Because without the guns numbnuts you have no way of enforcing your other rights.

Like the right to practice Christianity.

As a Christian I will continue to fully support and fight to defend AND EXPAND my gun rights.

Someday, when Christ returns, we can beat our swords into plowshares. But not until then.

35And He said to them, “When I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They said, “No, nothing.” 36And He said to them, “But now, whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and whoever has no sword is to sell his coat and buy one. 37“For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me, ‘AND HE WAS NUMBERED WITH TRANSGRESSORS’; for that which refers to Me has its fulfillment.” 38They said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.” Luke 22:35-40 NASB

Not advancing this passage in support of gun ownership, but it is an interesting passage.

Jesus commanded us to sell our coat and buy a sword. You might want to think about doing what he says.

What the author fails to realize is that with out the 2nd amendment all the others are worthless.

Freedom of religion is embattled now, how would it be with no 2nd amendment?

This guy does not get the big picture.

Lets get to the root of all development by Christian western European man and the birth of all our liberties, rights and freedoms espoused by common law, rooted in the Magna Carta.
We fought for it as a part of our Judeo Christian Culture, and we have to defend it to keep it alive.
The minute we fail to defend and protect our rights, all the liberties, rights and freedoms will be eroded by the idiocy of the tyrannical misfits, the left and muslims.
That is our heritage and our right... and beyond that our responsibility if we want to keep the torch of liberty alive.
Let alone the advancement, achievement and progress.

Every time the question comes up we should ask “Will the government do a better job keeping illegal guns coming into the country than they did for whiskey during prohibition, stop illegal drugs from flooding our country, or stopping illegal aliens from entering our country”.

"I believe that common sense is on the side of more gun control."

I believe you are nuts.

I admit, all I read was the title: “Why Must Christians Defend Gun Rights?”

What a dumba$$ question. But for those that do not know, it’s for the same reason the Jews should have had gun rights in Nazi Germany.

Countries like Venezuela, N.Korea and Iran now wished they had a 2nd Amendment. Things would have been different there.

Since when did the Second Amendment become a chapter in the Bible?

Jesus said he was the way, the truth, and the life. Makes sense that he would shop at Cabela's.

You would think liberals (Democrats) would be the ones fighting for gun rights...they are the ones illegally using them. Almost all of the shooters have been liberals.

Because we understand the difference between murder and killing in self defense. And also understand that murder is the theft of someones life from themselves and their loved ones, that can’t be undone by people.

The libs want all Christians dead.

The only reason they are not killing us now is that we have most of the guns.

Libs hate Christians.

If you don’t believe it just look at all the comments on the news links.

I believe that common sense is on the side of more gun control.

Really, Bobby? Then you haven't been doing any actual thinking. Good guys with guns stop bad guys with guns. The known presence of good guys with guns deters bad guys. School shootings all happen in places where the good guys DON'T have guns.

Guns save lives.

Gun control kills.
