I’m in shock having just heard of the terrible cowardly murder of Dr. Tiller, a man who put his life on the line for women in their most desperate hour. As a clergy member of St. Louis-based Faith Aloud, I share this entry from their blog:
Abortion Provider Dr. George Tiller was murdered by a gunman who shot him point-blank while he was ushering in services at Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita, Kansas. His wife, Jeanne, watched in horror from the choir loft.
The clergy and members of Faith Aloud mourn the loss of this courageous, dedicated, and religious man. He and his clinic had been the victim of violence many times before, yet he continued to provide women with desperately needed care. As one of the few providers in the country for third trimester abortions, Dr. Tiller served many women who had planned pregnancies that had gone wrong. He was deeply religious and his services to women and families at his clinic included the guidance of a chaplain.
“Dr. Tiller taught me so much about the spiritual concerns of his patients,” said the Reverend Rebecca Turner, Executive Director of Faith Aloud. “He was a kind, compassionate man who respected women and listened to them. America cannot tolerate this kind of domestic terrorism. We must put an end to the hostile rhetoric that fuels this kind of violence. We must hold people accountable who bully women on the sidewalks of abortion clinics. There is nothing “pro-life” about murder and nothing “Christian” about the hatred that fuels it. My heart goes out to abortion providers all over our country who share in this tragedy.”
Faith Aloud is an interfaith organization that supports women in all their decisions concerning problem pregnancies.

Thanks for telling me where I live. I repeat, I am not FROM NY. I do live here. There is nothing wrong with being open minded. There is a wealth of good healthy conservative things to do here. One thing we never do is use filthy F.U. Jerkoff language. We leave that to the uneducated democrat types.
So all the spin and whitewash of the MSM and their Abortionists allies who are painting a rosy picture of Tiller can never alter this truth.
I don’t avocate the killing of anyone....
That stated, the killer should recieve the maximum sentence under law......
However, I believe that when the killer is judged in the afterlife, he will be forgiven.....
I cannot reconcile the killing of the unborn, Tiller was a very evil man......

Don't let bigoted comments get in the way of a good argument.
Such comments aren't much different than those made my Sonia Sotomayor about being Latina and knowing better than white men.
If Tiller cared about the spiritual needs of his patients, he would not have murdered their children.
My God have mercy upon his soul..
Hitler liked dogs and was kind to children.
“Faith (in Satan) Aloud.”
Yeah. Okay. We really care a lot what you ghouls say. Go argue with God at your final judgement. It will likely go better for an athiest.

I was thrilled when I found out I was pregnant..........
Live by the sword, die by the sword.
“domestic terrorism.....”
this is definitely a political set up
the guy was bought and paid for
used by this sick administration to start us down this dangerous path of “domestic terrorists..”
be afraid people, bambi and his goons have started in on us
And was a one balled vegetarian. So what? Ethical doctors don’t perform abortions and the Hippocratic Oath prohibits it as should all civilized people.
Good grief. You’d think he was some sort of hero or something. Pathetic.
Off-Topic: I really want to hear each and every woman who considers herself a “pastor” preach on I Timothy 2:11 thru 3:13, and God help her if she says it’s no longer relvant.
