is no different, except that it is done in a private legal medical setting. The Bible says to help your neighbor. It doesn’t say only help those people who believe in God. Our Christian ideals and beliefs of helping every human being makes us unique. I don’t think God put us on this earth to ignore people(or babies) that are in physical or moral danger. Some of the most committed Christians in the world are those liberal
tramps who somehow, through the grace of God, were convinced the errors of their ways. We shold never stop striving to reach those souls.

I agree with you that I hate this current system. I truly despise it. But, if we don’t oppose all abortions as morally wrong, we will never have the chance to overturn the current liberal laws.

Ok... Here we are, both calling ourselves Christians, both hating the murder of babies but for me.... I personally hate the murder of anyone and like sin, in my mind there is NO degree of sin any greater than another except for blaspheme of the Holy Ghost. Murdering either an adult or a child is equally just as morally repulsive as the other and society has laws to deal with those that commit the crimes.
My issue is do I, as a Christian, have any moral responsibility to stop people from sinning? Who gives me the authority to step in and violate another person's free and sovereign will? Certainly not God. If God were into violating people's free and sovereign will no one would ever sin.
No... Christians like me are "in the world but not of the world." It's not my job to force anyone to accept God. My job is to "preach the gospel" and let God's word do it's work. I've learned to Trust God.

Now... I asked for scriptural support for forcing our enemies to stop killing themselves.
Do you have any?
