It’s definitely an emotional subject, Siderite so terms like ‘murder’ may well tend to inflame … as might repetitions of ‘ridiculous’ if you don’t like the argument.
I’d like to ask if it just Christian pro lifers that you have problems with … Or all pro lifers? And also whether you are sure that there is no ongoing care and concern from Christian groups and charities who take a pro life stance. I support a Christian charity that is definitely pro life yet also offers a range of services and resources to support mothers and children … and offers therapeutic counselling to the many women ( and some men) who come to find relief from pained consciences after an abortion which, in some cases, have plagued them for years. It is not the only Christian charity I know of which does the same. Maybe they are rare exceptions to your rule … but I don’t think so.
I am against any belief infringing upon the rights of others. I have nothing against Christian groups (or any other religion) preaching their beliefs, such as anti-abortion beliefs, to the pulpit. I have nothing against them forming such charities, though I am sceptical about their methods and beliefs. I have no right to interfere with their beliefs, so long as it doesn’t impact the rights of others.
However, my main gripe is that the reciprocation isn’t there. It’s perhaps understandable why they do it, but the influence over state law is too much. They are entitled to their beliefs, but law shouldn’t be based on Christian, Islamic or any other religious belief. That’s what leads to misery for those of use not of that religion.
