LOL. I think this topic is hilarious. Because Jesus was clearly, without a doubt, a dues-paying, card-carrying, dyed-in-the-wool socialist liberal. The selfish but revered grab for cash and power in America, particularly by politicians, would have him overturning the money changers' tables again if He were here.
My position (for those whose minds are sufficiently open to notice this) is that religious beliefs and choices between sin and good behavior are INDIVIDUAL decisions, and thwarting or taking away those individual decisions through governmental law is not only useless and actually counter-productive, but I honestly believe they run counter to Christ's agenda. I think those choices have to be "live" choices in order for individuals. I think the PRESENCE of the abortion choice gives people an opportunity to choose GOOD as well as an opportunity to choose EVIL. Trying to legislate morality just attempts to remove the choice. I'm not supportive of that.
