WICHITA, Kan. — A man who said he killed prominent Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller in order to save the lives of unborn children was convicted Friday of murder.

The jury deliberated for just 37 minutes before finding Scott Roeder, 51, of Kansas City, Mo., guilty of premeditated, first-degree murder in the May 31 shooting death.

When Jesus tells us in His word not to murder, then that is what we must conclude he would do.

God has clearly told us that we are not to commit premeditated murder. Jesus took that commandment and made it even stricter by telling us that we are not even to hate anyone.

We don't have to ask a cute little bracelet question to know. We have already been told in the Bible what to do, and we know from His example.

btw, if you believe as Scripture teaches, that God is omnipresent, then Jesus was in the room when the babies were killed.

The problem of God's allowing evil to occur and "doing nothing" is something that Christians have struggled with for 2000 years, and has no easy answers.

We are not going to solve the problem of evil in relation to the Goodness of God here on this thread. The one thing we know for sure is that we are not to compound evil with evil.

Do your part to combat the evil, but don't cheer murder as if it were good. It's not.

I answered your question.

Twice.

In two different ways.

Don’t hold your breath with these apologists for infanticide like OhioWfan. That is exactly what they are.

They are ocntent with the ststus quo...living their lives all comfy and materialistically, too scared and too protective of their comforts to even give a word praise to those whose heroic actions end the baby butchering careers of the new American doctor Mengeles.

They are the neo-Pharisees...

Now your emotionalism has led you to bearing false witness and ugly libel?

And this is in the name of morality that you make such vile and reprehensible comments?

Wow. How deep into sin will you go in the name of being "pro-life?"

Don't answer that. You have already proven that there are no limits to your anger and spite.

I would like to know what you consider 'idiot replies'...

Roeder confessed...Roeder considered the cost & justice will be applied.

But have you ever considered that our once great nation corporately condemns babies to death every single day....50 million at last count?

Did you know that?....I think you should.

Did you know that for almost 20 years Tiller has had no hesitancy in killing babies almost/or already full term....just because he could.

My granddaughter was born 8 weeks early--only 2-1/2lbs, and now... by God's Grace.... she is a bright beautiful 5 year old.

Many of the babies he killed were that size...weighed that much...or more!....but they will never grow into precious little boys and girls.

It should break our hearts for ALL the deaths of these innocent ones Tiller killed.

Perhaps you consider my reply an 'idiot one'....

...but somehow, one day ....a long time ago....our nation lost it's corporate soul.

Unfortunately a fetus is currently afforded no such protection. Until the laws are changed (and fat chance of that happening), fetuses will not be recognized as living persons.”

There is NO SUCH THING as a fetus. Women don't give birth to "fetuses." They give birth to children. This is an abortionist's crafted word. Why fall for the deceptions of the left?

.....and malicious name-calling and vilifying of real pro-lifers....just as the left does.

They disgust me as much or more than the out-of-the-closet pro-baby killers do. At least they’re honest about their belief.

I would say the only "malicious name-calling" going on is those of you who are saying that other pro-lifers are pro-infanticide because we believe God's word that committing cold blooded murder is a sin.

If anyone is dishonest it's you, who claim to be pro-life, yet sanction first degree murder.

And you, who implied that I was going to hell because I didn't believe Tiller should be murdered, are at the bottom of the heap.

btw, your one month stay on FR makes me wonder what leftist site you’re trolling from, pretending to be pro-life and attacking those of us who really are.....

You’re the troll. You pretend to be pro-life but you’re anything but that. Follow the laws of God? You started this with your very first post to me of rudeness and name-calling. Yeah, you’re a real patron of God’s word.

Hypocrite.

She’s off the deep end of rationality?

Why don’t you try dipping just the tips of your toes in the deep pool of stalwart, gut-wrenching morality? Or just go back to sleep in your safe little statist cocoon of social acceptance where you never have to take a real stand for right vs. wrong, good vs. evil, and reality vs. theory.

The thousands upon thousands of late-term abortions, which is what we’re talking about here - not just ordinary, early abortions - were killings of human babies completely viable and days away from birth. These were people, people like you and me and Eleni and the members of your family. Real, human people. Stopping Roeder was no different from stopping Dr. Menghele. Do you know who he was?

You spoke of God’s law in another post. How do you know Roeder wasn’t carrying out God’s law? It would not be the first time God smote some evil SOB through the hands of another man. The fact that Tiller stated and did carry on the late-term killings after man’s law failed to stop him tends to support this possibility. Or maybe you think man’s law rises above God’s law.

A troll who thinks that calling a dumb question a dumb question (one about a "duel" LOL!) is being rude and mentioning the fact that he signed on last month is "name-calling."

I don't have to defend that I'm pro-life to a newbie troll. I am, and have been for decades. If anyone needs to defend himself, it's you.

And I'm not really interested in what 1 month trouble-makers have to say, so good night, chill.

(Murder is a sin).

Chill-—That’t the sorry response of OhioW to the real destruction that this nation is facing-—to check up on dates of memberships.

Note to OhioW: sin is what Tiller and the other baby killers do. Roeder is a hero for trying to slow down the slaughter.

He took the law into his own hands. Let him pay the price. Otherwise, don’t be surprised when fundamentalist nutters of other ilks expect the same consideration for their own beliefs.

But, let me ask you...was Roeder justified (doesn’t mean innocent by our nations laws) in stopping a mass killer of babies?

No. If not, what moral basis would you provide for saving lives? At the very least, the murder has to be imminent, with a specific victim or victims in mind.

So, Roeder would have been justified in shooting that guy at Ft. Hood just as he was opening fire up his victims. However, Tiller may have had a change of heart on that Sunday or on the way to work on Monday morning.

They are at arms length from the actual act of killing babies.

Adolph Hitler was always at arm's length of the Nazi Concentration Camp Killing Machine. With that being the case, do you also believe that there would have been no justification in killing Adolph Hitler in 1942?
