Yes what he is doing is sinful for the reasons I have already explained through the example of my friends sister, but if you require me to explain it more clearly for you I will.

Through his illegal protest he is causing undue harm to others that get caught in the cross fire, the end does not justify the means, period.
Yes, I thought you'd agree with his being thrown behind bars. No shocks there really, not for me anyway.

Did you want to engage the arguments of why I said that?
Separate issue, but I think the child's right to life outweighs anything unless the mothers life is at risk or there is no life in there, however you can protest without breaking the law, there are reasons for this law, as not all abortions are a violation of human rights and as such demonstrating outside a clinic can have a negative emotional impact on an individual that requires this procedure, so I think that the law is appropriate.

For example my friends sister who is a strong Christian woman became pregnant, however scans of the child revealed that the child had no brain, just an empty space where the brain should have been. There was zero chance the baby would survive outside the womb and there was significant risk to the mother if the pregnancy continued. She had to have the child removed at an abortion clinic, now imagine how she must have been feeling and imagine if she was met with protesters shouting at her and calling her a murderer or holding signs that said such things. It would have been immensely more traumatic than what she had already been through, I believe this law exists for a very good reason and this person was rightfully prosecuted.

I wish that abortions never happen, but they do and in some circumstances they are medically necessary.

Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.Amen.

Don't pay attention to my posts. I'm just trolling. Seems like the thing to do in this thread.

Dan, and this case: Christian Pastor In Vermont Sentenced To One Year In Prison After Refusing To Marry Gay Couple.

Another case of if you do the crime, you do the time, right? What he did in your view was sinful and being held accountable to that is fair and just, just like you would view any other criminal activity.

K are you interested in discussing the reasons why we believe as we do or is this going to be the same as before, where you ignore everything I said?

Because if it is going to be the same, then I don't see the point of saying anything, as there is no actual discussion taking place.

I know why you believe it, perhaps more than you yourself even realise.

So no discussion then?

If you have an actual argument please lay it out, if you don't then I don't think there is any need for me defend myself against assertions.

The case served its purpose, to show where Dan's made his bed.

Your judgement is based on a lie.

What, on your side with siding against Christians every time a socially PC issue is mentioned? It is obvious you suspect the worst of Christians, their intentions and motivations.

Christ may have "made your bed for you", but you're having an adulterous affair with the enemy, by promoting the persecution of Christians, for holding to their conscience, and misrepresenting them by saying they discriminate on the basis of someone's sexual orientation.

Facts do matter Dan.

Christian doctrine on homosexuality is very clear, I don't understand to confusion.
Homosexuality is wrong and this is explicit in the OT and the NT.
While we do NOT have the words of Jesus directly on this matter ( since it was NOT an issue during His preaching), we must do some very acrobatic mental gymnastics to somehow condone homosexual activity as Christians.

Gay marriage even more so since it is also clear that marriage UNDER GOD is only between man and woman.
