So they can kill all the babies they want but posting the names of the killers and then reporting on their health status makes us look bad..... I see.

[Dakmar]

It's something the media uses to depict the entire movement as a bunch of wild-eyed vigilantes is all I'm saying.

[Dakmar]

Thank you for posting that. It sums up my philosophy much more eloquently than I was able to.

[Khepera]

They are going to do that no matter what we do or say. We should not back down just because they call us names.

Whaaa you called me a bad name Whaaaa!
Sounds like a Michael Jackson Tune.

[Dakmar]

You know me well enough to know I don't care what people call me. My concern is with their ability to manipulate the sheeple.

[Khepera]

Well ok but, remember how upset you got when I called you my friend? Man you really have a temper!

I have to agree with Dakmar. I'm as pro-life as you can be, and do not think the tactics of many abortion protesters are very effective. I think quiet, logical education about abortion itself, the types of doctors who perform them, the circumstances under which most abortions are performed, etc. is much more effective than loud, shock tacticts.

Instead of seeing signs with the products of abortion, I'd like to see signs with the products of life. Maybe this picture with the quote "This baby is safer in an old man's hands than in its own mother's womb" would provoke some thought.

They WILL try to kill you.

Are you threatening me with heaven?

;)

Shalom.

[ArGee]

Well put, except that some people might take being called "anti-Christ" as being called a name.

For some reason that I can't understand, even atheists think Christ was good and anti-Christ is bad.

It couldn't possibly have to do with having the law written on their hearts. There must be some other reason.

Shalom.

As Khepera said, it doesn't matter what we do, the media is going to manipulate the sheeple.

If I created a handbill tomorrow that said, "Please pray for the abortionist, Dr. Joe Schmoe. Pray for his health and wellbeing. Pray that he not fall prey to extremists in the pro-life movement who sometimes try to harm abortionists and their families. Also pray that he will come to know Christ and stop his abortion practice." If I tried to hand out copies of such a handbill the media would paint me as an extremist. They would not print the text of the handbill.

Sooner or later, we have to define the terms of the culture war or we will lose.

Shalom.

There's only so much even I can put up with. :-)

No, the people that are nuts are the ones that are killing their babies.

Yeah! Kill them all! </sarcasm mode>
