'Pro Life' does not mean you're against the death penalty, the killing of animals, or killing in war.

But since we are on this topic, I find it rather jocular that liberals are generally for the killing of innocent babies by means of abortion, but are not okay with the killing of convicted murders by means of the death penalty...somethings definetly wrong with that picture.

I'm just pointing out that Christians define the morality of killing as they see fit and are not at all consistant about it.

I could kill an animal, flip the switch for an electric chair, and blow someone up in a war and get a pat on the back from a Christian.

Remove a couple cells within a body however... all hell breaks loose.

Because religion is a lie at its core it is impossible to be morally objective or consistent when under its influence.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
