26 X world Champs said, “You actually have the "sense" to be religiously against abortion but pro-death penalty and to compound that convoluted thinking you get to judge for yourself what is religiously proper and what is not...you ignore the parts of the Bible that you disagree with....WOO HOO! WOO HOO!”
What parts is he ignoring could you give specifics?
Anyone who truly calls themselves Christian and who knows and stands on scripture could not be pro-abortion. If you did a deductive Bible study on this you would see that the overwhelming evidence is on the side of life and Gods love for children both out of the womb and in the womb.
Sure I guess you could claim that you’re a Christian and still be pro-choice, but it goes against what God says. You can claim you’re a Christian and commit adultery, steal, kill, lust but it still remains wrong by scripture.
Standing in a garage doesn’t make you a car, anymore than sitting in church makes one a Christian.
IMO Christians who claim to be pro-choice……DO NOT READ,KNOW, STUDY OR PRAY ON SCRIPTURE. I hate to say this but I think the majority of Christians today are in name only. Its minimal head knowledge and no heart knowledge.
Who cares what the poll says, its one sided on here anyway. A few conservative Christians against a majority of non-religious liberals.

Let's just say that I follow the morals of Jesus, as described in the Bible, better than most people who call themselves Christians do.”
Lets put it this way……as Christians we are told that we can judge actions and NOT HEARTS, NOT EVEN OUR OWN. Are you judging people here?
I think we are told not to judge one another, something the Bible condemns (Romans 14:10; James 4:11) In Luke 6:41,42 Jesus speaks of seeing a speck in a brother’s eye. In John 7:24 He said, "Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment."
I’d be careful about how you boast, its not Christ-like at all.
“Let me get this straight? In YOUR world anyone who is Pro-Choice is NOT a Christian...anyone? So the MAJORITY of Americans are not Christian by your standard therefore Christians can stop trying to impose their personal beliefs unto our government, i.e. being anti-choice or pro prayer in school?”
I think you are right…….that the majority of Christians in the United States don’t stand on scripture, like I said they are Christian in name only. They do not put Christs teaching into PRACTICE.
“So if you think (and I don't know if you do or not) that all Jews are going to "hell" simply for being Jewish or all humans who live in parts of the world that Christianity has never touched are also going to hell then I think that view of religion is as mutated as the so-called fanatical religions that Christians seem to snub their nose at...like when Doughgirl calls everyone she disagrees with "PAGAN" and she uses it as a slur, a put-down a personal attack…”
What is the definition of the word pagan? I do not call everyone a pagan and I do not use it as a put down. You read the definition, what does it say?

The New Testament records what Jesus said.
He did not say, “I am a way”; He said, “I am the way.” So is there any other way?
In John 14:6 Christ said, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
So do you need to believe in Christ by His own admission to go to heaven?
