Our Statement Against Violence
A personal belief held by those who created this web site:
We oppose any form of violence done in the name of the
Pro-Life cause. We believe the very term "Pro-Life" is the antithesis of
violence. As Christians, we are called to abhor the sin of abortion, yet to love all
of God's people. This is not a love that overlooks wrong. Rather, it
recognizes the worth of every individual. Christ died for the born and the unborn
alike. If we offer violence and hatred, how are we any different than the rest of
the world? If we can offer the love of Christ instead, then we give our
"enemies" a glimpse of God.
"Shouldn't we all take a strong stand against abortion?" Yes, that is
absolutely our belief! And to Pro-Lifers around the country, the violence at abortion
clinics - the bombings and shootings - is sickening. Yet, that violence no more negates
the moral wrong of abortion occuring inside those clinics than the violence of the Civil
War negated the moral wrong of slavery. As long as innocent human beings are being legally
killed in this nation, the Pro-Life movement will fight for their right to life - and we
will do it without violence.

has imposed as well as a discussion of the violence.
