You’re the one who invoked divine law and later asked if tiller was an innocent life. Well, I’m asking you...is the woman innocent in this.

Hardly. But in this particular instance, the "private sin" is made actual and publicly explicit only with the help of Dr. Tiller or someone like him. He is the facilitator of the sin, the aider and abetter thereof. So long as the "private sin" remains unrealized, the unborn child is safe. Dr. Tiller was the "efficient cause," the facilitator of the sin's becoming manifest, which of course destroys the pre-born child almost every time. And he clearly embraced his role as efficient cause with a certain obscene gusto — Abortion evidently was so precious to him that he declared himself willing to go to Hell for it.

Question: Do you think Tiller was an "innocent life?"

Sin is not part of our legal system, and I dare anyone to find that term in any of our laws. Clearly, you recognizing the divine in making your assessment, which I don't disagree with. That said, you've yet to address Christs admonishment in Matthew 5:28.

Do you think Tiller was an "innocent life?"

Tiller is guilt of murder, just as any woman who has an abortion is guilty of murder. The question is, as I've stated earlier (and for those who outright approve, or even tacitly approve of his execution) where do you draw the line.

I haven't heard a reasonable response yet. Just noise.

And for those who seem to think that Roeder was acting in the service of God, then explain to me why someone would flee from an act they considered to be righteous, especially in the eyes of God.

Indeed. Thank you for sharing your insights, dearest sister in Christ!
