I definitely agree with you here. I thought I would go to several other forums on the NET just to catch up on some comments from a mixture of
pro-choice and
pro-life Christians on this very issue. Ended up being mostly the
pro-choice crowd doing the commenting. I thought that
some of the comments would be
more than interesting to say the least. Here we go...
Christian Forums Comments on Abortion [and]
As a pro-choice Christian... Where do I Stand?
- I c
hoose NOT to judge and not to try and take away their right to choose abortion.
- I
choose to leave the judging to God and people who put themselves on the level of God. Abortion is there right to choose.
- My personal view--which I think is the view of most
pro-choice Christians I know--is that while I would never have an abortion except in cases where my life was at risk or I had been a rape or incest victim,
it isn't my place to stop those who don't share my beliefs from having an abortion.
- What sums up the "
pro-choice" argument as clearly as anything ever written.
They simply do not value the life within.
- The purpose of abortion is to end pregnancy. The death of the embryo or foetus is
only a consequence of that.
- Many
pro-life advocates believe that women who get abortions are themselves victims, and the real culprits are the doctors who kill the unborn and liberals who mislead women into thinking that abortion is "just a choice" like choosing which neighborhood to live in.
-
Pro-choice is a deceptive term used by abortion supporters to
reframe the killing of unborn babies as an individual right.
- There are times when someone says they are
pro-choice, they are only interested in
preserving the lifestyle of the mother alone. God's gift of life is of no consequence in that choice.
- When someone says they're
pro-choice, they really mean to say they want to
sleep around without the possibility of getting
pregnant.
- Being a
pro-choice "quote"
christian is like someone being a pro-rape christian or a pro-murder christian. Just can't exist. Unless the person is ok with allowing various sins just because the world pressure them into thinking Gods law doesn't matter when it comes to moral things.
- I think a
pro-choice christian is a christian who has been deceived by Satan into thinking a human being isn't a human being until they reach a particular point in development. I believe that when God said He knew us in the
womb it means He knew us from
conception.
- When we become a new distinct human being is settled science. Human life begins at conception. However,
pro choice advocates are science deniers when it comes to embryology.
- The Scripture says that murderers will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Therefore there are some tragic and rude shocks awaiting some
pro-choice professing "Christians" when they arrive at the Judgement.
- Another said.... a
pro-choice Christian woman is one who chooses abstinence, whereas, a
pro-choice Christian man chooses celibacy until marriage.
- This commenter said.... In a sense we are ALL "
pro-choice" Christians in that all men have a choice between obedience to God or not obeying God. What we are not is "
consequence free" because there is always a consequence for our actions and the consequence of sin is death. So in respect of abortion of course we are
pro-choice, everybody has a choice every day.
But in a civilization that agrees with the Creator the
consequence for
abortion will be the same as for any taking of a human life and that is
murder.
- Anyone who is
pro-choice is supporting deliberately killing a human that would otherwise live. To me that is murder and I believe that when God judges them He will take the support of murdering millions and possibly billions of babies into account.
- I know there are times when abortion may be
justified but for me it would only be where the mother or baby would die if the pregnancy continued, and I know a Christian couple who had to make that choice but even then they said it was difficult to deliberately kill their child.
- A
pro choice Christian is one who apparently doesn't know when human life begins. It isn't really spiritual rocket science to figure out from the scriptures which trimester Jesus became fully God and
fully man. It was at
conception in case anyone is wondering.
- I
suspect that in the Judgment a great crowd of aborted babies... perhaps 60+ million (just from America) alone... will be in adult form
waiting to ask YOU...
this question, "Why did you never give me a chance at life?"
