      I think that some good points were brought up regarding man’s law and what’s moral.

      It just comes down to… do we really see an unborn child on the same level of life as a born person.  Sure, we know that abortion is wrong… but I don’t know if we actually see born life and unborn life on the exactly the same level.

      The reason I bring that up is… if unborn life is on the same level as born life, then what happens at abortion clinics is the same as what happened in Nazi Germany in the concentration camps. Therefore, if the towns people  of the day stood up and killed the guards and liberated the people…those towns people went against the law of the land, but yet would be lauded as being heroes and moral.

      On the other hand if abortion is wrong, but the unborn is not on the same level as those who are born… we cannot make a moral equivalent to the towns people example above.

      What it really comes down to… is there a difference between the unborn and the born in God’s sight? If there is no difference, as many people say… why would the same person applaud towns people going against the law and killing Nazi guards, yet condemn an abortionist killer?

      If there is a difference, why can’t Christians just admit it and say that unborn life is life but not the same as unborn life? So a moral equivalent  between killing an abortion doctor and killing a Nazi concentration camp guard.

      EDIT TO LAST PARAGRAPH…
      If there is a difference, why can’t Christians just admit it and say that unborn life is life but not the same as born life? So a moral equivalent  between killing an abortion doctor and killing a Nazi concentration camp guard cannot be made.

      Abortion is wrong and so is murder. Both go against the Word of God. One does not justify the other. Those who are pro-life are already being vilified because of one individual’s actions. This is not the time to back down from those who would have us believe that evil is good. People of God, there’s no better time than now to insist on  speaking the uncompromising truth of God’s Word … speak the truth in love, with clarity, and with a calm demeanor. The Scripture makes it clear: God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

      There’s also a good article here on the topic with much discussion in the comments underneath: Abortion, Tiller and Murder Compounded

      Did anyone ever think that maybe Geore Tiller got killed for a different reason? maybe he owed drug dealers money? maybe he was involved in some other evils? maybe it was a random shooting?
      If a homosexual gets robbed in a back alley for his wallet, the media will say it was a hate crime and he was targeted for his sexual orientation, when in reality maybe it had nothing to do with it. Maybe George Tiller beat someone up, or made someone extremely angry…. did the murderer say “I killed George Tiller because he is an abortion doctor? why do we so quickly assume thats why he died, even though it probably is?

      If someone murders Billy Graham, we cannot say “they murdered him because he is a Christian Evangelist” maybe it was something personal….

      Where can we find that statement by the pro-life pastors who met with Tiller’s church pastor and board? Dr. Brown read it out early in the first hour show.
