Were These Homicides Justified ?

I have to reluctantly agree.

I'm not sure of the full circumstances, I assume the abortionist and driver were gunned down somewhere other than in the midst of murdering a womb child. That's pure vigilantism, rather than immediate defense.

A scenario:
A baby is in a stroller. Someone is just about to plunge scissors into the base of its skull and suck its brain through a tube.

What do you do about it?

Are you relectant to agree because I posted it? :-D Just teasing you.

And while I detest hypothetical situations - killing doesn't have to be an option - push the stroller out of the way, push the person out of the way, knock the scissors out of the persons hand, etc etc...

And when an armed and violent intruder enters my home, I should run out the back door.

Somehow, I don't think so.

The abortion doctor killed the defenseless unborn, and the law backs him up. What is your position on following the government's law allowing the murder of unborn children?

Solo - you should know my position from other threads. However, I believe that we are to follow the Word of God. When the government violates the law of God - then we must follow God and not man.

However, the Word is clear on killing - therefore, Hill is not justified, and I seriously doubt that God "ordered" him to kill that Dr.

So I take it that you are against doctors that kill unborn children and all those who proclaim the right to a woman's choice to kill unborn children.

I suspect that you will vote against any and all who are pro-choice candidates in future political elections. Great!

When have I ever suggested that I supported abortion or those that perform it?

Now you will just have to convice me to vote! :-D

You condemned the ole boy for shooting the abortionist, but you did not say a thing about those who kill the unborn children.

Perhaps I missed a post of yours that condemned abortionists.

How did the apostles respond when armed and violent men came to get them?

I believe Stephen forgave them!
 
It never ceases to amaze me what human scum will do to for the sake of non-existent deity or delusional morality.

"My God told me that you should not kill fetuses, so he told me to kill you!"

Of course, god gets a free ride, even though miscarriages happen and they could be stopped by god.

This is just like radical muslims threatening violence for those Mohamed cartoons...

Perhaps I missed the point of the OP - I thought it was about Hill.

If an ole boy comes up to my children or wife to harm them with deadly force, he is on his way to Sheol.

Widen your perspective a little bit so that your myopic perception is overcome!!!

The ole boy that was killed by Hill was killed because he killed unborn children! :o

Don't worry about commenting on killing unborn children. You have already proclaimed your proclivity to the liberal slant on issues, and I know how difficult it is for liberals to comment on conservative positions in a positive manner.

Geeeshhh.... "shoot" me for staying on topic with the OP!

If you don't vote, you default on the right to squawk on any issues.

If you are a liberal, by all means, don't vote.

Perhaps another topic for a new thread - or perhaps it is okay to expand away from the OP!?!?!
 
Shouldn't "But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also... Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you ..." figure into this somehow?

Some Christians see this as Jesus telling people to return hate with love. They see the crucifixion of Jesus as him showing that evil should be submitted to instead of resisted.

Obviously this does not apply to all Christians, so I was wondering why there is such a difference in perspecive on this passage.

I would suggest, that this too should be it's own thread.

However, Jesus submitting to the cross was in no way submission to evil - rather it showed that evil does not have a hold on us - those that believe in the sacrifice of Christ.
 
Protecting one's family with deadly force does not require one to hate.

It only requires vigilance.

If the death of myself or my family at the hands of evil served a greater purpose, as did the death of our Lord and Savior, that would be one thing.

Otherwise, "Never mind the dog, beware of the owner."
